I’m 6 week post c section. Lochia bleeding stopped around 4 week. Today I went to the toilet and when I wiped there was a lot of blood and this stitch (pic attached)
i didn’t bleed again till around 6 hours later when I went to the toilet and there was a lot of blood on the tissue again. I’ve stuck a pad on and now it’s just light in the pad and more when I wipe.
has this ever happened and is it normal?!
I see my GP in 3 days for my 6 week check up. I’m in no pain but a little concerned I’ve opened inside.

Hi @Hopeful3092 we're moving your thread to our Postnatal Health topic - hopefully some Mumsnetters will be along shortly.

Yeah I bled for 2-3 weeks and then it stopped (false stop!!) and it started again. It’s normal according to the midwife I spoke to
