| Mum (Mom)  Join Date: Feb 2008 Location: New England, USA Posts: 11,326 | Postpartum AF After giving birth, did AF become better, worse, or stayed the same for you? Cause before I got pregnant I was blessed with the most perfect  .Zero pain, light flow, short duration (5 days max) and on the dot every 28 days. Now after I gave birth they are horrible!  Heavy, crampy, the first two days of it I'm white as a ghost! And it last longer and comes on every 26 days! I thought it will get better now that I'm on birth control but still nothing!  Am I alone in AF hell? xxxx |

Then when I had Alfie OMG they are the worst I could ever imagine - heavy is an understatement I am also on for around 7 days too.I am hoping this LO will put me back to a light flow and a few days long. x |
