First period after postpartum

So I’m 5 almost 6 weeks pp and I stopped pp bleeding 2 weeks ago and I just got my first actual “period” after birth. Now this time I’m bleeding heavy. Not enough to soak a pad in an hour but maybe 2. And it’s super red. I’m only concerned because it’s a lot heavier than my pp bleeding. Is this normal? Or should I be worried?

I’ve had 2 periods so far exactly like that. Doctor told me it’s very normal, body is flushing and adjusting.

That’s how mine was too! Very normal!
