My period arrived yesterday and was just as it normally is. However, since I woke up this morning it has been really heavy, soaking through a pad every hour or so and every time I stand up I pass huge clots (some 5cm plus) I'm not too crampy but feel a little faint. I think the blood loss has lessened slightly but not the clots. I've never had one like this before!
Dh is getting panicky and making me a bit worried. We are on holiday 400 miles from home so can't ring the doc and not sure if I really need to anyway...
Any advice or reassurance would be greatly appreciated.
