Finally it went away around 5 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-post-partum-bleeding-like#post-908120 Fri, 05 Jul 2013 13:18:32 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 908120@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It was really heavy for over 2 weeks and then finally started spotting for a week after that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-post-partum-bleeding-like#post-908024 Fri, 05 Jul 2013 12:37:21 +0000 cmomma17 908024@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yep, mine picked back up after long walks or days when I took LO out all over town. I really should have been taking it easier than I was. Mine last almost a full 6 weeks, I was afraid I'd still have it at my pp checkup </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-post-partum-bleeding-like#post-907936 Fri, 05 Jul 2013 11:58:46 +0000 lovehoneybee 907936@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine stopped for a week at 4 weeks and then started back up again for another week at 5 weeks. I definitely found that if I was more active (even just walking) it would be heavier. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-post-partum-bleeding-like#post-907933 Fri, 05 Jul 2013 11:55:31 +0000 tysonja 907933@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yep on and off for about 6 weeks :P! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-post-partum-bleeding-like#post-907922 Fri, 05 Jul 2013 11:51:48 +0000 travellingbee 907922@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes it would get lighter then heavier. Ended at 5 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-post-partum-bleeding-like#post-907919 Fri, 05 Jul 2013 11:50:11 +0000 Smurfette 907919@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It was heavy for two weeks, then more spotting for a couple weeks, then gone by 5 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-post-partum-bleeding-like#post-907864 Fri, 05 Jul 2013 11:19:31 +0000 aprk 907864@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bad for two weeks, then better. with activity it would get worse. On and off until about 6 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-post-partum-bleeding-like#post-907862 Fri, 05 Jul 2013 11:18:58 +0000 Crisark 907862@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It was heavy for a week or so then lightened and almost went away and I was excited that maybe it was leaving and then it came back. I would pass clots when I did anything above normal energy ie. laundry, walk a lot more stuff like that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-post-partum-bleeding-like#post-907860 Fri, 05 Jul 2013 11:17:30 +0000 Boheme 907860@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It was off and on until this week when it tapered off. I delivered 5 weeks ago on Saturday. I definitely had days where it would return heavier/brighter than before! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-post-partum-bleeding-like#post-907853 Fri, 05 Jul 2013 11:13:47 +0000 pinkb 907853@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ya the more I did the worse it got. Just gotta keep reminding yourself you might feel 100% but your body is still healing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-post-partum-bleeding-like#post-907842 Fri, 05 Jul 2013 11:08:41 +0000 knittylady 907842@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Good to know! I should add that I'm 3.5 weeks pp. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-post-partum-bleeding-like#post-907841 Fri, 05 Jul 2013 11:07:47 +0000 Silva 907841@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup, it would be pretty much gone and then return (lightly) if I went for a longer walk than usual. SO annoying! I'm sure it will go away completely soon for you. I just wore a panty liner all the time for a while, in case it returned. I think i was totally done by 4 1/2 weeks or so? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-post-partum-bleeding-like#post-907824 Fri, 05 Jul 2013 11:00:21 +0000 knittylady 907824@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My bleeding was really letting up recently and was like that for a few days and then last night and tonight it's picked up again. Nt a scary amount but still. I did go for a two mile walk and have an active day of laundry (which is three flights away) and am wondering if that's what happened?</p> <p>What was yours like? Did it ever wane and come back? </p>
