As the others have said that's normal - I had lots for about 4 weeks and then it just stopped completely

Like the others said, it's normal. I bled for 15-16 weeks, but that was because I got the DEPO shot 3 weeks PP.
But you do bleed just like any other lady after having LO, even if you had a section!
