[quote=Anonymous]It is absolutely normal. I found that my energy returned only after 6 weeks. My babies were also slow eaters and it took them around 1 hour per feed. And before I could rest, they were ready to nurse again. I was exhausted for the first 40-50 days after childbirth. Once I was completely healed, I was able to nurse without being wiped out. One thing that my caregivers made sure was that I was eating and drinking each time I was nursing. My MIL made some concoction of medicinal spices, nuts, seeds, dates, fruits, ghee and she ground it all up and that was mixed in warm milk and given to me. I was given a lot of food to help my milk supply, to heal my organs, to keep me regular and to protect me from falling ill. Also, eat your food. Make sure you are eating stews with greens and protein, lots of fruits, veggies, easy to digest grains, lots of bone broth based soups. [/quote]
