Passing Blood Clots After C Section

I had a ton of blood clots with my son.

Passing blood clots after c section. Abdominal pain after c section is normal and it s due to surgical stress on your belly. He said that helps significantly with bleeding after. Make sure you re massaging your uterus every so often and that really helps i bled 6 weeks straight because my first hospital didnt tell me to do that and only 1 week with my 2nd c section doing that.

Blood clots are serious business. Following a c section you may experience less bleeding after 24 hours than someone who has given birth vaginally. Post delivery if the blood doesn t pass through the vagina it may form clots.

Clots can range in size and may be as large as a plum. As blood accumulates in your abdomen your belly starts to swell up too. I think my first doctor said i could expect up to one week of clots.

I had a c section and ever since i gave birth i have passed huge clots. Signs of internal bleeding after c section abdominal pain. Like the size of my palm.

Also it can depend on how well you were vacuumed out after your c section. It has long been clear that pregnancy itself raises a woman s odds of developing blood clots before or in the weeks after delivery. So for me it s normal.

My periods are extremely heavy now and i pass freaky size clots. You have a cough shortness or breath or pain in your chest which could be a sign of a blood clot. If you are worried i d talk to your doctor but i remember passing lots of big clots postpartum and every single period since.
