Vaginal delivery

Ok so this might be a dumb question so please no snotty comments. With my first child I had a c section. Well I bled for about a month after he was here. I'm just wondering if it's the same way with a vaginal delivery? This was something no one told me about when I was pregnant the first time and I guess I didn't even think about it either so it was a huge surprise that it lasted that long!
