Finally we went to a family dr today to lose weight after childbirth and anxierty …?

My daughter is almost 6 months … I am a nurse and have always been thin, but now weighs 7 pounds below my pre-pregnancy weight and low weight at first. I was very tired, even though my daughter has slept through the night since she was two months. I woke with a headache and I worry all the time. Dr. said that it might have an overactive thyroid gland or have a generalized anxiety disorder. He says I wean my daughter started taking Lexapro … I do not want to take medication for it … Never operate until I have my daughter … do all these things sound like a normal part being a new mom? All I found so after giving birth? He said that postpartum depression is not that I was not sad at all, or angry. I do not want to wean my daughter yet. I want to keep BF morning and evening at least. Advice, experience? Thanks!

My daughter is 11 months and still breastfeeding. If you miss can not be started again. My hormones are still currently too extravagant. I would like to breastfeed as long as planned, and give your body the opportunity to return to normal (few months). So if you still have to do drugs. I also research and see if there is natural that you can do (if still necessary after wean her) natural is always preferable, if possible. GOOD LUCK!
