Post partum bleeding followed by mirena whilst on warfarin - when will it stop?

hallo.; i wondered if anyone had any experience of this.. i feel like my bleeding hasn't really stopped since the lochia. not sure that my period has come back since there wasn't a break .. i think i may have my period now, but i did have a mirena coil inserted last week and i'm on warfarin too for 3 months after birth as i had a dvt some years back.

the weird thing about the warfarin is that my INR clotting factor is not reaching target ie staying a bit too thick; yet the slightest graze bleeds a lot. i think the gp's measurings are wrong and i may be too anti-coagulated.. hence the constant bleeding..

here's the silly quesetion.. should periods return after a baby at the same point in month they appeared before baby? ie mine were end of month, but if this is it then i'm bleeding at the time when i used to ovulate..

!

sorry to waffle, getting myself confused! and fed up with using sanitary things!
