This sounds like how my first af after mc was. I think it was heavy for 2-3 days and then went back to normal. The following few periods I had more cramps than usual, but they def weren’t as heavy as that first one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-post-loss-af#post-2785875 Sun, 12 Nov 2017 16:18:13 +0000 LindsayInNY 2785875@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bhbee: Oh eff that. Seriously?!? I'd almost rather lighter but cramps than this heavy and no cramps. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-post-loss-af#post-2785872 Sun, 12 Nov 2017 16:10:46 +0000 LindsayInNY 2785872@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Champagne: Yeah. Ultra is more absorbent than super plus. I have to order through Amazon because stores usually don't carry them. 😬 It's just been today so far but ugh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-post-loss-af#post-2785871 Sun, 12 Nov 2017 16:07:12 +0000 bhbee 2785871@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes mine were so heavy for a few months and painful. I was wearing the biggest size tampon i could find and a pad and still bleeding on my pants :bummed: but also only about 2 days that heavy each month </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-post-loss-af#post-2785867 Sun, 12 Nov 2017 15:53:30 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 2785867@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LindsayInNY: normal for me, both times. I didn't know there was an ultra sized tampon?! Honestly I forgot about super plus tampons too and was going through super ones hourly at least. If it stays that bad I would call your doc but mine was only that heavy for 1-2 days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-post-loss-af#post-2785865 Sun, 12 Nov 2017 15:41:11 +0000 MamaCate 2785865@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LindsayInNY: I am sorry about your loss. Mint was definitely heavier than normal and lasted a day or two longer than normal but then it was over and my cycle was back to its old pattern. Hope yours improves soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-post-loss-af#post-2785863 Sun, 12 Nov 2017 15:37:14 +0000 agold 2785863@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hope its normal or that things return to normal for you soon. :bummed: :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-post-loss-af#post-2785842 Sun, 12 Nov 2017 12:42:46 +0000 LindsayInNY 2785842@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What should I expect?</p> <p>Started spotting last week, Friday and Saturday were medium flow. No biggie. Today? I woke at 7am and am on my 3rd Ultra tampon already. Ultra as in bigger than Super Plus. They're not even lasting 2 hours. No cramps or anything. Is this normal?? </p>
