I had my baby boy 8 weeks ago and I bled for about 5 weeks after which I started the combined contraceptive pill. I started to bleed lightly about a week ago (so on about day 14 of my pill packet) and now I am on my first 7 day break from taking it so really my first period and it is SO heavy. I am passing massive clots, soaking through maternity pads and just feel drained and awful with terrible cramps.. is this normal?

I would seek medical advice. This warrants further checking out.
