    I read your post and was meant to reply the other day - sorry.

    I was going to say that the blood tests may reveal an underactive thyroid. Pregnancy is known to cause it. I'd def ask your GP to test for it.

    Hope you start to feel better soon x

    Hope you're feeling better Mez. Claire is right. My bloods were tested recently and my thyroid levels are a bit low. Usually have a clean bill of health. I've got to back for another blood test at the end of the year. Take care, Jo x

    Thanks everyone for your replies. Had my blood taken so i'll wait and see. I think i'm finding my job too tough now :cry: i'm very sad about this but I think i'm exhausting myself its so busy and being a mum is the hardest job but the best one i ever had and i need to be well for Erin. I cannot afford not to work and don't think i could ever give up nursing but i'm gonna try perhaps moving away from a busy hopital environment like i said b4 i'm sad because i love it but i'm so tired, its mentally and physically draining.

    Any way keep you posted xx

    Take echina & multi vitamins. I know it's really hard when you've a baby to remember to do these things for yourself but my Mum bought them for me & I now take them religiously.
    After Ellie was born I wasn't very well but my health seems to have improved now thankfully.
    A good haircut & some nice make up will cheer you up too!
    Take care of yourself or you won't be able to take care of Erin- In the run up to my court case with Ellie's dad I didn't eat properly for about a week, I lost nearly a stone & could barely lift Ellie who at just over 15lb is not heavy so you know yourself as a nurse you need to take care xxx
