I bled for about a week and a half.
No cramping UNLESS I over did it. Then 1-2 days of "I've just been gutted" cramps. Situps were a bad idea. So was fetching my mail one day (but not the day prior). Standing for long periods was to be avoided the entire first week. So was getting in and out of cars. It's kind of wacky. Once I figured out the motions that were no-no's it was easy to avoid them, but the WEIRDEST motions were no-no's. Like holding onto a pole and swinging my way around it (the fetching the mail oops).
If you have any kind of fever, or if something just feels 'off', or if it lasts longer than 2 weeks it's time to go back in as part of the placenta may have been left or your hormones may be wonky and need a bit of help evening out.
If you're EVER in doubt, ring the 24/7 nurses line through your hospital for immediate medical advice without the commitment of actually heading to the doctors. They'll ask a bunch of questions, sift through symtoms, and tell you to treat at home, make an appt w/ your doctor, head to urgent care, or head to the ER based off of those symtoms. LOVELY invention, the 24/7 nurse advice line.
