Super sweaty at night

ShadyKull

Whenever I wake up at night to feed Graham, I find that I am DRENCHED in sweat. I don't feel hot, just cold, clammy and uncomfortable. It makes night wake-ups extra unpleasant.

 Anyone else have this issue? I was waking up sweaty in the last month or so of pregnancy also, but not this badly and I figured it would stop after birth.

Guess being postpartum is kinda like going through menopause with the sweating and mood swings, eh?

I am 3 and a half weeks pp and just stopped with the night sweats. It's your hormones releasing, or so I've been told, and it won't last forever!

I had this too...it sucks! Hormones..blah! I am almost 3 weeks pp and it is getting better.

I had this 2 nights ago. I don't remember it happening the first time around, but maybe I'd just forgotten!

I've been experiencing this too. It's so annoying. Especially since I don't have the time or energy to be washing my sweaty sheets and nasty hair right now.

Yes!  I had Emma three weeks ago and this still happens.  I change my pjs three times a night.

Oh lovely hormones! I think my hormonal surges have been worse postpartum then they were while I was pregnant. Someone suggested putting a towel on your pillow at night to help absorb the extra moisture.

Here! I'm soooo hot and sweaty when I get up to nurse I'm counting down the min until the LO is finished! It's awful.

Yep. I keep a towel by my bed. It's so gross.

Omg I'm glad I'm not the only one! I've been waking up sweaty, but then I am cold. I also wake up in a freakish start when I hear Naomi fuss, and I think I feel asleep on her....I start feeling around on my chest. Post partum is so weird...
