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?
What was yours like? Did it ever wane and come back?

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?

Ya the more I did the worse it got. Just gotta keep reminding yourself you might feel 100% but your body is still healing.

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!

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.

Bad for two weeks, then better. with activity it would get worse. On and off until about 6 weeks.

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.

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

Mine was pretty heavy for the first 2 weeks, then went away a bit, then came back pretty heavy again. Finally it went away around 5 weeks.
