Hi, please could anyone tell me if this is normal.
I’m 3 1/2 weeks postpartum.
I had some placenta left in my after birth and haemorrhaged the day after giving birth so hand to go to theatre.

last week I had pain just above my pubic bone so was given antibiotics. I’m waiting for a scan to make sure that all the placenta is gone.

Today I was in pain and went to the loo and passed this (see image). Is it normal or do I need to contact the doctor again?

I would definitely contact your doctor. I can't quite remember what my postpartum bleeding looked like but whilst it's not definitely something to be concerned about, given your history I don't think it would harm to ask the question.
