Breastfeeding mother
I am a mother of 4.5 months baby and has normal delivery. And I am breastfeeding mother.
Since two weeks I feel short of breath and restless Ness mainly in night.
Also sometimes I feel tooth pain or pelvic join pain or headache.
So last time I went to gynic and that time my BP was low. And doc has prescribed me multivitamin tablets.
I want to know why I feel short of breath or is it common for breastfeeding mothers

It's not common for breastfeeding mothers
