Should I just wait till my appointment on Thursday or go in now?

BentleysMommy

Well I have my 6 week pp appointment on Thursday. My cousin told me she thinks something is wrong since I only bled for a week and a half after I had Bentley, especially because he's my first baby. Also, I'm losing a lot of weight. You would think that'd be good but I lost all my weight after one week, but I'm still losing weight because after I had Bentley, my appetite completely vanished. There maybe 1 time out of the day that I'm hungry enough to eat a regular sized meal but other than that, I'm not hungry and I have to force myself to eat if I can. I do drink constantly though because I stay thirsty. Well now the past few days I've been having bad headaches, some nausea, stomach cramping, back ache and some back spasms, and dizzy spells, if I stand up too fast of if I bend down and stand up, I feel like I'm going to pass of and I get really dizzy. Idk if I should just wait till Thursday or what? Help? @HomeBirthAdvocate if your not busy having your baby lol, any idea of what I should do?

I think u need to have it checked out hun. I think bleeding for that long is normal for some wemon but with the other stuff going on too you need to at least call ur doc.

BentleysMommy

I'm gonnna call and see what they say I guess.

BentleysMommy

They acted like it wasn't a big deal. She just told me to eat more. So I guess I'll just shove food down my throat since I'm never hungry.

I know my mom only bleed for a week with all four of her children but the other stuff may be a little worrisome. I guess just try to shove it down like you said.

I know i didn eat hardly anything after i had my first and lost 40 pounds within 2 weeks, the thing i would be worried about is the aches and cramping, it sounds like u could have a uti or some kind of infection possibly. I would definately call in the morning if it doesn't stop. Does it hurt or burn when you pee?

BentleysMommy

@Lindsey2Bou well she said the cramping could be my period about to star but I thought with breast feeding, it takes a while for my period to come back. And it doesn't burn when I pee but it itches reallllly bad down there.
