Bleeding!!

I had my baby girl 5 days ago, bleeding is off and on. When I got up this morning to change my pad I say back down and felt very heavy bleeding so I went to the toilet to check and it was very heavy and little bits of spots and this lump. Is it normal?

Very normal. I lost clots off and on until 4 weeks for my first. And about 2 weeks this time. Both time the spotting or bleeding lingered until 6 weeks PP.I'm amazed no one warned you about this.

My midwives left me with a sheet about everything to check up on and things that would happen after the home birth. But it was my second baby too so I remembered this part.

They probably did, but there's sooooo much to remember. So making sure. Thank you

Its a blood clot. I was told as long as it isnt bigger than a golf ball its okay.
