Don't stop breastfeeding.
It can be due to Iron deficiency.
You have to take Iron tablets till 6 months after delivery.
As you have mentioned that you have gone through a cesarean section. Let me tell you that in Cesarean section approximately 1 litre of blood loss occur through our body and that account for 1/5th of the total blood. So to replenish the Hemoglobin and iron store you have to take Iron supplements.
