I had a baby 4 months ago. Yesterday I started my menstrual cycle again for the first time since before the pregnancy.

I am concerned because the bleeding is extremely heavy. I have been needing to change out tampons at least once an hour for about 8 hours now, with it slowing down briefly once durring the day but picking right back up again. The only symptom that I am noticing is bad cramps. I am feeling a little faint but that could just be caused by my anxiety/panic disorder and not by the bleeding…

Is it normal to have very heavy periods the first time after pregnancy ends?

My question is whether or not I should rush my self off to the ER or wait and schedule an appointment w/ my doctor in the morning.
