Still ill seven months after giving birth.

Hi. I was wondering if anyone else suffers from "pregnancy problems" this long after giving birth. My son is now seven months old and I suffer from dizziness, sickness and lower back pain. I was ill a few months ago which resulted in me getting a swollen lymph node and since then my symptoms have got worse. My doctor just won't take me serious and it's starting to really worry me. Does anyone have any advice? Thanks

I would push your Doctor for blood tests. I was still exhausted when DD was 5-6mo and my GP insisted it was just from taking care of the baby - when the results came back I had an under active thyroid and needed to go straight on medication.

Hi. I've had a blood test done for my thyroid and a full blood count which have come back as normal. I just dont know what's going on and it really takes away from what should be a great time with my son.
