3 weeks Postpartum Bleeding

A few days ago, my bleeding had slowed down and the color was dark brown. I only needed to wear a pantyliner. But I just a couple of days ago, I started bleeding bright red again and I'm back to pads. I'm not doing anything different in the past few days, is this normal?

  • I think that's normal.  Mine was like that too.  Then it got very light and has been that way for several days.  I know that lifting anything heavy made the bleeding worse.

  • Thanks Everyone, I feel better knowing that this is normal. I didn't want to call the doctor about something that was really nothing.

    If I am on my feet more I bleed heavier and red.  If LO cries a lot when someone else is holding her I bleed heavier.  I usually lay down for awhile if I have been on my feet and it goes back to normal.
