To think breast feeding is causing my BO?

Hello,

I am normally a very cold blooded person, the sort who wears a jumper in July. However, when pregnant with DC3, I got the raging overheating lurgy and was boiling hot from day 1.

He is now 4 mo and I still haven't cooled down. I am so so so hot ALL OF THE TIME and just can't cool down. It is HORRIBLE!

I sleep on top of the covers and have to have all the windows open all the time. I CAN'T STAND IT!!

The only other time I am this hot is when I have my period which is what makes me think it's hormonal. I also have terrible BO when I get my period and I am getting it again now. I've heard from a few people that they also suffered from over heating and BO when breast feeding.

Any thoughts? How do I make it stop (the heat/BO not the BF!).

I am changing clothes and washing my stinky pits every couple of hours.

Night time seems to be worse. I shower before bed and before I've fallen asleep I have proper BO. Not just a little whiff, full on stinking!

that's probably why I haven't had sex for so long

And I'm so so so hot.

I get up in the middle of the night and stand in the garden to cool down!
