Pain & Blood Clot! TMI warning ⚠️
Show your support
Blood clot bigger than a golf ball is concerning and warrants an ER visit. Especially if you feel gushing liquid at any point.
I would get seen asap. You can still have a hemorrhage up to two weeks after delivery.
@Monique they told me I don’t have it? That’s weird?
@Elesha that’s how I felt yesterday and it felt like I pushed out another baby lol 😂 it felt so weird 🫢
@Allie I will keep monitoring it. If I get another one I’ll go into the ER. It only happened yesterday I’ll see if it happened again today.
@Rachel yeah I had like quarter size clots after that big one and they told me that was normal 😳 I’m 25 days PP and still wearing diapers but I also had a retained placenta with a manual removal so they told me I’d bleed harder and longer
@Allie yea they told me I should be bleeding after a week or when I leave hospital but I’ve been bleeding very heavy lately so I was a bit confused 😕
@Rachel it wouldn't be a bad idea to take iron and also watch signs from your body that you are bleeding too much. Like feeling dizzy, weak, and neasuous. You don't want to bleed out or get an infection if it was the scab from the placenta wound.
@Elesha okay somehow it only happened last night. Today I feel fine but I will keep a watch for it! Thank you! ☺️
I would reach out to your care team to get the proper advice on how to navigate this.
That happened to me but I think it was even a little later. It was huge and I messaged my midwife to ask. They said to monitor it and if it gets worse to come in. It just consistently got a little lighter but the clumps were big for a few days.
