i had my baby on 13th November 09 via c-section. everything went well and recovery was good. locia finished after a couple of weeks. But...when bub was 8 weeks exactly i started bleeding super heavy, changing pad every 2 hours and it lasted 8 days. i went to doc after 7 days but he only cared to check my iron levels (which were fine because i was taking loads of supplemets) I started taking mini pill then and bleedins stopped in a few days. 2 weeks later i started bleeding again, very heavy, stopped after 3 days and then started again 2 weeks later again and now lasting 6 days. I am excuslively breastfeeding soon and have a super healthy girl.
Has anyone else experienced anything similar? Bub is 14 weeks and i have bleed 3 times in the past 5 weeks. Any ideas. have lost faith in the doc and feel stupid going back in. note, this is my first baby. thankd ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

I know that when I started on the mini pill at 6 weeks I would have breakthrough bleeding every 2 weeks and it drove me mad, It was pretty much a normal period every 2 weeks, I ended up stopping and not using anything which is why I'm due to have my 2nd soon . I think the breakthrough beeding is suppose to stop after a few months.------------- http://www.alterna-tickers.com">

Hi we had our babies on the same day also via c-sec
Im not sure which of my babies it was now but after one of them I bleed a lot every couple of weeks like you are for 6 months, I to was exclusively breastfeeding. They found no cause for me and just put it down to my body getting used to all the hormonal changes ------------- http://lilypie.com">
