Talk to Dr: At 5 weeks there is some concern with bad cramps & nausea & overall feeling badly, so definitely contact your Dr who did the C-section. An infection (usually have fever but not always) is possible, or some retained placental tissue causing recurrent bleeding. You may need a repeat examination & possible ultrasound & other testing to be sure
