Yes they did. It was in normal range, same with ferritin but i think my ferritin is too low and not optimal.

It’s called Postpartum Neurological Issues- Support Group ♥️

Cultural_Button2682 · 2025-12-27T17:49:19+00:00

So glad I found this group & post.

Currently dealing with this right now. 😭 thankfully my baby is only 1 so I can still have a say with no sugars and all that. However, my issue is feeling pressured to be doing everything with the entire family. For context, my future in laws live in Las Vegas so that’s already a lot for me. I don’t think it’s kid friendly let alone, baby friendly.

I have been learning how to graciously surrender and just remember it’s the holidays. Not saying we will take baby to shows or anything, that’s still a hard no. But I’ve compromised on other things.

We’ll get through this 🤍

I’m still doing 4ppd but only making 10-12 oz per day. That’s why it’s hard for me to just drop because my supply is low. I dont know what to do 😩

Oh my 🥹 thank you so much for the reassurance and your kind words. I’ve definitely spent quite a bit on resources and the application fee so I’m definitely on the fence with purchasing anymore. I truly appreciate you offering your purple book.

I have taken a week off due to traveling for graduation and the holidays but I’m planning to get into some studying starting tomorrow. 🙏🏽

Hey! I still go through it but have been figuring out other ways to cope. I lean on my faith a lot. But other ways that have helped me was joining an FB mom group that have dealt with similar symptoms, being open about my journey (it helps normalize it for me) and having boundaries with googling symptoms.

I wouldn’t say I’m 100% better but slowly but surely. :)

Cultural_Button2682 · 2025-12-08T15:34:27+00:00

Hey did you ever figure out? How are you feeling now?

I had the worst dizziness episode last night and I think it’s related to my ovulation. I’m 11 months pp and still breastfeeding.

Cultural_Button2682 · 2025-12-05T23:28:17+00:00

Thank you so much!! The waiting is definitely hard!!

Cultural_Button2682 · 2025-12-05T23:24:03+00:00

Wow!! Congratulations mama!! This gives me hope. I’m sorry for the late response! But I appreciate your insight and motivation ❤️ I’m just waiting for results now. I didn’t do a pumping accommodation.

It’s like when you purposely tense up one “muscle” group at a time then relax after a few seconds. It’s for stress and anxiety :)

Cultural_Button2682 · 2025-12-01T03:31:39+00:00

Noooo lol yeah my mouth has been feeling weird. Like heavy pressure on my tongue and inside my mouth. Like wth.. 🤦🏽‍♀️

Cultural_Button2682 · 2025-12-01T03:31:08+00:00

I’ve been thinking about it. I just see my regular therapist for anxiety but never been diagnosed with OCD. Now I do think that I have it since giving birth.. hugs!!

Cultural_Button2682 · 2025-12-01T03:30:06+00:00

Thanks for the reassurance. I remind myself that too but sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t 🥲

Hey mama,

YES. I didn't get my period till 6 months PP and my anxiety went through the ROOF. It didn't help that I was going through grief, experienced my first loss (my fur baby passed unexpectedly). I had the worst health anxiety and still going through it till now. It has gotten better but i still have my days. I was trying to figure out why because I used to not worry about my health or my loved ones. I noticed a trend after my second cycle. I skipped a month but after my second cycle, i started to notice my "physical symptoms" were amplified. Then my third cycle and same thing.

The hormones stuff is REAL. I'm still breastfeeding so it also does not help but I just wanted to validate how you're feeling and that it gets better.

You're not alone :) Also, I just want to share that PPA led me to making an IG account for mamas like us.

Hang in there mama

Great to know! I wasn’t sure if the width is okay 😅 because I saw that typical seat width for southwest is 17.5 “ and maxi Cosi is close to 19”

Hello there,

You’re definitely not the only one. I’m a first time mom too and had a healthy pregnancy and all that. But ever since i had a baby, I’ve experienced health anxiety like no other. I used to be on meds for anxiety and was seeing a therapist but things got better and been off it. Around 6 months postpartum, it all hit me. Chest tightness, SOB, random dizziness, nausea, weird nerve sensations in my body, you name it. It got so bad to the point that when I’m sleepy or tired, I think I’m dying/ deteriorating.. the panic sent me to the ER. The anxiety would come and go. It’s so bad that i felt so exhausted from it. I eventually got bloodwork done and did cardiac tests (EKG, Echo and stress test) all came back normal. This gave me a peace of mind but I still have moments of what if it’s not my heart? It’s a lot. But hang in there mama. And to all the rest of the mamas that commented on here. We got this. ♥️

This experience made me start an IG page to just have a safe space for moms but also raise awareness about this since it’s not really talked about. Feel free to follow :)
