did anyone have any body changes when weaning breast to bottle??

[stephj25]

Hello ladies!

My LO has now moved onto having 2 bottles a day after having 1 bottle a day for 3 weeks. This week I've been getting all sorts of body changes:-

- vivid dreams
- constipation
- windy/gas
- feeling hungry & sick
- night sweats

Did anyone else have the same thing or am I just coming down with something??

Thanks

It's quite possible that it's hormonal changes related to you stopping BFing. It can be really tough on the body; can trigger another bout of baby blues and a whole host of other symptoms.

It won't last forever. Gradually reducing is the more natural way to wean, so you're already being as gentle on yourself as you can be. You've really just got to ride it out for a little longer.
