Postpartum sweats and BO!

4 weeks postpartum and wondering when my pH is going to return to normal! This postpartum body odor is getting old and the sweating is totally new to me! I typically run cold. 😂🥲

So your body odor increases when you breastfeed to help newborn find their food. It is different for everyone and lasts a bit longer if you are EBF, but typically, it will go away within a couple of months of birth.

That’s super interesting! Good to know.

I had similar- if you’re breastfeeding your Bo is naturally increased but Peppermint tea, more alkaline foods, less acidic foods, lots of water, wash pits, put witch hazel on cottonpad and dab a couple times a day to neutralize bacteria , Helped me pp 5 months
