should I still be bleeding?

[mckenzie]

DD is 5 and a half weeks old and I am still bleeding. It looks like fresh blood, nothing heavy, only enough for a panty liner. It's a bit like a continuing very light period.
IS this okay do you think? I cant remember what happened after DS as it was too long ago.

thanks for any advice

I'm sure that is fine. I bled for about 6 weeks after my first baby. If you are worried you can mention it at your 6 week check.
