I stopped bleeding 4 weeks after birth. My 6 weeks was up Friday but I started back Bleeding Wednesday and it's extremely heavy... I'm running through pads like CRAZY idk what to do!
could be that olds blood so its either your period or you're back to postpartum
I have a doctors appointment in the morning for my 6 week check up. Hopefully it's just my period. But the blood was dark brown when it was starting @theirmommy20,
it may go the "normal"length which is 7 or if I'm not mistaken PP bleeding can happen for a good while
My normal period is only 3-4 days this might be forever with the way I'm bleeding @theirmommy20,
I don't know should be like a normal period. depends on your body
So how long is this period supposed to last???? @theirmommy20, @canaryv,
It might be your period, I stopped pp bleeding at 4 weeks and got my period at 7weeks1day. It wasn't super heavy at first but a few days in it got heavy. I just used tampons and pads to help keep flow under control
So my period lasted 8/9 days. It was pink and brown the first two days and then had two days of really heavy flow which was annoying but then I had a two or three days of mostly spotting. It'll be different for everyone but it'll take a couple of periods until your body balances back out. After my miscarriage last year it took 3 periods to get back to my "normal" so I'm assuming it'll be something similar now that I've had my son
