What was your first period like postpartum?

Question

I had some extremely light bleeding and I’m 6 weeks postpartum. It’s gotten a bit heavier but then stops and then goes back to being really light. Is this my period? I haven’t had any cramping or anything. And I haven’t had a period in over 3 years lol so I forgot what it’s like

Answer

It was horrible. I thought I’m bleeding to death 😂 I’ve stained every underwear I wore for a week, every bedsheet and every surface I sat on. Obviously, I wasn’t able to go out of the house. As soon as I sat up and tried to walk I felt it dripping. Looking back, I think it’s funny but it really wasn’t back then

Answer

Mine wasn’t as bad as I expected to be honest, just like a normal one from before I had baby, I had heard horror stories from people and expected the worst, everyone’s different! 😊😊
