Bleeding smells bad?

Question

Okay did anyone find that once their bleeding got super light or turned to lochia, that it kinda had a gross smell to it? Like id shower everyday, change my panty liner every hour and use a wet wipe after each pee and it still smelt bad? But as soon as I stopped bleeding that smell went away. So confused

Answer

Same here the blood smelled bad for 3 weeks and now I'm 4 weeks pp and now having pinkish/yellowish discharge and it's not as strong but still doesn't smell great..

Answer

Same thing happened to me until about 4-5 weeks pp

Answer

Yep!! I think it’s normal! It happened with all my babies! 🤷🏼‍♀️ I’m at that point right now and would love to not have that smell haha 😂

Answer

Mine smelled the entire time I had PP bleeding. Even after I stopped bleeding and was just spotting. And I shower twice a day would use wet wipes to clean up down there change my pad every hour. 🤦🏼‍♀️ but then I started having discharge and now I have my period and no more smell. I think it’s fairly normal.

Answer

Mine did but it finally went away. Now I have my period 🙄

Answer

Mine too, and my hygiene is also good. I think everything down there is trying to return to normal and this is just part of the good bacteria getting back to a good ph level.
