Bleeding after c section question

Nicole

I had a c-section on March 5th, I’m a week and 4 days out. My bleeding for the first 5-7 days has been no different than a regular monthly cycle. Then it began to lessen and turn brown, all of which has been made known to me as normal.

As of today I’ve had 3 small clots come out as I wipe about the length of a toothpaste strip on a toothbrush, and my blood is vibrant red again.

No increase in pain. Still contracting when I get up from laying down/sitting or using the bathroom.

Is this normal or same as what anyone else has experienced?

My post csection visit is just over 2 weeks after surgery date, so next Monday
