So, I gave birth to my daughter 7 weeks ago and about 4 days ago i started my 'period' or what i believe to be my period. It started of normal, but by day two it got heavier and yesterday was really heavy. The thing is that it is heavy from about 8am when I get up to feed her in the morning then around noon gets really heavy and then slowly gets lighter as the day goes on. It is bright red and had clots in it. Yesterday the clots were a little bigger then the size of a quarter, but are now are way smaller. Im a little concerned. Also after delivery my uterus wasnt contracting so they had to give me three different shots to make it stop. Im not sure if that can have anything to do with it.

You may want to get it checked outif the clots are that big, it may be a miscarriage or something else
