Postpartum Hemorrhage?
By butterfly227 2 Months, 3 Weeks Ago
Has anyone ever experienced Postpartum Hemorrhage and if so, what caused it and how was the bleeding stopped?
My Dr. is afraid of this happening to me because Ive had a lot of babies. My last two births were very scary because I did bleed a lot and almost had to have a blood transfusion with one. After each delivery the placenta was hard to come out and it took about 45 mins to get it delivered.
Has anyone had seven or more babies?
Thank you for any advise or info you may have.

I did bleed alot right after birth it was just a blood clot (which can be dangerous) so all the doc did was pop the clot And everything was fine. And this was my first. But I did lose alot of blood and was very anemic so I had to take Iron pills

i got a clot to and yes they are very scary i nearly bled out before they discoverd that it was a clot but they found it and they pulled it out (they couldnt pop it because it was 200grams)but everything was fine after that i had to take iron pills and have a checkup every 3weeks till the post birth bleeding stopped!!!!!

after my 2nd baby was born he had fluid in his lungs and was very stressed after the birth, so they took him to an isolette, so needless to say i didnt get the chance to put him straight to the breast which helps stimulate ur uterus into contracting, at the time i was feeling edgy and wanted my babe so i walked to the nursery as i was standing there i started to heamorrhage and was taken by wheelchair to my bed . silly me, i got up and went for a shower only to pass a clot the size of my placenta.. a midwife and doc came to the rescue they layed me down and while the midwife massaged my uterus from the outside the doctor (( this is kinda gross sorry)) put her hand inside me to scoop out all th blood and clots, all after 12 hrs of drug free birth.... but today i have a perfectly healthy 5 yo and im no worse for wear.....
im not on my 7th, but i am on my 4th,
