    Hun, get it checked out - it sounds VERY heavy. After DD I went back to the hosp as my bleeding had all but stopped then suddenly started again and was heavier and also had cramping - It turned out it was a bit of retained placenta, I ended up passing it in clots, but they were talking of doing a D&C. I really hope it settles down for you soon hun xoxox

    My bleeding started up again with DS and it turned out it was an infection. It wasn't this heavy though, adn I had some big clots too. I'd also get it checked out

    Thanks girls, it seems to have slowed for the moment, but that could be because i was freezing my butt off outside for a few hours (dont ask) and ive had small clots today like i normally would when its slowing, but will see what tomorrow brings. Just seems weird to bleed more now than i did after Jack was born

    Yeah, keep your eye on it!!!! Did you usually get clots in AF before getting pg?
