Looking for some advice please ladies. I had my 2nd dc 10 months & my periods started again after about 3 or 4 months. I never tracked them before but they seemed fairly regular - roughly once a month, 5 days on, 1st 2 days really heavy with cramps then lighter for the next 2, day 5 is barely there. Since having dc2 I started to track them & the first 5 followed exactly this pattern but this last one is completely differently. I was roughly 1 week late, then it started & never stopped! Currently on day 17, have had no cramps (not complaining about that) & seems to be no pattern. Some days it's light (& light brown in colour) so I think it's finally starting to end but then the next day it's heavier & bright red. I feel like it's never going to end. Also (& apologies if tmi) the consistency is different. There has been several days of a very dark brown snotty type of blood. I was 40 this year & when it was late i wondered if it could be the menopause? But now it won't stop. Is it even a period or something else. I feel fine in myself it's just annoying me. Any ideas or similar experience's? Thanks
