Pumping and nausea
I gave birth on July 3, so 11 days ago. My daughter's in NICU so have
been pumping since day 1. Got the usual contractions while pumping, a few days ago got heavier cramping, but all still within what seems like normal range. But beginning yesterday, every time I pump I got nausea. I don't throw up, but feels like early morning sickness - upset stomach, not quite but almost want to throw up. It goes away eventually, just in time for me to start pumping again... anyone else experience this? My midwife comes for my 2-week checkup on Monday so I'll ask her then, just wondered if others have experienced something similar. |

Not with my first daughter, but with my second I had these waves of nausea everytime I let down (whether nursing or pumping). For me it just lasted the length of the nursing/pumping session, but it was pretty yucky. The good news is that it died down significantly by about 4 weeks. By the time I went back to work at 12 weeks, it wasn't happening at all. I don't know what it was, but it's kind of wierd that I had it with my second and not my first. Hope your little one is improving quickly, congratulations on her birth. Mary W. |

Never happened before and never since. |

I had nausea everytime I nursed for quite a long time. it is horrible isn't it. From advice I'd read here I found drinking water before I nursed helped a lot - it's just many times I didn't remember. But when I did it deffo helped. Jeni |
