hope this is the best place to put this thread... baby boy now 12 days old ( already!) and we are breastfeeding. After a feed I get a bit of fresh bleeding - all as expected and not v much at all - I'm not worried about it happening but just wondered how long I can expect that to keep happening? Lochia otherwise is tailing off to peachy/brown colour.
Background is that I had a PPH when he was born and unfortunately finding it quite hard to 'get over' - when I feel a dribble of blood or see the fresh blood on the pad I get a bit panicky and freaked out :( it's frustrating because I was never squeamish about blood before and it's much less than a period and I know it will happen, but I just can't seem to control the panic response at the minute.
