Babies: 0 - 3 Months

Anybody else super sweaty at night postpartum?

I get soo sweaty at night its totally disgusting! Just wondering how long this lasted for anyone else. I feel like i need to wash my sheets everyday and Im annoyed because I dont want to blowdry my hair straight if its just gonna get all nasty at night (I blow dry every other day). UGH! I know its just crazy hormones probably but what the heck.........any advice?and again how long did it last? TIA

  • I'm still hot all the time, but I think the night sweats stopped around two or three weeks.  You're just about there.  Everyone is different, but that was how it was for me.

  • Yes!!! It has gotten better over the last few weeks, but was terrible for at least a month. I straighten my hair, too, and try to only do it every other day. It looked awful by the time I got up after those sweaty nights.
  • I still am at least 3-4 times a week.  MW said it is normal and just hormones working themselves out.  She did mention that some women also continue this (yuck!) if they breastfeed.

    I sleep on a towel and just put my hair up.  Grosses me out but its not like there is anything I can do about it!

  • I was the same at 2 weeks--turned out I had mastitis and had a fever!!  It went away after a few days.
  • ugghhh i have this and hate this!

  • Mine got better around 3 or 4 weeks pp.
  • It settled for me at 3 weeks, however it starts and stops off and on even now especially when bf.
  • YES! Especially the cleavage sweat - I thought I must be leaking I get so damp but nope, it's sweat. I too blowdry/flat iron my hair which is like a 1.5hr committment (inc wash/cond I have SO much hair). I only dry it once a week (lasts 3-4 days) and it super annoys me when it gets ruined from the sweat.

    Yep!! and when I wake up to bf I get cold from all the air hitting my chest.

    Before I hardly ever sweat and now it is like i ran a marathon every night.

     I'm almost at 3 months and still get them too :( I do breastfeed so that may be it. It sucks though.

  • I have this too.  It's pretty gross, and I'm not usually hot at night, just sweaty.
