Shortly after the delivery of my second daughter, I suffered from a Post Partum Haemorrhage. I lost over 1000ml of blood and needed blood transfusions. My body was shutting down as I lay there bleeding. Fortunately I received the appropriate treetment and all turned out fine. We are pregnant with our third, and I believe there is a high chance that I will have a bleed such as this again. I would be really interested in hearing from anyone who has suffered a PPH and then gone on to deliver again!. My understanding is that as this has happened once I am at a higher risk of it happening again, they think it occurred because she ws delivered really quickly. Any experiences to share ????
