I think I’ve just got my period after my c-section at 5 weeks post-partum. Mine is really heavy too but pre-pregnancy it was pretty light. I’ve also been wondering if it’s normal x

Im 10 weeks pp and think ive had 2 periods now. Mine have been really heavy to the point its worried me 😬 I did mention it to my doctor at the 6 week check and he didnt seems bothered by it.

The heaviness lasted about 2 days (on and off) Whole period was my usual 5/6 days. My period pattern is still the same but just passing so much more blood then normal.
