    ummm I cant remember that far back ..I dont think I had this although I am sure it must be normal . Have you had your 6week check up yet?. Perhaps ask at that or give your Dr a call as I am sure they would not mind.

    It's weird how fast you forget, but I vaguely remember getting all sorts of weird discharge afterwards... I do remember tho my Doctor saying that unless it had a vile odour, it is probably normal.

    I'd go with what Anna said...sounds like something a doctor would say!
    I'm pretty sure it's normal, but if it gets a lot heavier (or smells) then see your doctor.

    I remember the discharge getting a bit stringy. I think it's all part of the healing process.

    Like the others have said, see your Dr if it gets smelly.

    Hi Cass,

    Yes! I got this! I think mine lasted a couple of days and then I had a couple of days of "spotting" which was brown (like dried blood) which I posted about and lo and behold as soon as I posted about that it stopped too! ROFL.
    Like the others said, I wouldn't worry about it unless their is an odour.
