I had a lovely water birth with DD then a natural third stage which resulted in a PPH. In the notes they have written 600mls blood loss but a doctor at the time thought it was less. The bleeding stopped eventually and I had a drip. I was transferred from the midwifery led unit to the main labour ward but was discharged the next day as planned.
At the time they told me I couldn't have a baby at the midwifery led unit again due to the bleeding but I would really like to and it is not clear that this was a 'proper' PPH from the notes - they have written no postpartum complications on the discharge form. I had my booking appointment yesterday and didn't mention it so have been put down as low risk. I thought if I had the injection this time that I'd be at less risk of bleeding but don't want to cause trouble/take unnecessary risks if it seems likely I'd have bleeding again!
