I had a elcs and bled for 6 weeks on and off afterwards and also had an infection to add to it. I got my 1st period after having baby a couple of days ago. Ds is 4 months old. Absolute Bloodbath. Leaking. Pain. Doubled over. Soaking a nighttime pad in 2 hours. Cannot even try to use a tampon as it is too uncomfortable. This did not happen after having dd or I am sure I would have recalled the horror. I can't stand up straight due to the cramping and it is impossible to look after the 2 children and do normal things...Is this normal?
