Posting here for traffic. I had a lovely baby girl 5 weeks ago (2nd baby) who is doing well and putting on lots of weight (bf). My recovery has been ok in general however I’ve been getting hot flushes and panic attack type feelings which have made me feel lightheaded/like I need to eat lots?? Even if I have eaten well. I feel really out of sorts and unwell, like I’m not ‘there’ and a bit panicky. It takes a little while to pass and I feel scared. It’s early days in recovery but has anyone had similar? I am getting some sleep but obviously it’s broken at the moment. Could it be low estrogen? I feel ok the mornings (and actually fairly good) seems to be after lunch and late afternoons it hits.
