First period after child-birth?

Question

I am finally having my first period after child birth and it hurts. There is so much blood and its kinda scary. Is this normal? I have two other children, but it was not this bad after I had them. I am also feeling kinda light headed too...maybe I should go see my doctor.

Answer 1

You should definitely Call him right away!

Answer 2

Yeah, I agree. Check with your doctor. You're lightheaded from the blood loss. Go have yourself checked out to see that you're not hemorraging.

Answer 3

I would call your doctor immediately, there may be some tissue left over from the birth that is causing your heavy bleeding(usually described as going through a pad every hour)

Answer 4

Yes, see your doctor!!! That is too much blood if it is making you lightheaded. You may have some leftover tissue or a part of the placenta in your uterus still, causing an infection. I had the same thing happen to me after the birth of my 3rd child. I was in the hospital overnight.   Please get it checked out!

Answer 5

The first couple periods after giving birth are usually on the heavier side, however it wouldn't hurt to give your doctor a call!

Answer 6

Um...I advise you to go see a doctor. He / she will be able to help u with your problem.
