I am 10 weeks PP and I started my period a week ago and it’s my first one since having my daughter. The first few days was extremely heavy and it’s now calmed down but it keeps going from next to nothing so I think it’s coming to and end but then it gets slightly heavier again. How long did everyone’s first period last because I’m over it already and just wish it would end! I have also started the mini pill a week ago on the first day of my period too and I’m concerned that may be prolonging the bleeding as I’ve had issues before on contraception and I bled constant for 9 weeks!
