Hi Mamas!
I've been dealing with a bad case of dry eyes and dry mouth for a week or so (well, the dry eyes has been going on for a couple of months). Not sure what's up, as I've never really had this problem before. I'm nursing my 17 mo. dd pretty frequently throughout the day, but I drink lots of water. I recently (about 4 months ago) went off the mini pill in hopes of TTC, and I have yet to have my first PPAF. Not sure if maybe hormonal shifts could be causing this or not. Does anyone have any suggestions or can anyone else relate? I'm hope there isn't any underlying issues. I went to the doctor and she told me that I just had dry eyes and to use drops...I forgot to tell her about the dry mouth (duh, I'm a little forgetful, that's what waking up 4 times a night to nurse will get you!). Oh...and a little TMI, but I also have noticed my vagina is drier than usual, although, I've dealt with that off and on since breastfeeding. Any thoughts? Thanks a lot
