First period AFTER baby
Is it normal to bleed a lot and more often for your first period after the baby was born?
Meaning i usually get mine for 3-4 max and i'm on day 8 here. Plus i feel like i'm just bleeding, not period bleeding. Does that make sense?

Re: First period AFTER baby
Yes, absolutely. Your body may be completely different from how it was pre-baby - but it could go back to the norm after a few AFs.

Re: First period AFTER baby
i almost asked for a transfusion the last few AF's after Lukie. I am on #4 and it is just finally starting to get a little better... except I am just spotting for like forever it seems (it's been 8 days of spotting AFTER AF ended). I have an appointment with my OB tomorrow to find outwhats normal and whats not.

Yes!! Mine have been lasting for about 8 days the last 3 months...hopefully I'll be back to normal soon, plus I'm on the pill which usually before I would only last 3/4 days.

Re: First period AFTER baby
AF was pure HELL after DS. A ton of blood and very painful. Thank God I'm preggo again!! I wonder how many more babies I'd have to have to never have another AF again
