Girls who had vaginal deliveries

How long does the period-like bleeding last? I can't stand having to wear pads and not being able to use tampons.

I think about 3-4 weeks. It got a lot lighter though after the first couple of weeks.

Re: Girls who had vaginal deliveries

I had a vaginal delivery. My bleeding lasted about 5-6 weeks.

From what I was told by the Dr. bleeding is not much different for those with a c-section.

That's what I was told as well but with a c-section you can't use a tampon until at least 6 weeks. Is it the same for vaginal?

No tampons (or anything Chat Icon ) for 6 weeks. Mine lasted 4 or 5 weeks.

Re: Girls who had vaginal deliveries

I think it was only 2, maybe 3 weeks. I know I went back to work at 3 weeks and I don't think I was wearing a pad, maybe a panty liner.
