Q: Lochia/postpartum Bleeding Question
asked by: so_n2_u1116 on October 21st, 2006

I read on a website that the blood should only be red for 4 days after the birth, then it should be brown. If it lasts longer it is a problem. This is my 10th day and its still red. Is it really a problem?

I bled bright red blood for about 7 weeks. And it was a lot of blood.
It wasnt slowing down so they put me on the pill and it stopped.

I also had this problem...But my bleeding changed from bright red to pink after about a week and a half. I had called my doctor after 7 days, and she said as long as I wasn't passing clots bigger then a golf ball, to not worry. And sure enough, my bleeding got better like 3 days later.
