After a CS I bled for 3 weeks with the lochia gradually changing colour from bright red to "goo" (sorry ). About 4 weeks after CS, I had a 4 day bleed with small clots and red / reddish brown. I assumed this was the return of normal periods and marked down on the calendar.
Previous to DD, I was a regular 28 day cycle bleeding for 4-5 days, relatively light.
About a week after the end of my "period" & started the mini-pill again, DH and I "done the deed" (2nd time since DD). The following morning, I had started bleeding - absolutely BRIGHT red blood and lots of it (compared to a usual period for me) - and its still going 4 days later - same amount and colour. I'm soaking through pads and tampons in a couple of hours.
Is this normal? I don't want to go to GP only to be told it's a period - how embarrasing would that be?! I feel fine - just starting to get concerned about the amount I've blood I'm losing.
Any advice would be gratefully received. TIA
