Hi Lisa,

First, congratulations on your baby! As for your question, bleeding after giving birth is common and usually lasts about 6 weeks and can continue to approximately 3 months. You said that the baby had to be turned before birth, so I am assuming you had a vaginal birth? Is that correct?

You also said on your post that you were borderline for a transfusion. Did you have postnatal hemorrhaging? If so, why did you have it? Was it because the baby was breached?

I would like to answer your questions, but could you please clarify your question?
