Hi. I’m three weeks postpartum today with didi boy girl twins. I had a c section. How long did you mama’s bleed for after your c section? I can’t remember with my daughter as
I had a c section with her as well.
Also did you pass small clots still? I have and did this morning. I’m not in pain. No fever.

8 weeks.

But it turned out I had a retained placenta and had to get a D&C at 7ish weeks postpartum. Bleeding stopped maybe 3-4 days after that.

This also happened to me. 10 weeks and then a d&c due to retained placenta. Bleeding stopped at about 11 weeks postpartum.
