Too much postpartum bleeding? When will it end?!

Anna

I just hit 6 weeks postpartum!

I’m still waiting on my OB to get me in for my 6 week appointment. I called today to tell them that I’m still bleeding… I’m still waiting for someone to call me back. I just wanted to know if it looked normal?

I’ve been through this cycle about 3 times now. It would be red, then darker red/brown, then taper off until I even hit the light tan color. Then the blood would start back up again!

I thought it was my period when it started again this time, but the bleeding has been on for over a week now since. So I doubt it’s that. It’s still bright red too…

I’ll still get quite a bit of red when wiping. No huge clots, but still smaller blood clots when I use the bathroom (not in the pad)…

Postpartum anxiety is killing me😭

Edit: This was about an hour worth of the bleeding.
