Period - Very heavy!


I had 6 weeks bleeding
spotting
a possible period
spotting

NOW - Well oh boy!! I am VERY very heavy! & its been like that for 3 days now I can't even wear a tampax as it feels like its falling out in an hour tops because my blood loss is THAT heavy! I am soaking pads to the max in no time at all.

Is this normal? I am feeling very weak!

Mine have been heavy my entire life, one reason I enjoyed being on the pill so much. I'd go through two packs of pads every month!! Sometimes 2 1/2. Not looking forward to what will happen after the baby is born.

After having jamie i had a couple of light periods( i say periods im not sure if they were proper periods or more just light spotting from the birth if that makes sence!!!) then they got really heavy and continued like that until i went back on the pill, going on the pill really helped and wasnt as heavy bleeding after that.
