Bleeding after birth and into postpartum – what is normal?
On Parents You've Got This - The Expert Guide to Parenthood podcast we talk about bleeding postpartum. It's one of those things many mums aren't fully prepared for until it happens. How much is normal? When should you worry? And what’s really going on in your body during those first few weeks after birth? To guide us through all of this we welcome back our Obstetrician Expert Dr Peter Jurcevic.
We discuss:
- Postpartum bleeding, what is considered normal
- When postpartum bleeding typically stops
- Is the length and amount of bleeding the same regardless of Caesarean or vaginal delivery?
- Signs that postpartum bleeding is not ‘normal’ and you need to seek medical help
- Warning signs of postpartum hemorrhage or infection that mums should look out for
- When women can typically expect their period again postpartum
- Do your periods change after you have had a baby
- Heavier bleeding and periods
