1st pp AF freakin' sucks!!!!!!! How many days did it last?

kirbabe · May 2009

Everytime I think she's going to let up and I can get a reprieve of "refreshing" myself every hour, nope, dead wrong! If you had a super heavy period, how many days of power bleeding did you have and how many additional light days? Also, what did you do at night? I probably shouldn't be admitting this, but I don't care, I put 3 pads in my underwear and then I used one of my son's disposable diapers outside my underwear, I even velcroed it to my underwear in the back and then put on my pajama pants to help hold it in place too. I leaked through my underwear, but it worked to save my pajamas and my bed.

Ok, now that I've typed it out, maybe I do care a bit, I'm a little embarrassed. . .but whatever. . .it worked. I'll probably do it again tonight, too. Unless someone else has some better ideas.

I had 1st pp AF at 6wks pp and it lasted for 11 days! Mostly heavy/medium for at least 9 of those days. Hang in there, hopefully it lets up for you soon.

I just had mine on May 2nd and it lasted a whole week and was really really heavy! No cramps though, just lot of bleeding. I am surious to see what this one will be like, if she even comes this month.
