bleeding after c-section?

by nursekim, Jul 12, 2008 11:08AM
How long do you normally bleed after a c-section?  I am nearly 2 weeks out and am still having bright red blood, not excessive or anything, I just thought it would have started to lessen by now.

I bled for 5 weeks after both of my c-sections.

It should be less than it was at first, but won't stop for 4-6 weeks.
