Hi everyone
I am sure that I have read somewhere about some women getting cardiac
arrhythmias (palpitations) during breastfeeds. Maybe this would
explain the dizziness that some women experience - if the heart
doesn't pump effectively it will affect circulation and blood flow to
the brain, thus the dizziness and faint feeling.
Does anyone else know about this, or is it something I imagined???
