I had a C-section 16 days ago, and until now, I was experiencing only light spotting or barely any bleeding. However, today I noticed a sudden increase in bleeding — it’s pinkish to brown in color, and while not soaking through pads quickly, it was more than I’ve seen in the past several days.
There are no clots, no foul odor, and I’m not experiencing fever, dizziness, or abdominal pain at the moment. I’ve attached a photo for reference.
Could this be a normal part of postpartum healing, or should I be concerned? Please advise if I need to come in or take any specific precautions.
