Postpartum bleeding

So I had my daughter just over a month ago never had any problems with my postpartum bleeding bleed this happened for about four weeks no pain or stomach ache I then stopped bleeding completely a week later I’ve started bleeding again and quite heavily and with bad stomach ache passing clots is this normal?

Uk mums!

Daughter is having general anesthetic for a 10 min procedure. Do I need to pack some pajamas, night nappy and my own snacks for it? I forgot to ask the nurse? Also do they allow hair to be up for the procedure, my girl has crazy hair 😂

Basically any recommendations!

C section pain

Tips for pain management? I’m 6 days post section and having paracetamol and ibuprofen every 4 hours but I’m still sore and only really managing to walk to the toilet and back. They took the stitches out yesterday and it was checked and they’ve said it looks fine.

We were inpatients for quite 4 days as it was an emergency section and baby was in NICU being monitored and having IV antibiotics so have only been home 2 days.
Sorry to add I can’t have codeine/dihydrocodeine due to an allergy!

C-Section

Hi all

On the 20th I have a csection booked due to some complications which is going to be done under GA. What is everyone’s experience with csection under GA and do they use a breathing tube? How long does it take to come around from GA

Pelvic girdle pain

Is anyone else really struggling with pelvic girdle pain? I’m in absolute agony with it and walking is awful, it’s so painful and paracetamol isn’t touching it! My midwife has referred me to the physio but I only have four weeks left and she reckons they might not even get to see me before baby is here😫
