Anyone else getting night sweats?

I have been getting night sweats since Navy was born. I remember getting them with Aspen but I do not remember it lasting this long! I had Navy 15 days ago and I still wake up for midnight feedings drenched in sweat. It is so gross because there is an actual wet spot on my sheets and pillow when I wake up! I hate that feeling! How long does this last and does anyone know anything to make it go away quickly or be less? I feel like a sweaty pig. I cant imagine its still me loosing my water weight either since Im only like 5 lbs from my pre-pregnancy weight now. Ugh, Im going crazy!

Yeah its all hormones. I asked my doctor and she said it can last up to a month but that the more water you drink the quicker it goes away.

I though I was alone on this. I have been waking up the same way. I have the air conditioner on and I still sweat, but I am so cold. I have no idea what's going on. It must just be our hormones going crazy trying to get back to normal.

I had them with Richie and Spencer both but I definitely am not having that problem this time around. When I was pregnant I slept with a free standing fan on high, my double ceiling fan on medium and the upstairs temps set to 74 degrees constantly. I still sleep that way now but I definitely have to sleep with the covers on me. I think it is something that we just have to suffer through =( All of the things that I tried with the boys definitely didn't do anything to help out at all except for the cold showers.
