    my first period (was bf so didn't get this til ds was 5.5months) was much much heavier than pre pregnancy (and all those since have been lighter than that but still heavier and more painful than pre preg) , but not as heavy as urs sounds. how long is since u had ur section? is the bleeding bright red? i wld say possibly phone ur hv/mw/gp just to make sure its not some dodgy post partum bleeding. hth xx
