XP and TMI: discharge...

It has been 5 weeks since my c-section.  The heavy bleeding stopped about 2 weeks ago, but was replaced with a brownish smelly discharge.  It's not a lot-maybe 1 pantiliner per day, but it is quite smelly-almost fishy (sorry for the TMI).  Anyone else experiencing this?

    I didn't. The brownish is probably old blood still coming out, but I don't know anything about the smell

    I'd call your OB and ask the nurse about this.  Smelly usually means an infection of some kind, maybe a yeast infection?  Did they give you antibiotics after your csection?  I know I was given three rounds of diflucan after the IV antibiotics to prevent a yeast infection.  You could even have some retained placenta causing an infection, so I'd call right away.
