When should the bleeding stop?

Kingston54 · January 2013

I'm not really bleeding... just every once in a while when I pee, I still get some bright red blood - and not a lot, just a little. LO will be one month on Sunday. Normal? Thanks

I think it's different for everyone and with every pregnancy. I feel like I bled off and on forever with DD1. I was done bleeding with DS after a couple weeks. This time I stopped bleeding after a week, but still have spotting late afternoon and early evening.

Today was the first day I went to the bathroom w out the bright red spotting.. and I had very light pink/brown spotting until a few days ago. Everyone is different, but you sound pretty much right on to me.

you'll definitely get a range of answers. With DS I bled lightly/spotted for 2 weeks...my SIL was about 7-8 weeks with both of her kids.

With my older boys I bled for about a month.

I think it's totally normal - it can range greatly from woman to woman. I bled for about 3.5 weeks and then finished. However, I know some women who bled for 12 + weeks. Hopefully you stop soon, I know how annoying it can be.

I'll be 7 weeks pp on Monday and I'm STILL bleeding. My midwife was a little concerned and told me to call them if I hadn't stopped bleeding by week 8.
