Looking for some advice about blood loss after labour. I had an episiotomy during labour however my stitches seem ok. I'm not sure if my blood loss is normal. I'm 12 days past the birth date and my blood loss keeps changing. It had almost stopped completely however the last few days it's started to increase again. I haven't had any massive blood clots and it isn't filling a sanitary pad in an hour but it does seem to be increasing slightly and I have been slightly light headed.
Do you think I need to get it checked out? I was signed off by the midwives a few days ago so feel silly ringing up again if it's normal. Thanks.
