Yes, normal: There is a significant degree of variation in the amount of bleeding a woman can have for her menses. 3 days total bleeding is fine. A range of 2-7 days would be considered "normal". This may change over the course of your reproductive years, especially after big events like childbirth or uterine surgery.

Flow: The quantity, duration and character of your flow is unique to you. Three days of flow is entirely normal. Rejoice in the fact that it is not longer or heavier.
