Hi. I am running 1month and 15 days postpartum. I am still experiencing bleeding and sometimes it becomes heavy (like 2nd day of periods) and continues for couple of days, and sometimes it stops for 2-4 days. Sometimes it is like spotting. I had a normal delivery (took epidural) and breastfeeding my baby regularly. I am just concerned on why the bleeding is increasing in between and it should have stopped by now. Any suggestions??

A. But this time it should actually decrease because the period should not say for more than 40 days if you are still facing on and off heavy bleeding then I will suggest you that you please visit your doctor once doctors
