Hello Kellaujoh and welcome to NeuroTalk.

Congratulations on the birth of your daughter!

It is very difficult and impossible for anyone to know what is causing your symptoms. Proper testing is needed. Many things can be ruled in/out with blood work. If you have a MRI ask for both the brain and cervical spine.

Whenever I read about a woman having neurological symptoms after giving birth my thoughts go to Multiple Sclerosis (MS). It's not uncommon for a woman to experience their first symptoms and/or relapse with this disease after giving birth. Relapses of Multiple Sclerosis is very common within the first 6 months postpartum.

The symptoms you are experiencing, if you have MS, is common

I have had numbness, tingling, vibrations/buzzing from the waist down and yes, that included the girlie parts. This can also cause you to not feel when or if you are urinating.

i do have an appointment with a neurologist but it isn't until next week and things are getting worse fast!!
I know that seems like a long time away considering what you are experiencing but hang in there it's not that far off

Anxiety and stress can cause headaches and some neurological symptoms. Please try and remain calm. I know, easier said than done
