nausea and stopping breastfeeding?

Maybe hear what La Leche has to say?

Isn't milk fever mastitis? I don't think I have that as my boobs are not at all sore or even tender.


Stupid question but what doctor do I see? GP or gynae?

Mmm, maybe milk fever (melk koors) do you have flu like symtoms? It sounds pretty gradual though (the weaning) so 'I' dont think so. Dont know..

After I stopped breast feeding a few weeks ago I also felt really crappy for some time. I didn't feel nauseous but my whole body was aching (as in severe ligament pain, I could hardly move), especially my hips, knees and lower back. I felt like an 80 year old! Only now does it occur to me that this could have actually been hormone related. It lasted about 2 weeks. Maybe sit it out over the weekend and if it's not better or even worse by Monday see a doc?

Hi,

I've been dropping my 10m ols's breadfeeds - 1 a week - over the last 2 weeks. So 2 Wednesdays ago I dropped the morning feed and last Wednesday the evening feed. He still has a 2pm breast feed.

I haven't had any engoregement problems but have noticed over the last few days that I am feeling really kak. Almost like morning sickness. Except it's more all day nausea that vomifene doesn't put much of a dent into! it occurs to me that maybe the two are related? Is tgis a side affect of stopping breastfeeding? Do I need to see a doc or is it just the hormones working themselves out?

And no i'm not pregnant
