My Daughter is 9.5 wks old, and I bled until about a week ago, and experienced lots of "gushing" sensations during that time, never enough to totally fill a pad, but was a weird feeling. Didn't matter if I was sitting or standing...just happened often.

Saw my gp last week, she wasn't too concerned, asked if I had any nausea etc which I don't. As bleeding had then stopped, she thought everything was okay.

Anyway, she gave me the Mini Pill at my request, and I only took it twice as it gave me instant mood swings (horrible!) and stopped.. anyway I am now bleeding again, quite heavily, with mild period pain..

I am fully breastfeeding.

So is this bleed a period because of the pill or still my loss, in which case I am beginning to wonder if I have some retained placenta, which would explain my gushing.. (having more gushing again with this bleed.)

(have called my GP's clinic, they are getting her to call me back asap when she comes in in the morning.

Thanks in advance.
