DVT? 12 days PP

Hayley • 25, mommy to Milo 👦🏻💙 and Ollie 👶🏼💗

Anyone had a DVT after birth? I hemorrhaged badly after birth and they gave me a shot in the stomach for clotting, I don’t think it was a blood thinner, probably the opposite.

My left leg was always more swollen during pregnancy, well, the last month, because that’s the only time I got swelling. Even after birth it was more swollen than my right leg. My right leg when down quicker, and while my left leg is no longer swollen the back of my calf is painfully tight. It’s not hot, it’s not red, but I can’t really walk on it because it doesn’t want to flex. I’m thinking a blood clot and plan on seeing the doctor on Monday. I have an ace bandage wrapped around it and it kind of helps, I took an Epsom salt bath and I’m keeping it up but those are proving to be useless for my pain.

Any ideas? Any suggestions?
