After pregancy Cold Chills

Wife is been having cold chills after the pregancy (gave birth to baby
7 days ago). is this normal? what's causing it? she suddenly gets
very cold, is it because of low/hight blood pressure or excess
bleeding. does that make any sense? did anybody have such issues
after giving birth?

Totally normal. It's hormones resettling, or
something like that. Took me totally by surprise
and scared me, 'cause it was summer and suddenly
I'd get freezing chills, and I had to wear about
3-4 layers of clothes. I wish that the books
about pregnancy mentioned this!!!

I was shaking out of control after I had Chloe, But it was only in the
hospital....
they said it was my hormones coming back down and the epidural wearing
off....

I had to laugh, when DH and my dad made a joke, ( dh said ..=91=91whew,
that is my wife coming back to normal=92=92 kinda like getting the
demons out of me...LOL,,,,because while I was pregnant, I was on one big
PMS mission...LOL...

I think it is normal. I constantly shook after having Eva. I think my
doctor told me it was hormones trying to get back to normal and the fact
that I had an epidural could be the cause also.

I was cold for some time after having DD. For one, my temperature was close
to a full degree celsius higher during pg, secondly, I'd lost the little hot
water bottle I kept out front! Normal, I'd say, as long as she's been
checked and has no fever/infection etc.
