it can be normal for you to bleed for months after and maybe the increase is your period starting ontop of it

as long as your not soaking a pad an hour or having any other signs or anything more serious going on, such as temp with painfull cramps i wouldnt worry

its more or an inconvience then a real problem just keep an eye on it

I bled for 4.5 weeks and then at 6 weeks got my first period. Could it be that hun? IF it stops in 5 or so days I would say so!

well i have to change my pad every 2 hours coz its covered in blood! Also getin light cramps and my cheeks are all flustered x x

have you checked your temp? if your concerned its not right or feel worse then ask to see your GP

had your uterus shrunk back at the 6 weeks check? it would be unusual for it to be retained products at this stage but can happen and a sign would be that your uterus has not gone back under the pelvic bone
