:D I mean, not as in 'I look the business' (unless trackies and a t-shirt with unwashed hair counts as hot).

Since I had DS I seem to be completely unable to regulate my body temperature. I get horribly hot and sweaty when everyone else is just fine, and it's really annoying me now. Is it just hormones still?

My DD is now almost 10 weeks old and I still feel hot all the time. I thought it was just me but I'm glad to see I'm not alone!

Hmmm. Thanks - I'll look into that. I'm a bit sick of DH turning the a/c off in the night so I wake up drenched!

It's just a thought; post-partum thyroiditis is not uncommon. If you're at all concerned, it's a really straightforward blood test to get your levels checked. <em>edited by BFC on 19/01/2011</em>

Haven't had anything checked apart from kidney and liver function (I had pre-eclampsia) a couple of weeks after he was born. Should I?

Have you had your thyroid levels checked?

I'm the opposite since having DD, feeling the cold very easily. However I do change temps quicker than I used to.

He's now almost 8 months. I was really bad just after I had him and I thought it had improved, but I keep finding myself overheating again :\:.

I used to put the AC soooo low when I was pregnant that my poor DH used to wear a woolen jumper during summer Nothing has changed now with DS almost 8 months :) I still need AC I was blaming it on my extra 8 kgs :( I don't know if it helps but you're not the only one
