Can anyone please give advice on what to do about my period, my first one since i gave birth 11 months ago. I have been breastfeeding my son so didn't have any periods for quite a while, until recently as i'm starting to wean ds. my period started 24 days ago and it has been steady since then (light to medium) with no signs of stopping. I know my hormones are shot just now cos the mood swings are a joy!, but beginning to feel a bit drained after more than 3 weeks....
