3rd baby - bounced back after first 2, although they were mixed fed and so I got a bit more sleep.
Currently about 60 hours post birth. Midwife checked me yesterday and all was fine. Am EBF so no experience of this sort of recovery. Newborn has been feeding all night and not really slept. I've had about 2 hours and feel horrific. Griping pain in tummy, shooting pains up back, as well as period type pain, a bit shaky and curled into a ball from the pain. Bleeding is normal - but have passed one 50p sized clot. Regularly taking paracetamol but they're not doing anything. Feeling very sick.
To confuse matters my older two children were each sick once yesterday (but had no other accompanying symptoms, felt fine and are fine now).
Is this a call the midwife scenario, or is this all normal? Wondering if I'm just massively tired and all the feeding has got my uterus going into overdrive.
