It’s been 6 years since my c-section and with baby boy I am scheduled for another one. Honestly the pain wasn’t horrible for me but I have a high pain tolerance. It was the walking bent over for me. You feel like if you stand up straight you will rip your stitches out. That feeling for me lasted about 2 weeks.

So ladies help me understand a lot of people say that the previous pictures that I put looks like a normal cycle but please help me understand the levels of a cycle because this is how it all started first picture it’s going to be yesterday second picture is how it was this morning and third picture would behow it is now. I am not filling up a pad. It’s just little drops and then when I wipe it’s pink but everybody keeps saying it’s a normal cycle when my cycle is normal I tend to fill a pad up within two hours, and I tend to have to change my tampon every hour so someone please help me understand is this a normal cycle or what?

It’s frustrating and then I read online. If it is implantation bleeding I have to wait a couple of days after to test because the test won’t come out positive. It won’t be an accurate testing so I’m confused myself I don’t know what to say. I don’t know what what to do this is confusing.

My cousin bleed for the full 6 weeks. I'm bleeding on and off. I just started bleeding bright red blood again, when I haven't done that in a while. But I also, know I was trying to deliver vaginally before my unplanned csection and used a vacuum and that tore me a little bit, but I'm wondering if something happened with that to cause my bleeding to reoccur. I know I was told no sex or anything inserted into your vagina for 6 weeks or until you get Dr's approval, but I do know some people don't follow that. I know my fiance tried to get some last night. But I said no, not comfortable, plus still healing also.

Yes I thought I was dying because of the cramps and how heavy it was compared to pre pregnancy periods but I heard it was normal for the first one after birth to be like that

🥴 hate to say it but, I would rather be pregnant again. Tampons & pads aren’t cheap & 9 months of pregnancy was well worth all the rib cage kicks, I’d do it all over again😅

Feeling intimidated about birth control now that our baby is born. Since we're breastfeeding, it could be a long time before having another menstrual cycle.
