I am still spotting and bleeding at almost 6w PP. I EBF and had a c sec. I guess I just thought by now I woukd finally be done using pads. I see my OB this coming week so I can talk to her. Just curious if this is normal as it appears from other posts on here, many of you stopped by 4 wks or so.
I BF but had vaginal delivery. I bled a couple days past 4 weeks, and then my cycle returned at 6 weeks (a day after starting bc pills...go figure). It was very light, but needed to wear a pad. Maybe your cycle is returning as your bleeding ceases? Your doctor would know for sure, as I do not have information about c-section recovery.
I bled for anywhere from 7-9 weeks post (vag) deliveries w/each of mine. The first 6+ weeks were actual bleeding, then I would spot. It lasted much longer than I thought it would.

I am 5 weeks today and am still spotting. I dont think it is unusual at all to bleed/spot for 6 weeks.
With Alex, I bled/spotted until 10 weeks (he was a c/s).
With Eddie, also a c/s, I'm just having VERY light spotting now at 6.5 weeks...I think it'll finish up tomorrow or the next day.
