I just delivered my baby two weeks ago. is it ok to use tampons for just a day so i can swim?

Not recommended: Pelvic rest (nothing inserted in vagina) is usually recommended for 6 weeks after delivery in order to allow for healing and prevent post-partum infection.

Is it normal to have a two day period with brown colored blood the whole time? I had a full tampon both days. It was just brown instead of red.
Every time I have used a tampon, my period stops. A normally 6-7 day period will stop on day two, and there will be very little blood on the tampon.
My period had stopped and I had clean tampons for a day. But today, two days later, it started again with heavy bleeding and lots of clots.
