I am so glad to see this post because I am experiencing the same thing. I nursed my son for almost 2 years and stopped one month ago. From the time I started weaning until now I have had abdominal pain and all the symptoms you described above - feeling full more easily, anxiety, plus groin pain. I went to the doctor about a month ago and they did an ultrasound and didn't find anything abnormal. I also went to my family doctor and she did an X-ray to check for constipation. She noticed I had some swollen lymph nodes, but didn't seem overly concerned about them. I called to make another appointment with my OB/GYN last week because my period was very heavy and lasted for nine days last month and now I'm cramping with some bloody discharge. I've found several sites and journal articles where other people listed some of these same symptoms after weaning. I'm just concerned because when you read other things online it talks about ovarian or cervical cancer. I thought once I weaned everything would go back to normal, but it seems my body/hormones are all messed up right now.
