First Period Smells Awful(9 wks PP)

St

Hi ladies!

So I am 9 weeks postpartum and started my first period PP. This is super embarrassing, but my period smells horrendous! It smells like a dead animal mixed with poop. The smell is so strong I can smell it through my clothes. The blood is almost a consistent bright red. I'm now 4 days into my period. I'm experiencing extremely mild cramps, I barely notice them.

Before my period (8 w PP) my vagina didn't smell like this.

Anyone else experiencing a terrible smell?
