I had an emergency c section and barely bled vaginally afterwards - very different from my first two vaginal births. Although I did haemorrhage pretty badly so I don't know if that makes a difference to the amount of blood etc they suctioned out while I was still in theatre.

Have you told your Gp/midwife?

My community midwife told me to expect my post birth bleeding to stop and start for a few weeks after depending on how much I pushed myself physically etc.

I'm 4 weeks post section and my bleeding stopped last week, though still getting pink/brown discharge.
I have been told that if you are expressing, when you pump it causes your uterus to contract which will result in a gush of blood, so you may find you bleed for a little longer than other ladies.
Saying that I know some ladies that bled for months!

I had an an emergency csec back in May I think I bled heavily for about two weeks then very lightly for up eight or nine weeks in total. Had a break of a couple of weeks no bleeding then got my first period lol - it felt like a long time!!! Confused
