Can lochia restart?

After a previous thread saying how my lochia had stopped really early on day 6, it's now day 9 and woken up to bright red bleeding again. I had an elcs. Is that normal??

Mine would come and go because I was overdoing it. If I changed the bed sheets it would come back, I did a trip too he's at day 10 and had the sane thing. Try and test as much as possible and speak to the midwives when they come.

Congrats btw Smile

Yes, it's normal. And annoying. Sad

As long as it isn't filling a pad an hour, you're probably fine.

Mine took 3 weeks to stop. It started and stopped a couple times during the 2nd week though.

Mine tended to slow down then start up again if I did too much or walked a bit too far.

Aye, mine stopped and started for about 6-7 weeks. Very light by the end though!
