EBF and lightheadedness

Anyone have this? It doesn't feel like vertigo, or dizziness. I seem to get it during the same time everyday so I wonder if its caused by dehydration or low blood sugar. I don't remember this from my daughter.

  • I'm not experiencing it, but my first guess is that maybe you aren't drinking enough water. My LC told me to drink twice as much as I was drinking when pregnant (which was already a lot more than I was used to).

    Yesterday I had some weird stomach

  • I've experienced this a couple times and I agree it's because I'm dehydrated.  I need to remember to eat and drink.  It's hard when you have a baby that loves to be held all the time!

  • That's what I figured. It always happens mid morning, after the rush of getting everyone up and moving. Once I realize it I chug water and have a snack. It goes away after a while.
