Hiya,
Im 7weeks postnatel, and since giving birth to my dd, i have had severe headackes, nausea and really bad dizzy spells, that seem to last most of the day. Im constantly tied, worse than i was on my ds, and im that bad i dont hear my dd if she wakes up over night. Im feeling exhausted. Could it be my iron levels? I feel similer to after my ds when i was on iron tablets.
Ive had blood tests but need to go back to do another one!

if it's iron levels, whjich it certainly cou,ld be then go to boots and buy some spatone water

because it's liquid you absorb more of the iron from it than you do from tablets... and you don't get constipated!

Chears starlover,
Can you buy it over the counter or is it perscription only?

It could be dehydration. I had it with dd due to it being hot (same if you're in a heated house) and breastfeeding. Didn't realise how much more I needed to drink. Still get like that now if I don't drink enough (and not bfing now)
