First period after birth

So I just started my first period since I gave birth (April 14) on the 15th of this month and it has been so heavy I have been going through a tampon within 2 hours of changing it. I like need a tampon and a pad and even then I bleed out. I was wondering if this is normal for being the first period since birth.
