By which I mean stopping bf altogether, not after the baby has had a feed! I stopped bf my DD 12 days ago, at 25 months, and couldn't remember this happening when I stopped with my older child. It's not quite like the thirst of the first few months of feeding a newborn / small baby, but I do recall something like this in pregnancy with DD. Could it be hormones adjusting? I definitely had a bad time with my bladder when I was pregnant - including being hospitalised and catheterised with acute urinary retention when I was about 11 weeks pregnant. I feel constantly dehydrated and am peeing hugely and frequently, even compared to having a small baby and bf-ing. Part of me thinks I should check out diabetes, but the timing seems a bit suspciously coincidental and the other part of me thinks I should just watch and wait.
Any ideas or vaguely similar experiences would be appreciated
