C-sections

uh!!!..bleeding TMI

So I feel like that is all I have done for 7.5 weeks. I had a c-section and had some light bleeding afterwards and it stopped about a week later and then I spotted for a couple of weeks and completely stopped as of today I have bled for 2 solid weeks and its not light it started out simi dark and has gotten bright red like I am on my cycle. Is this normal? Is my first cycle going to be worse then the rest I am cramping and hurting just like its my cycle but I am also have clots. I am not bleeding through a pad within 2 hours however. I just dont know whats going on and I hope I havent gotten an infection for what ever reason. Any advice second time moms??

TIA

Re: uh!!!..bleeding TMI

  • This is kind of what happened to me last time. I had very light bleeding right after my c/s. Then when I was home, I definintely bled more but I think it's bc I was more active just moving around the house. I had bleeding for about 6-8 weeks postpartum.

  • That sounds like mine too. I bleed very little right after but then about 2 weeks later I poured. I was in a wedding 3 weeks after DD was born and went to the bathroom during the reception and had the BIGGEST clot I've ever see. It was 1.5 inches wide and the length of my arm (I had to pull it out) and it was very tough..I thought they had left something in there during the surgery. My doc said it was normal....IT was the length of my arm....doesn't sound normal.
