I just had a baby at 34 weeks. whenever it's time to burp him, my arms get really weak and makes me constantly stop. what is going on?

Valsalva: your blood pressure is dropping with pressure around your larynx builds up, as when you burp. Called valsalva maneuver induced hypotension. May just be because your bp is low to begin with. Might want to check your iron.
