Hello Janie,

It is possible that you are iron or vitamin B12 deficient - both of these deficiencies can cause dizziness and tiredness. I think is is worth getting your blood tests done, just so you can either rule out deficiencies, or identify and treat them. Remember that BF is a huge (and wonderful) job for your body, and does take up lots of energy. Are you taking any multi-vitamins at the moment? It is really beneficial to continue taking a multi throughout BF and beyond to restore nutrient levels following birth. Make sure you're eating loads of good food and lots of protein and enjoy the big sleeps xxx
