postpartum bleeding?

Question

Hi all! 4 days postpartum here and my bleeding is super light now...I have all these maxi pads and I barley fill them but I still use them when I breastfeed 😂 
Is this normal or should I expect the flood gates to reopen?

Answer

I’m 6 weeks postpartum and my bleeding stopped at day 8 and was gone until week four then had spotting for 2 days and then stopped and just started spotting this morning again. I’ve worn pads the whole time and thought it was a waste but I’m glad I’ve been wearing them.

Answer

Everyone’s flow is different. But expect for it to last 4 weeks at last. With my first, my flood gates opened wide after a week. And then was light. My bleeding lasted the whole 6-8 weeks!  With my second, I had a trickle for 4 weeks.
