First period after having baby

Samantha

I just had my first baby 6 weeks ago. I was in labor 40 hours then and emergency c section. I did get a really bad infection from my water being broken to long if that makes a difference. My periods are usually 3 days. I'm on day 8 of this heavy period...is that normal and how long should it last at most? How long did it for you guys?
