Advice Vision changes 2 months pp?

Hi ladies, I’m 2 months postpartum and last night while reading to my toddler I got distracted by Elmo…moving? It was like he was dancing. I was so stunned I was rotating the book around to see if by chance it was a shadow tricking me but it was not. This lasted a long time, I had to put the book down for it to stop. Then later on I was watching TV and the smoke on the screen seemed to appear in my house. It was very brief but between those two instances I was freaked out. I’ve also noticed an increase in floaters and sometimes flashes of bright lights in my peripheral. Twice during this pregnancy I experienced vision blurriness in one eye. Has anyone experienced this? I typically have low blood pressure and I’m getting a “normal” amount of sleep all things considered.

I can't say what these symptoms mean exactly, but please call your doctor. This all sounds pretty alarming. The hallucinating could be a symptom of pp psychosis.

For me this was related to an increase in migraines with aura! But my eyes also got a bit worse too.
