When do you stop bleeding after a Csection?

I had a Csection 4 weeks ago tomorrow %26amp; I still have some bleeding is this normal? I would have asked the DR at my 2 week check-up, but at that point the bleeding had stopped for 24 hrs %26amp; I told the DR I wasn't bleeding anymore, but then it started up again?



It's been very light , only changing my pad once per day is this normaL ??When do you stop bleeding after a Csection?It took me a while but not 4 weeks. Maybe have your blood levels checked to be certain you have enough of everything.



If there is no pain or fever I wouldn't suspect the incision area but something different like hormones or white count to be out of whack.



Just make sure you aren't lifting too much and that the baby is at a level where you don't have to bend your back to pick them up.

6 to 8 weeks in total it varies really...



But the heavy bleeding shouldn't last more than a couple of weeks, unless you are overdoing it physically.
