Might be tmi, but I need an answer!! I had my baby via c-section 1 week ago and tonight I walked into the kitchen to make a bottle and I was standing there and it felt like I peed myself a little. It was weird, so I looked and there was a tiny puddle of blood on my pad. It felt like I peed a little, but it was blood thin kinda bright. There was only a little, but I want to make sure its normal. I then went to the bathroom and peed and nothing else happend. Im kinda worried just wanna make sure its okay. Any answers, if you had this????

  1. dont worry this is normal I had 2 c sections and had the same thing happen to me the first time and of course only 19 and parranoid I went to the er and they had me follow up with my doc she told me it is ok and I can bleed heavy or maybe just spot for up to 2 months so it is ok and dont worry your self the baby will sence that and be irritated hope this helps and congrats on the baby \


  2. I think thats normal.  I bled alot 1 week after my c-section.

  3. Yes, normal.  Completely normal.  I have had 2 c-sections, and the second time around I overdid it at around two or three weeks post surgery and thought I could tote my toddlers around with the double stroller (genius, i know) and I lost a GUSH of blood.  It soaked through my underwear and pants and everything.  My Dr. told me to take it easy and lift my feet up...

    A small amount I wouldn't worry too much about.  They always say if you bleed more than a tampon's worth an hour to call....

    Hey, congratulations! ;)  

  4. i had a c-section too, and yeah, this is normal. you'll continue to bleed for maybe 6 weeks. however, if you're still worried, you can ask your doctor. but I bled sporadically for two months, and my doctor said it was fine. =) hope this helped.

  5. You will bleed for a while after giving birth.  It's a little different after a c-section because they generally scoop out as much blood and things out when they remove the placenta so you don't bleed very much at all, most women just spot.

    I spotted for about 2 weeks, some days heavier then others, and that was it.  I had that feeling you described as well, I would run to the bathroom to make sure that I didn't actually pee myself the first few times.  I don't know why it feels like that, but it's normal.

    Congrats on the wee one!

  6. Your uterus is still contracting back to it normal size so its likely that you will have some sort of blood loss  from your uterus simply contracting which will beoainless but can sometimes feel as if you have just had some bladder weakness. If the blood loss increases or is accompained with lower abdominal pain then see your Doc.
