I'm Currently Feeling: 



Heavy Period


Hey girls
So I'm having my 3rd period since angel was born. The first period was normal flow. 2nd period was slighty heavier. But this time around.. omg.
I was wearing a heavy flow pad last night and when I woke up I was soaked in blood. Sheets and blanket now have a nice blood spot.... sorry TMI..I just put a heavy flow pad on 20 mins ago and its already needing to be changed.

Anyone else had such a heavy flow period after a c section? It does worry me a little bit. I'm feeling a bit nauseous as well. Im not really having alot of cramping but all the blood bothers me.

Didn't have a c-section, but mine are REALLY heavy now. Think Wobbles and a few others mentioned theirs being quite heavy too. Dunno if it's just a usual thing after having baby? x

Well I had called my doctor to let her know that I just didn't feel right about it and i've never bled this much so they said to come in. She checked my uterus and said it's a big bigger than normal and had me take a pregnancy test just in case. They thought it sounded like a miscarriage but obviously it was negative (gotta have sex to get preggers) LOL
Got home and couldn't sleep because i've got cramping and a very sore back. Had the chills and a bit of a fever so I took a shower and i'm now feeling a bit more refreshed. Could be because of the knockoff tylenol 3's that I have.
So I don't know whats going on with me. If it continues all this weekend I have to go in on monday to take some hormones to calm it down.
I hope it doesn't last any longer

Had C-sections, but when my period came back it wasn't as heavy as you described. But each person is different.

Hope it improves for you hon!
