Hi hun it can go on for a few weeks yet every women is individual, and i'm told that you bleed heavier with your first one, but i don't know how true that is, i can't remember how long i bleed for but it was a while. Don't feel embarrassed how are you supposed to know these things if you don't ask, thats how i feel anyway. congrats on the birth of your lo, mines now 9 months old and i don't know where the time has gone xxxx

hi hon
i've had number 3 baby 4 months ago my first i only bleed for 3 weeks my second was the same but the last one it kept going for 9 weeks slowing right back to a trickle to full start of period type bleeding. if your really worried ask a doctor and remember if you dont feel comfortable with your doctor see a different one. hope it stops soon

hiya,my baby jessica is 11 weeks old now and she is my first baby and i bleed for about 7 weeks in all, it stopped slightly at about 4 weeks then started again,i then had a weeks break and then got my period!i was worried too as i didnt know what to expect, i asked the nurse when i went for my 6-8 week check up and she assured me it was all normal.i think every one is different as there bodies cope in different ways afterwards.hope this helps and your not stupid!!and congrats on your little girl x

Thank you very much for all your advise. If still bleeding when i go 4 my 8 week check will ask then, just really fed up wiv it all now, being my 1st i didnt know wot 2 expect either as none of the books i read while preggers said about this bit, typical that, lol Congratulations to you all on the birth of your children, i hope you r all as happy as i am wiv mine, shes gorgeous and i love her so much. Thank you all again

hi hon just thought i'd ask how your doing now?

after my son i bled for about a week which I think i was quite lucky because my mom bled for 3 months nearly!

hi sweet heart im 7weeks pregnant im due in jan, but i have 3 children already.
i can remember being just the same as you after i had my first baby at 19 and was very scared as you dont have anythink to go buy.
but believe me it is perfectly normal to worrie. your not alone. even i worrie and i have had 3 like i said and bled right up untill my 2nd month of babys being born. but honey always better to get checked out because you can make it harder for yourself with worrie.
im sure all is well but dont take chance love.
congrats on the birth of your beuitfull girl bet you dead proud and are fantastic

Hi, I'm a mother 2 a 9 month old and after I had my baby I bleed for more than 5 weeks, I was so concerned by it so I asked for some feedback from health vistior and midwife. they both said the same things that it was absolutely normal to bleed for couple of weeks straight after the birth. My bleeding was much lighter near to the end of it.
