*TMI* What was your FIRST postpartum period like?

Question

Oh my word.. This morning i wiped after using the bathroom and it was like a baby pink, but in the toilet a few drops of blood. 
So i go to the bathroom again later on and their is only 2 clots in the toilet and baby pink when i wipe, but nothing on my pad. 
Totally different then my periods in the past.

Answer

My first one was pretty heavy and had clots but I had a c section too.

Answer

I just had mine 2 weeks ago and holy hell, it was like a crime scene! Super heavy and the most I have ever bled before. Also went on like that for almost 6 days!

Answer

I didn't have any clots but I used tampons so who knows. But I was using the most absorbent tampon and still changing it every 2 or 3 hours. My second period was much lighter though

Answer

I felt so lousy with my first after giving birth to my son

Answer

I’m on week three of my first period and it sucks. It was normal, then super light, then super heavy (like I had just delivered), then nothing for a day, then normal, and now light. So annoyed with it since I bled postpartum for 11 weeks and this started at 15 weeks.

Answer

Before pregnancy my periods were EXTREMELY heavy. Filling up my cup and bleeding through a pad within 1.5hrs heavy. Always been told it wasn’t a concern, I just needed more iron. I’m EBF and yet I got my first pp period at 4 weeks. It was heavy, but not like it was before and I dealt with a lot of clots which I didn’t have before. I had a vaginal delivery. It lasted 5 days for me and I’m still having some brown/old blood discharge about a week and a half later.
