You need to be seen by your doctor straight away.

I'd speak to your midwife as could be an infection somewhere.

(I had some retained membranes they hadn't picked up that caused an infection that needed a specific antibiotic eventually but took a while to be swabbed / get it confirmed etc and sweats & chills was a symptom.)

Could it be mastitis OP?
Your milk will have been in with several days by now, night sweats are definitely normal enough but fever and chills, I don't think so!

I did and had a blocked duct which can be dangerous - you need to call GP OP

Sounds like mastitis I had the same thing about a week after birth.. see the GP straight away and if it is mastitis they will give you antibiotics. Feed baby more frequently if you are bfing.

Hope you get seen to , this is the sign of an infection so please do go to the hospital asap

I had this. Was investigated for sepsis but it was "milk fever". Lasted 4-5 days

I had this and it was mastitis. Call the GP ASAP, they should see you urgently.

Call your after birth team straight away. Could be mastitis or an infection elsewhere. Get seen ASAP x

Mastitis I'd say x
