A while back (maybe a couple of years ago) we had a long thread in which a number of people (including me) posted about what my husband calls "bf tristesse" -- a feeling of sorrow that seems to be oxytocin related and that goes away by itself. Most of us experienced it much more acutely in the early weeks, when the hormonal waves are surging so strongly anyway and the sleep deprivation is making all emotional reactions so much stronger; but it was clearly bf related, for me and some other posters. Seems to be a variation of normal, and not to last all that long.ESU *********************************************** The LACTNET mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software together with L-Soft's LSMTP(TM) mailer for lightning fast mail delivery.
