PP Bleeding

I’m 9 weeks postpartum tomorrow and my bleeding still hasn’t stopped. I was under the impression that I got my period back almost 2 weeks ago and it lasted around a week and a few days (I had period like pains that made me think this along with a little heavier bleeding after PP bleeding slowing down) but that seems to have passed but over the last few days I’ve had bright red blood again and I’m worried as I really don’t know what this is? With my first baby my bleeding had stopped after 3 weeks so a bit concerned about what this would be.

Any suggestions?

You should definitely talk to your doctor, you might still have part of the placenta attached. I think that's why that usually happens.

Hospital bag (UK)

What did everyone pack for their section? I'm staying in for 3 days due to mental health, not really sure what I'll need to bring, feeling very nervous. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Pregnancy after c section

What time scale did everyone get pregnant again after a c section?
I know the doc said they recommend eating at least a year to 18 months but it took 4 years to get pregnant the first time after being told we could not conceive naturally so not wanting to stop it happening knowing it could take a very long time again but also worried.

Labour

Think im a bit confused really, i went into traige as was having contractions eveey 3-5mins. Since being here im now having them every 2-3mins which was confirmed with the machine and i think the toco was 90-100 and they feel painful and my lower back is in loads of pain but apparently im only just over 2cm dilated maybe, she has said i can stay here for a bit longer to see if things progress as had a previous quick birth as well but i dont understand why the pains are coming this quick if im only 2cm dilated and feel a bit deflated from it also.

I had a sweep this morning also.

Reduced movements

26 weeks and haven’t really felt little baby all day, she’s usually super active & I have a posterior placenta so I feel her all the time usually. I did feel her ever so briefly earlier right down into my pelvis. I was at maternity triage the other night with tummy cramps but everything was fine and so was baby. What should I do? I don’t want to feel like a nuisance?
