Second+ time mamas- Lochia

Cr

So with my first I bled for 6 weeks straight and then started my period immediately at 8 weeks pp (yes, despite bfing). I did tear and had stitches but I don’t think my stitches were bleeding, I had no pain in that area just endless blood. I’m willing to try any tricks or voodoo that can make sure that doesn’t happen to me again. How long did you bleed and was there anything you did/practiced that you think helped?

Btw- I gave vaginal birth. Idk if the times are different for csections
