I gave birth a month ago and I still haven't stopped bleeding. it's not alot, it's like a little drizzle two or three times a day. I wanna know when will the bleeding completely stop.

Oh yeah I also got the birth control shot, does that have anything to do with it?

    I stopped bleeding at 10days. Then i 14days i got cramps from hell and started gushing blood for 1.5hours soaking my clothes and 3pads in that time then it let up to spotting a few days then quit. Then yesterday at 18days i started bleeding again and im lightly spotting now. It drives me crazy cause its bright red when i get gushes. But then i just spot. Dr says its normal but im going crazy and tired of pads sticking to my ass. I have to unstick it every time i get up which normally involves a hand down the back of my pants.

    Have you tried the Kotex pads? Those are the only ones (same with the panty liners) that don't cause a rash or irritation on me. They have more of a cotton feel, not that plastic like covering on the top. I only use pads after birth.

    Another thought...are you doing too much? I know, hard when you have a baby and possibly more kids. Slow down and rest. My dr. told me if I see bright red blood after the 1st 2-3 weeks, I was doing way to much.

    I stopped bleeding at 6 weeks...had nothing for a week and a half, now it's started again ugh lol *and* I'm breastfeeding! So I was surprised that I started my period already. I'm on the mini-pill which I've not been on before so I assume it's my body adjusting to that. I'm switching pills after I'm done bf-ing; I loved the pill I was on before (loestrin 24fe) so I want it again. (I was off the pill for a yr cuz my fiance was stationed in korea and 3 days after he got home I ended up pregnant lol)
