Heavy Periods
Okay, last month I had my first post-partum period, and it was fairly light. Well, last night I started my second one, and it is REALLY heavy. I use a DivaCup, which normally has to be emptied 2ce a day -- well, since 2 pm I've had to empty it 4 times. Now, I used to have to change pads like every hour the first day, but once I switched to the DivaCup, it just meant every 3 or 4 hours the first day. This is consistently every 90 minutes now (third time since 5:30). I'm a bit worried about going to sleep tonight!! Should I sleep on towels or something?!??! I have a pad on too (thank goodness!!), but I'm just wondering if/when it is going to slow down for the night!!
