A member asked:
Is a very heavy period normal after a c section? i am 8 weeks postpartum. i also had some bleeding before my period started. blood is bright red.

Probably normal: The first few periods after delivery can be heavier than usual. Have you had your postpartum visit yet? if that was normal, things are probably ok
