Chest pains & uterine pain (Post Partum)

Does anyone else get really bad chest pains or uterine pains when their baby is screaming/crying/ or fussing?


I am 7 weeks post partum.


I have been having chest pains for a while now and they stay there for a bit when my son decides to throw a fit or cry and I just feel overwhelmed.  I also get cramps in my uterus when he has a fit too... I'm not bleeding anymore and I already got my period and that's done with... so I'm just trying to understand why these things happen...

 by chest pain do you mean like your breasts hurt or like your heart hurts? lol does that make sense? I know everytime Ryan cries i start leaking haha its like an instant reaction everytime and when he nurses i used to get the pains in my uterus but that seems to have stopped now.  have you had your post partum check up yet? if not i'd say ask your Dr. about it when you go. :)

i would think your body is already some what healed up from the birth of your little one.  you may want to give your doc a call esp with all the pains.  could it be stress that these pains are happening from?

By chest pains I mean like my chest... not my breasts.  I'm thinking I'm having a lot of stress.  I just hope that I don't have a heart attack.  It just seems really odd to me to be having chest pain and uterine pain from my kid crying...  I had my pp check up weeks ago and won't go back to the doctor until May for my annual.  I had a c-section though, maybe that's why the uterine pain?
