13 days post c section

I had my second elective c section 13 days ago… my blood loss has been so minimal I only bled for the first 7 days and it was only quite light…it stopped for a few days then today and yesterday I’ve started to bleed again and it’s a bit of a heavier flow. Has anyone else experienced similar?

Yes, I had bleeding that leaked onto the ER floor. I got an ultrasound though to check if I had any leftover placental tissue and the coast was clear

Yes this also happened to me, spoke to the midwife she said this was completely normal but to ensure that if the clots are big and abnormal to then seek help, speak to your midwife if you’re worried about anything or 111

Same. Haven’t had a cycle since and it’s been 10 months. Dr is still saying it’s normal. Never been the same since got multiple problems now. Get checked over if u can may or may not be connected.

Yes my pp bleeding came back after a week of stopping

Rant incoming

Sorry but I just need to get this off my chest and to see if anyone else feels the same.

I’m currently 16 weeks pregnant and apart from the booking midwife appointment and scan I’ve had no support from the NHS what so ever. I was referred to a service but haven’t heard a thing and now this morning I nearly passed out on the train. Tried to call midwife but I cannot find a number and when I did they said if your under 17 weeks then call your gp. I just feel totally alone in this and have no one to ask any of the important questions like is nearly passing out normal!?

35 weeks no birth plan

I’m 35 weeks high bp and gestational diabetes still with no birth plan is this normal? I feel they are being pretty blasé with me I haven’t got any more midwife appointments face to face only on the phone

Baby can be here at anytime now and still no names 🥴

Everyone says boys are the hardest when it comes to name and they weren’t not joking!
I even asked my nearly 4 years old what we should name her baby brother and her suggestions was ‘Cutie’… cute for a baby name but I am not sure that would be a appropriate for a grown man one day! 😂

C section recovery

I am 10 days post surgery and now starting to consider future recovery, compression leggings and bands etc. Any recommendations from anyone? Not sure really where to start!
