Hi there,
just wondering if anyone has any advice I had a c section just over 6 weeks ago and I lost a lot of blood (800ml) due to undiagnosed placenta previa. My recovery was pretty standard, although I only now am going on walks etc and cleaning.
a few days ago I felt good so I walked to the town centre with the pram and looked in the shops for a few hours- then felt so good I cleaned the house lol as it was the first time in weeks I’d felt human and got some good sleep lol
when I got back I stared bleeding bright red blood and it hasn’t stopped for days now. This happened a couple of weeks ago too when I went for a 15 min walk.
I’ve stayed active cleaning etc this week as I’m really upset with my post partum weight gain, my legs are like tree trunks atm lol but I’m just wondering what I should do? I’ve been signed off from midwives, health visitor says it’s normal after exerting yourself. But it’s really freaking me out. Looked at going to the maternity triage but again you’re signed off after 2 weeks. I can’t face going back to the bed rest thing, I’m very depressed and it was making me worse not doing anything if that makes sense. Has anyone else experienced this? Any advice? Thank you xxxx
