I had a CS. Heavier & painful with cramps. I'm not Bfing & on the pill (the same one I was taking before pregnancy).

Before it wasn't heavy at all , & with no pain.

Before having Roman i was regular, 28 days. Now im going 40 days. Driving me mad because when it hits the 28 days and im usually due my body and emotions are just all over the place.

Also my periods are heavier and more painful.

I've had two, both were really heavy and painful. Am on pill now so fingers crossed next one will be on time and a bit less unpleasant!
