Hi there

I posted the other day about nutrition and being 40 weeks pregnant.  Thank
you for replying to me everyone, I lost the mails, so I could not reply to
you.

Anyway, on the 26th April, despite putting on only 4 or 5 kg, I gave birth
to a healthy 8lb9oz baby boy.  I am feeling really well but have a few
concerns which I hope someone can help me with.

I am now weighing less that when I became pregnant (104lbs), have low blood
pressure 80/45 and my fingers and face look yellow.  I also have an achy
feeling in my kidney area.  I am breastfeeding my baby and seem to have lots
of milk.  We are worried that I have a protein overload, is this possible.
Because I can not eat a lot of things like nuts and dried fruit (I am
celiac), I eat a lot of red meat, fruit, veg, poultry and fish.  In fact,
this is nearly all I eat.  I am trying to drink lots of water and now I am
adding sweet potatoe to my diet to add some carbohydrates.  Is this my
problem, lack of carbohydrates?  I hope someone can give me some advice.  I
like the Paleo way of eating and now my husband has started to eat like this
so I don't want to really go back onto all the carbos again. Should I take a
supplement, if so, what?

Thanks for any advice.
