Yeah, mood swings here too. Except I feel a bit more down than up which worries me a bit. I am so glad he's here and I'm very protective of him, but then I sit down and I think how much my life has now changed and I really miss my old life sometimes, ie taking off to the shops whenever I feel like it, just getting in my car and going wherever, sleeping through the whole night. I know it sounds selfish, but I'm finding this whole 'life adjustment' a bit hard. I feel panicky just thinking about taking him out of the house So I hope it's just a rough period one goes through sometimes in the early days and doesn't lead into something worse.....I have also been feeling so hot and sweaty in the last few days. I wake up for his feed in the middle of the night absolutely drenched in sweat, my hair is stuck to my neck like I've just stepped out of the shower, my nightie is soaked right through, and during the day I just feel so bloo*y hot! I've also been off my food for 3 days now, I've actually had some runny poo to begin with and then just been off my food. So yesterday afternoon I gave him a feed at 5.30 with my expressed milk (I had visitors again so didn't b/f) and I've noticed he was rather unsettled after that and when I changed his nappy a couple of hours later, he had a really light runny poo. So I'm not sure if I have a bug and passed it onto him via breast milk. I'm paranoid now so I have given him formula at 5.30 this morning (I would normally put him onto the breast). Does anyone know if this chopping and changing between breast milk and formula can upset bub's tummy??
