Low Body Temperature After Delivering A Baby With C-section
Hi, My niece just has a c-section and delivered a beautiful baby boy. She s diabetic. She s sweating from her waist up and has nausea and her body temperature is very low. Can you help answer what can cause this after having a baby?

The probably reasons I could think of:-
1) Shock due to blood loss post surgery
2) Post surgery stress
3) Hypoglycemia due to Insulin. After delivery, Insulin resistance suddenly drops and many develop hypoglycemia.
Hope she is fine by now. Please keep us updated.
