After birth bleeding?

Question

When did yours stop?? With my first I had a 2nd degree tear and if I remember right I bled for a couple of weeks. I’m now 6 days PP with my second, no tear, and I’m just spotting dark blood.. almost like the “old” blood at the end of a period. Is it normal for the bleeding to subside this quickly??

Answer

After having both of my sons (no tearing both times) I bled for only 2 and a half weeks both times.

Answer

I had a cesarean and bled dam near a month with spotting

Answer

I’ve just been barely spotting for weeks. It’s driving me nuts. Just enough so I still need a pad. I’m at 4 weeks and 2 days pp now. When will it end???????? 🤣 
Third baby. Vaginal delivery, small tear. 
Honestly can’t remember how long I bled with my first two. 
Just curious if you have a bearded dragon. Saw the 🐊 on your signature. I have an orange one. Or maybe you have a crocodile? That would be amazing.

Answer

It actually has a lot less to do with the degree of tear etc and how quickly and efficiently your body gets rid of the post birth ‘material’ so to speak and how quickly you heal in general.

Answer

Episiotomy and bled for 8 weeks 😑

Answer

With my first, even with several second degree tears I stopped bleeding by a week pp, then on day 10 pp I had one last huge gush of blood (it was a bit scary to be honest) and then I was done. I didn’t bleed another drop of blood again for seven months until my period returned.

Answer

My sister in law only bled for 5 days.
Everyone is different.

Answer

Completely cleared after about 10 days

Answer

I had to be cut and I had stitches from the inside and out. I stopped bleeding at 2 weeks pp!

Answer

I had a minor tear with my eldest and only bled for 10 days (including spotting). I think everyone is different with how long they bleed.
