Bleed help

I am confused I had DS just over 6 weeks ago & was bleeding until last week then it stopped seemed to have done so totally. I started exercising again and even had sex. Then days after im bleeding again, at first I thought it may be my period as it seems to be ranging from pink to red , it doesn't seem to be letting out. Could Tbis be my period or have i over done it and got my good friend lochiA back? I can't call HV as it's the weekend the only thing that makes me think it may be a perios is slight period pains but I don't know if it's my imagination HELP!

It sounds like a period from the timing! I bled non stop for about 6 weeks it was crap. Have you had your 6 week check up? I'd say having sex and exercising after 6 weeks is fine if you had a normal delivery.

Take care x

I'd say you might have started the lochia off again sometimes it does when you over exert your body dont forget your body is still very early in recovery x

I had a section and the bleed seems like a period bleed if not heavy lochia I can't do much with it being a weekend does anyone know if I can still get advise from a midwife unit at the hospital ?

OP in my last birth (2 years ago) I could call maternity triage for up to six weeks after birth if I recall correctly. The cut off date varies I think. So it might be worth calling them.
