First period after giving birth?

How long did your first period last after giving birth? Mine has been going on for two weeks now. I just made an appointment with my doctor, but they can't get me in for another two weeks. I was just curious to see if anyone else had an unusually long period.

ETA: You have an unusually long pregnancy though.

Mine was 14 days but only heavy for the first 5 or so.

Mine was super short and light.  I've just had my second one and it was heavier than normal and lasted 5 days.

Mine was 7 days, as opposed to my normal 3-4 days and MUCH heavier than usual.  They are still a bit longer than they used to be and a little heavier at the beginning than they used to be but at least not the full 7 days.

Mine was longer than normal, but not abnormally long - I think it was 7-8 days when it's usually 5 days.  The next month was back to normal.
