Night sweats

[SCK2024]

I have a now 8 week old baby girl.

breastfeeding exclusivel and or expressing/bottle.

from day 3 I have had really bad night sweats.
I don’t remember it ever being this bad with my first or at all.

every night bedding is saturated 😓 it’s running me down as it wakes me up freezing and wet.

i wear floaty and thin cotton shorts and top and the fan is on.

what can I do to help stop this?

first of all have you spoken to a doctor/ had blood tests to rule out anything more serious going on. Please don’t presume it’s postnatal. I put night sweats down to peri menopause and it turned out more serious than that !

I had this with both my kids when they were babies - I can’t remember when exactly but I know it was the early weeks / months from birth.
it did settle down on its own for me and didn’t cause me too much concern as a lot of my friends were also experiencing.
Recommend you drop your health visitor a message/ GP and see what they can advise.
Hopefully it calms down for you soon - these pp hormones can be crazy!
