Post partum period question..

Kate

I just got my first period 6 months post partum. I exclusively breastfeed. There is so much bright red blood I'm a little scared.. Full pads, and when I go pee it just pours out. I've never had heavy periods my whole life so this is kind of scary. Is that normal to have so much bright red blood with the post partum period? The cramping is constant but not that bad thankfully, just tonnnnns of blood.
