Postpartum Nausea

Anna

My daughter was delivered on October 16th, 2015 at 6:12am. I had no nausea at all during her pregnancy but the evening of the 26th I had heartburn that made me feel nauseous which is what I thought it was, my night nurse gave me 2 tums and it helped but the next day about 1230 I had it again but this time no heartburn and I felt dizzy and the room was spinning and my vision was jumpy. They gave me tums again and it did help some but not much. We then left that afternoon and when we got home yesterday I almost threw up but just gagged instead. I'm still having really bad nausea. It is worse when I hold my daughter and my stomach is pushed down, and it gets worse as my back pain acts up. I'm calling my Dr tomorrow to schedule my 1 week app but hoping I can get in on Wednesday or Thursday.

For now I'm using pepto because gravol knocks me out (even the non-drowsy kind) and tums are disgusting and ginger ale.
