Help!

My baby is now 10 weeks old.  for the last week and a half or two i have been very moody, peeing very often, lightheaded, nauseous, and completely exhausted even though my baby has been sleeping through the night now.  I have also had bad acne which has never been a problem except when i was pregnant.  I took a pregnancy test but it was negative, and i just wonder if these were normal postpartum symptoms or if they are not......

Have you gotten a period yet?  Could be the onset of that. If you don't want to get pregnant 10 weeks out, get on birth control.

More power to you. I can't imagine having 2 babies under a year old.

It could be your hormones getting back into check and the decrease could be causing some of those side effects.

I experienced this around 8 weeks and I still get lightheaded sometimes when I stand up too quickly.

I would take a look at your diet and take another pregnancy test in a couple of days and then make an appointment with you doc if the test is negative and symptoms don't improve.
