PP bleeding question - is this normal?
I've been having a strange pain accompianied by bleeding 
im 6.5 weeks PP and THOUGHT i was done bleeding. Last wednesday, I thought I was getting AF but I hardly bled and it was coming and going for a day or two.
yesterday, I started having a strange pain and I couldnt really describe where it was coming from. Almost a burning, ache. Initially, I told my husband I thought it was my uterus and then thought maybe a UTI b/c of the burn? We were in the car and as soon as we got to his parents house (for father's day) I started bleeding heavily ... of COURSE I was wearing white pants and of course I bled through   had to go home to change.
Same thing today. I have this pain and then bleed and then it stops for hours and then same thing all over again. Has anyone ever experienced this?

It may be AF if you already stopped bleeding?  If the pain is severe I would call your OB. Did you already have your 6 week appointment?

funny thing is, i had my 6 week appointment on the day I thought i was getting AF - I actually noticed when I was in the bathroom there "emptying my bladder"  My OB basically dismissed it when I said I thought I was getting AF - he said it could take months.
Now looking back, it was probably just spotting from PP bleeding because it only lasted 1-2 days.
The pain really feels like a UTI but I dont have the urgency to pee or pain during/after peeing. I dont think its my bladder I hope its not an infection of some sort - no fever and I feel fine otherwise.
sigh

I would call your ob. You may have retained some of the placenta and your body is trying to expel it. Better safe then sorry so give a call.
I will say my pp period with ds I thought I was dying. It was painful and extremely messy. Each one after got better.
