XP- Headaches while nursing?

I posted this on the BFing board, but if anyone here has insight, please share!
?
So I'm still taking my prenatal vitamin religiously, I drink water all day, and I eat 5-6 mini-meals to keep my energy up- fresh fruit, almonds, cottage cheese, etc. But by the end of my LO's nursing sessions, I get slammed with a terrible headache... it takes a while after the nursing session is over for it to go away. I obviously don't want to take meds, but the headache kills. I want to try to keep up with my post-feeding pumping, but my head hurts so badly that I just want to lie down afterwards. Anyone else??

  • It's most likely hormone related I had them all the time in the beginning. After my supply regulated it got much better.

  • I used to get headaches every time I fed LO as well. they went away after the first 6 weeks, but they were pretty unbearable for awhile!
