Period after delivery
I have delivered baby on April 29th through csection.Bleeding stopped after 40 days but it was light. On 6th July I saw stretchy vaginal discharge same like fertile window. I got bleeding on 16th july with back pain and leg cramps and the flow is very heavy like changing pad every 3-4 hours. Today is 3rd day but it still heavy.
Is it period and also is heavy period normal after delivery?

Talk to experienced gynaecologist online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
Assuming you stopped bleeding after third week of may, this is a delayed cycle. Irregular bleeding and occasional bleeding more than 3 -4 pads / day in lactation period is common. However, there should be no pregnancy and needs further evaluation if more than 5 pads /day
