Symptoms after weaning?

Jayers10

After EBF for about 10 weeks I slowly weaned my daughter onto formula over the past few weeks. As of a few days ago I am no longer producing milk. And all of a sudden - all my early pregnancy symptoms are back! I know I'm not pregnant, but I feel nauseated, mild headaches etc. in the exact way I did early on in pregnancy. I'm guessing it's a hormonal change from weaning? Has anyone heard of or experienced this? Hoping it doesn't last too long.

I haven't but am interested to know too for once I do wean- my goal is 6 months but i know that's right around the corner. :-/

I don't recall any symptoms like that when I weaned DS1, but it really could be the changes in hormones. Could it be that your period is coming back?

Your period is probably coming back. Early pregnancy symptoms and PMS are almost indistinguishable.

I thought there was a thread like this! My symptoms have been anxiety and pretty much depression... It sucks.
