How long did your post partum bleeding last?

I’m 10 days post partum and my bleeding is very light, but when did everyone stop bleeding completely? I want my intimacy back with my partner but don’t feel comfortable while still bleeding (not sex as I am aware I should wait 6 weeks to fully heal internally)

Mine stopped after about 6 weeks completely x

My bleeding stopped at around 6 weeks and my period restarted again at 9 weeks xx

Around 4 weeks x

6 weeks

i am 14 days PP and feel like mine might stop soon, it was always really light and now close to nothing

Mine stopped 5wks then the following week I was spotting fully stopped by 7wks. Period came back at 10wks and has been consistent since! X

3.5 weeks for heavy bleeding, and another 2 weeks for light bleeding/spotting

I was the same I stopped bleeding altogether at 16days for two weeks then I had my first normal period x

It really all depends on the person and what your postpartum recovery looks like. If you aren’t taking it easy and lifting heavy things and what not the bleeding will go on longer than if you’re relaxing and allowing your body to recover.

I’m 3.5 week and it’s intermittent, it stops and starts but nothing too heavy luckily

Im at 4 weeks so far... was done around 2 weeks. Then my parents left town and i had no more help with my toddler (2 year old) so i started bleeding again pretty heavy at 3 weeks pp. Hoping it keeps easing up now.. im so done wearing pads. 😫

Mine fully stopped at 2 weeks and has started up slightly at just over 5 weeks which I'm assuming may be a period

4 weeks
