C-section moms - TMI sorry
how long did you bleed for after your C-section? I am 1 week pp and I am pumping and I have such a nasty period, I feel like everytime I go to the bathroom I have stringing blood (sorry TMI) hanging out of me.
How long does this last?
Is this common?
Thank you.

Re: C-section moms - TMI sorry
bled bad for a few weeks. Then it'll seem like it went away, but keep a pad on anyway. Comes sporadically on and off for another week or so. All together maybe 5 weeks.

Re: C-section moms - TMI sorry
I blad really heavy for 2-3 weeks, then it tapered off to mostly spotting until 6 weeks. But I still had some days in between where I needed to wear a pad and not just a liner.

Re: C-section moms - TMI sorry
I am 4 weeks pp tomorrow and still spotting. The bleeding was bad for about two and a half weeks. It's not a period, it's your body emptying out your uterus of all the stuff that was in there during the pregnancy.
Headaches started for me about a week ago, I am assuming from the hormones. Feel better

Re: C-section moms - TMI sorry
I bled for about three weeks - but I bled heavily about 10-14 days PP and had to go to the emergency room because I was also feeling faint/dizzy. Just make sure the bleeding isn't in addition to any other complications and you should be fine.
