Okay time to figure out what's going on with my body, since Oliver was born, my cycle has been 33 days long, half a days warning with a light period, then about 3 days of EXTREMELY heavy (Super Plus tampon every hour) then spotting for a day before gone, NEVER had spotting mid cycle... can anyone give me any guidance on what's going on? Went to doctor 1st Feb and was meant to go for a scan as I was questioning how heavy my periods were but cause my period came the next day I decided to wait until before the next one but cash has been a bit tight since.

Not sure what's going on there. It could be hormonal and therefore can be helped with treatment, or it could just be the 'new normal' for you. In the last two years mine has changed a lot compared to what it used to be and it's just normal for me now kwim?
Sorry to answer your question with more questions but,
Have you done a pregnancy test?
Have you been to your GP to have your hormone levels tested?
As Trillian said, it could be the new norm for you. But if you're concerned you should definately go see your Dr. If you think you're bleeding that heavy you need to get an eye on your iron levels.
