 Posted: 08/26/06 - 19:50 Post subject: loosing weight rapidly after baby was born |
  |
|
i have a question, i hope some of you could help me out.
during my pregnancy i only gained 9 pounds total. but before i was pregnant i weight 120, after i had him, my weight was 111. so obviously he gained more, but my body lost weight. (a total of 18 pounds). well the thing is, i am doing everything i can, and i'm still loosing weight! i went to my WIC apt. last week and i weighed 98 lbs. my baby is 6 months old, so i've lost 13 more pounds in 6 months. i am basically skin and bones. i was breast feeding, so i figured that is why, but my baby was having complications so they told me to stop breast feeding until they found out what the problem was with him (they weren't sure if i was the problem, so they are trying to rule me out) so i am pumping just to keep up my supply, but now that has dwindled off. i am no longer expressing milk, even though i was pumping all the time. i am thursty ALL the time, no amount of water can fulful my thurst. sometimes i am complelelty starved and when i go to eat, it feels like i will throw up if i eat anymore, so i eat as slow as i possibly can so i can still get nutrients. anyone have any ideas? |

DO YOU NOT have a regular doctor?
THE excessive thirst and weight loss sounds like signs OF DIABETES, or even thyroid problems..
YOU NEED to see a regular doctor. |
