PP Bleeding

Just curious to hear from our experienced moms how long they bled after delivering. Reese was born a week ago and I had some tearing and I'm just tired of the bleeding and swelling. It would be easier to take care of a newborn if I wasn't worrying about changing a pad constantly.

  • It depends on a lot of things - how you delivered, whether you're breastfeeding or not, your activity level as you recover, and just luck I guess.

    With Charlie I bled for about 2 weeks, but I was up and moving really soon after to visit him in t

  • Both of my LOs were vaginal deliveries and breastfed.....my PP bleeding lasted 4 weeks. With DD (my second) the bleeding did not seem as heavy but the cramping was definitely more intense.

  • DD was breast fed, so my bleeding/cramping was very intense for two weeks. After that, it tapered to a light period for another week.

  • Another FTM question - can you use a heating pad p.p. like you do when you have your period for cramping/contractions? I know we'll be getting into the summer months so water/hydration will be key.

  • C section here still bleeding pretty regular after a week and a half. Bleeding doesn't bother me so much as not being able to do much after the surgery. I almost still feel pregnant with the limitations I have.
