 Posted: 01/22/06 - 09:59 Post subject: Odd discharge after c-section!? |
  |
|
| I am a 27 yr old female, I gave birth via c-section Jan. 11th to my second daughter. I am now experiencing a very odd discharge that is concerning me. It is a very thick, sticky gel like substance with blood mixed in. I know the blood is normal but what about the other? I did start cramping a bit previous to noticing the discharge. Also let it be known that I can't seem to get the discharge out completely. I know this seems gross but its almost like a string your trying to pull out. Any advice is greatly appreciated. This was my second c-section if that is of importance! |

Hello there! How are you feeling apart from being worried about the discharge? Congratulations on you second child!
I also had cesarean section when pregnant with my second child. My contractions started but I couldn’t go through with the labor, it just stopped. I had hard time recovering from cesarean, vaginal birth recovery was nothing compared to this one. How are you coping?
I also had both bleeding and the discharge, which was of course mixed with blood.
I talked to the midwife about it and she said this was normal because it is a process of uterine lining shed. I remember she told me that I should check any abnormal and heavy bleeding and a smell from the discharge. Otherwise, I should be fine.
Are you in pain now? I used to take pain meds for some time after the delivery. The incisions were killing me.
Anyway, take it easy and try to rest. That was the best advise I was given!
Best Regards
Jane |

| I had my csection on November 29th and this is happening to me now??? I stopped bleeding, thought I had my period last week and now all of a sudden I am cramping with the same stuff coming out. I'm not concerned because I am not heavy bleeding and I didn't have the brown, mucusy discharge I had with my last 2 c sections, but normally the bleeding and everything would be over by now. Maybe my body is taking a little longer. |
