Is it just me?

Hi there, mummies. Ever since giving birth, my used-to-be strong immune system has really gone down the drain. Before I got pregnant, I was someone who rarely got sick. I could go on for one whole year (or the most 3 years) without getting sick. But ever since I gave birth in February this year, I've gotten sick for about 5 to 6 times. It's always high fever, flu, cough, sore throat, headache and just feeling really really lethargic. It is just tough because when I get sick, I try sucking it up and just go to work but eventually after a few days, I can't stand it anymore and end up having to get sick leave. After having one or two days of rest, I would usually feel well again. Is it just me or are there any mummies in the same boat as me? If there are mummies who experienced the same thing as me, what did or do you do to prevent yourself from getting sick often? PS: And I'm only 29 y/o 🥹 #advicepls #firsttimemom

Hi.. Did u have enough sleep? Did u have enough rest? I think its just normal thing after giving birth. We will having lack of sleep, restless, lambat makan. Somehow, our weather right now pun x menentu kan. Skjap hujan skjap panas. That's y badan kita pun kerap sakit. Maybe u boleh ambik fruits with high Vit c, add more veggie to ur plate n drink more water. I also feel the same after giving birth at the year 2021. I pun kerap sakit. Flu cough quite frequently. No choice just have to bare with it n take meds.

perhaps I should really get started on the supplements too. thanks for the advice, mummy 😊

Maybe its d stress that comes with the baby. But i suggest to check with ur doctor, getting sick 5x in a month is not normal, even for a new mom

maybe need to take supliments
