Flu like symptoms

Gals, I had my baby via c section 15 days ago and for the past probably 10 days every single day at some point in the late afternoon/evening, I have felt absolutely terrible. You know when you’ve had a sick bug and after it you feel all achy and cold and groggy and dizzy? It’s that exact feeling and I am strugglliinnggg. I have mentioned it to the gp in passing, health visitor, midwife! No one seems concerned! Should I be concerned? Has anyone else experienced this? I’m worried I have an infection or something but it’s not all day I feel like this it’s just at a certain time of day? Very odd

Maybe you have something low in your blood like iron? Perhaps ask your gp for a blood test?

Like already said you could be low in iron. I was discharged from hospital with a two week course of iron tablets because of my blood loss.. it may also be a reaction to what ever you have done during the day. By the time it happening your body just may be exhausted (remember it’s major surgery you have just gone through.. I always forgot this😅) If your not running a temp then I would think it’s just your body saying relax abit more xx

@Tessa you’re probably right Tessa, I get far too cocky with things! Having a toddler and a new born is exhausting so it probably is that but I’ll ring the gp tomorrow and ask for bloods to be done! Xx
