Hello all,

I have been in contact with a mother who has gone through a gradual weaning
process: child is 3 yrs old and was nursing once a day.  Now that she has
stopped, she is experiencing bouts of nausea and dizziness. She says that
she is not pregnant and that her gynecologist says it is a side effect of
having nursed so long: her hormones are "having a hard time
readjusting".  She is not experiencing engorgement.  I can find no mention
of it in Lawrence or Riordan and Auerbach, neither was I unable to turn up
anything through PubMed.

Does anyone have any experience with this phenomenon?

Thanks,

Elise Chapin
