Post birth bleeding - still bright red after over 3 weeks

[NichyNoo]

Can I just check whether this is common before contacting my doctor please?

I gave birth vaginally 25 days ago and have been bleeding ever since. Looking on websites it seems that the blood should no longer be red and should be brown or yellow by now. However I am still bleeding bright red blood. It is a lot less heavy than at first (like the start/end of a period) but it is still bright red. Does anyone know if this is normal as I will contact my doctor if not? Thank you!!

Are you overdoing things?

I bled heavily after my dcs sometimes for more than 6 weeks-and sometimes it has gone from brown lochia back to red.

Are you in any discomfort? is there any 'smell'?

rest a bit more and maybe see the Gp just to be safe.

Hi - no discomfort or smell. Stitches feel a bit tight but nothing else.
