Why Does One Lose Blood Post A C-section?

My daughter-in-law had a C-section a week ago she is not bleeding for one & her feet ,hands & she is extremely pale .They was going to give her a transfusion cause she lost a lot of blood.She said she was fine so they didn t give her none. At her first visit they said she was low on blood go home & drink fluids. I feel something isn t right.

Hi, thanks for writing,..
Though she is not bleeding after CS , she might have lost blood in the process of CS. That is why may they have advised to have blood transfusion. Get a repeat Hb. If HB<8, it is advisable to get a blood transfusion otherwise take iron tablet and food rich in iron. hope I have answered your query. Good day
