What is one thing you wish someone would have warned you about before giving birth?
I wish someone told me about the blood. This seems like the equivalent of a period, but I know it only gets worse.

@Brooke from what I understand, this isn’t even the period. I’m 5 days postpartum and I’m bleeding. It could also be from the 3rd degree tear my doctor gave me too though.
@Allana Nikpouri oh I know it’s not a period I’m just saying it’s bleeding that could last for 6 weeks. I heard the more you breastfeed it could last longer. I’m still bleeding and I’m 8 day PP from my c section.
Oof. Mine has slowed for now.
The bleeding, I would be okay with. It’s the pain from my stitches that I could live without

It’s like having a period for 6 weeks. Punishment for not having it for 9 months
