Hopefully someone can answer this for me..because well, I just don't know.
Is it normal after almost 5 weeks post partum to all of a sudden start bleeding fairly heavily again? It's like it would be probably..eh.. 3 or 4 days after delivery. I'm just tired of soaking pads left and right and bleeding through clothes and ya know..well..it's just gross.
I thought maybe it was happening because Lyndsay was here and like..ya know how when females hang around one another for a while..that whole thing happens? But fah reals..should I be like..worried about this or..just carry on with the bleeding?
Seriously.

Hey, Ab. I've had that happen to me too before. Remember that after having a baby, you have a very good sized wound inside your uterus where the placenta was attached. It takes a good six weeks for that wound to heal, and if you overdo things, longer. You've probably been lifting too much too often and feeling good physically, so you think you're more healed than you really are on the inside. Take it easy for a few days. Don't lift Calix if you can help it and stay down. Rest on the couch or in bed and watch some movies with your little guys and get lots of rest and fluids. It should slow down again within a day or two. If not, then make a doctor's appointment.
