CM postpartum?
Hi all! It’s been a long time since I’ve been on here!
Baby girl is 4 months old today, time flies!
About two months ago my allergist gave me two prescriptions (totaling 3 pills) and warned me it could maybe decrease my supply a little. I took two of the three pills- not even a full dose she recommended and my supply tanked severely. We basically only nurse once or twice a day, otherwise it’s formula. Kinda sad about that but not terribly.
ANYWAYS, on 10/25, one week ago I started having some mild cramps and thought maybe my period might start to show up since were basically formula feeding most of the time but no period showed. Instead I got LOTS of egg white CM, like I would have been SO excited if I were TTC again. I figured “okay maybe I’m ovulating”, we’ll yesterday and today I also had more EWCM and some cramping too. EWCM wasn’t as much as last week but the cramping today was more than last week. We are not on birth control besides condoms and we’re great at using them, maybe one time in the past we started off without one but put it on shortly after. I took a test about a week ago just to check because we’re not on the pill and it was clearly negative. We are not trying for a baby (this was my 2nd CS and I have a wedding to go to next summer if like to not be pregnant for).
I’m also INSANELY bloated but my diet has been terrible lately.
Is this just my body working it’s way back to normalcy after not breasting as much? Tried to get a test today but the store was out abs I had both my kiddos with me and didn’t want to stop anywhere else.
