depression

stomach virus

Yup if there is something wrong with you the doctors will let you know.
It sounds normal after having a baby. I went through that.
So did my sister.
Feel better, chin up! =)

go to a doctor

MONO?????

depression
( depression hurts commercial)

no it will continue for a few more weeks, maybe a month or two and you will start feeling better again, just eat more than usually and get enough vitamins and minerals in your body. Also drink lots of fluids

mono or appendicitis.

losing hair after birth is normal because when we get prego our hair gets super thick..mine did..i lost hair for a really long time. you might just be tired live overly..hows your diet eating right post baby is really important and if your nursing it can sometimes make you feel this way..you probably just need a day or two of deep rest. good luck love. congrats on the baby.

vitamin deficiency, post partum depression, perhaps you are host to some sort of nasty parasite... possibly radiation poisoning.. does anyone in your family work in a scrap yard? does your husband have a large insurance policy on your life?

dont let this go... the squeaky wheel gets the noise.. make as much noise as you can until somebody tells you definitively what is wrong with you, or until they point you in the direction of what is wrong with you

Post traumatic
or
Anorexia
you might have circulation prob

motherhood is a wonderful time, but it is also a very tiresome time, are you getting enough sleep, enough help with your baby. I felt alot like you do, because I did not sleep and my husband had to travel for business, so i pretty much was on my own. Are you eating well to compensate if you breast feed. take a good daily vitamin, go for a walk and have some alone time. have your husband, or a family member come and sit with your baby and give you the much deserved rest and peace you need. Good Luck. if this continues you need to get a second opinion though.

You can lose some of your hair up to six months after you give birth, so that may be explainable, but you should still keep talking to your doctor about all of your symptoms. It's early yet since you had your child, but I'm still going to recommend that you get tested for a dysfunctional thyroid.

It has been 12 months since I had my child, but the last couple of months my hair started coming out enough to alarm me (a brush full every day), I was EXTREMELY tired, my joints ache all the time, pale (for me) and very dry skin, and other symptoms.

My doctor kept making light of my symptoms, but my mother has hypothyroidism and so I specifically insisted on that test. Lo and behold, I also have an underactive thyroid. I was then tested for something called Hashimoto's Disease, an auto-immune disease that can cause hypothyroidism, and I apparently have that as well. I'm on the lowest dose of Levothyroxin (25 mg), and that dosage may go up as I need it. I will likely need it for life because the thyroid gland is actually very important.

It doesn't sound to me like you were tested for this. Insist on the test to at least rule it out because the thyroid gland affects your joints, memory, mood, weight, energy, metabolism and other areas.

Here are some sites to look over. Good luck and health to you!

It's possible that you may be experiencing 'Post partum depression' of which is fairly common after childbirth.
If you have seen a Dr & had negative tests/xrays, I do believe that what you are feeling is not life threatening.
I've had friends (including myself) that complained about the same symptoms that you have after childbirth & eventually all have subsided.
Our bodies are subject to lots of changes during pregnancy
which can cause trauma, but be encouraged that you will be soon back to normal.
You should look into a "New Moms group ' in your area, which may be helpful.
Being a new Mom can be trying, a great life changing experience !!!
Hang in there!
