I had my section 2 weeks ago and I noticed my bleeding was fading away.
Fast forward to now and I've woken up to blood on my bed sheet bright red as I haven't been wearing a pad.a few days as the blood loss had virtually disappeared. It was the first time I'd had 2 glasses of wine since before pregnancy and I'm worried this could have caused something or am I being silly 🙃

Lochia bleeding comes and goes for weeks. Don't worry, that's totally normal. I keep forgetting to use a pad because I think it's stopped and then I get a random gush a couple of days later and I've bled through my shorts. Annoying, but totally normal. It only becomes a concern if it's very very heavy (soaks a pad in an hour) or there are giant clots. Don't beat yourself up about relaxing with a glass of wine

Omg i had the same experience, it went fading away and then two days back bleeding started, I was concerned but thanks …this really helped

The bleeding will come and go usually for a month after birth x
Thanks guys xx
