I had ds3 13 weeks ago, have since had a period but every time me and dp have sex i end up bleeding every where. It lasts about 2/3 days an is bright red and heavy.

I hemeroged (sp) with ds2 an am worried something is not right.

Has this happened to anyone else?

Yes, since having my DD (6 months ago) I bleed after sex and it lasts for a few days afterwards. I have a prolapsed uterus and a cystocele though and sex is often painful, during and afterwards.

I also have a cystocele, i've been to see my gp but he said i have to wait a few months after having Ds3 before they will do anything.

Its not very comfy ?? when we are dtd but not painful enough to stop. Could the prolapse be the problem?

At least im not alone Grin

you've been bleeding for 13 weeks? Erm, take your fanny to see a doctor to rule out a wee infection. Cystocele can make sex painful, but, bleeding really should be checked out. x

I bled for weeks and weeks after having ds and I had a section. Bleeding always got worse after I was busy or 'exertion.'

I havent been constanly bleeding for 13 weeks Grin just after sex, i had injuries after ds2, he was born very poorly, so i was left bleeding un noticed for a while, when it was found i had to have a manual extraction which involved a dr having to put their arm 'up' me, to use their hand to empty my womb.
Ds3 was born in 11 mins, so i am just a bit worried that maybe something had happened up there as the blood is new everytime

If you feel otherwise well (apart from being knackered with a newborn, and a sex life - stealth boast noted) then there's no doubt not much to worry about.

However, bleeding and pain like that should be checked out, especially with a history like yours. Jeezo, that DS2 was a bother, eh?

Take your vag to a medic. It's the only way to be sure all is as it should be. x
