C section Bleeding

Hello C section Mama’s, I’m 6 weeks postpartum on Sunday. The last 3 days I’ve noticed I’ve started bleeding again, it was a dark brown and progressed to red and last night it became heavier. Before this my discharge was yellow (known as lochia) with no blood but now it’s like a period. Unsure if it is my period as I’ve got no pain, just a slight dull back ache. I’ve seen post about how painful the first period is. Can anyone help xx

Could be your period. My first period after my daughter was painless.

@Kalene that’s good to hear, I’m hoping I’m the same as you x

Hello I was 6 weeks pp on Monday and had the same yellow discharge before it turned pink, then brown. It was over in a matter of days for me though, I’m guessing it was a mini period.

@Jess glad someone one has experienced the same, was never really warned about post op bleeding and what to expect. My google search is crazy haha x
