I’m 6 weeks post partum and had bleeding/discharge for about 4 weeks that heavily reduced to barely anything (also dark in colour like old blood etc).
The last few days I’ve had bright red blood on my pad however it’s still incredibly light, I was told the first period post partum was horrendous so now I’m wondering what it could be?

I’d also heard the first pp period was horrific however I’ve had 2 now and they’ve been even lighter/better than my periods before pregnancy. I think it’s down to the individual to be honest x

I got mine a few days ago and mine had been really light as well! Was expecting it to be heavy and painful x
