Period after pregnancy?

Ok this is strange one but just wondering if anyone else’s periods changed after being pregnant.

I didn’t get mine till 5 months after being pregnant as I breastfed but after 13 months off periods now when I’m due on period I get the biggest surge off hormones I feel anxious for 2-3 days before my period comes, I get extreme anxiety, my heart pounds non stop for days and literally don’t sleep a wink 🤦🏽‍♀️ and there only very short periods, like two days off bleeding whereas pre pregnancy I’d bleed for at least 4 days.

So sorry for the awful topic but has anyone suffered like this before there period starts?!

Yeah i get the same! My cycles have halfed also and they're more painful and heavier too! The doctor said this is normal.x

Mine went the other way! I had horrible periods before having DD, really painful and irregular. When they returned after DD they were painless and like clockwork.

So I don't think it's unusual for things to change after, but unfortunate if it's changed for the worse! Might be worth speaking to your GP about anyway and considering contraception that might stop or really reduce your periods?
