Sweating and shaking

excitedbride11

hey Mamas! So I'm almost 5 weeks post delivery and was feeling good until last week. I'm sweating so much at night which I know is normal, but I'm also sweating lots through the day and physically shaking at the same time. I'm eating and trying to take care of myself with two kids, easier said than done! My c section incision is almost fully healed; I got a slight infection and it leaked for a month, I go tomm to have it checked again. Has anyone else experienced this? I'm guessing hormones but I feel pretty crummy. I'm also bleeding again which I thought went away, so confusing!

I'm 2.5 weeks PP and last night I woke up drenched in sweat! It's so gross! I hope it doesn't last long :-/

Given you had a c-section and an infection, I'd call your doctor or labor and delivery. It could be harmless, but it's not worth the delivery.

Hormones!!!! It's totally normal. They are all over the place post partum. As long as you don't have a fever, I wouldn't worry.

This! I had this all through labor and active labor plus several hours post partum. My nurses called it the labor shakes. I would, however, call your doctor and L&D just to be on the safe side. Good luck!

I also had the shakes during transistion and the nurse said it was hormones. I don't know about after delivery, I would probably call L&D. As for the sweating, I had that after my first baby, but not the second or third...yet.
