FTM here, so I am 7 weeks post partum and my periods have returned but it’s soooo heavy. I’ve never lost this much blood before? Is it normal to have heavier periods ?

I don’t know if this might sound crazy but anyone have cravings or super hungry but it’s almost like everything kinda make you sick by thinking about it or by smell .

Does anyone have pelvic pain and hip pain that makes it super uncomfortable

I’ve just been to the loo, when I’ve wiped there’s pastel red blood on the tissue, like blood mixed with discharge colour (sorry, TMI), but only when I wipe - anyone else had this? Also did a Pregnancy Test (again!) and had what I think is a dye stealer??

For the last few weeks my bleeding has been light yellow and dying down but suddenly today I’ve started bleeding fresh bright red blood again. Could be my period but I’m breastfeeding and not had any other period symptoms so I doubt it. It’s not a massive amount so I’m not super concerned but has anyone else experie...

How is everyone doing? I’m completely overwhelmed! Currently 30 weeks pregnant and the fatigue has come back with a vengeance! I work full time, have a hyperactive 2 year old and a house to run.
