So Molly is nine days old now!!! Its crazy how fast she's changing already!
I'm working on pics too! My friend sent me a few from the hospital, and I'm just figuring out how to put them online.

My doctor said to expect bleeding for up to 6 weeks, and he said it should only be bright red for up to ten days....well I'm on day 9, and its still bright red, and S.U.P.E.R. heavy. I have a doctor's appointment next Tues., but I was just wondering if anyone else had similar experiences?
Thanks!

<3 Sophie

Dont worry I had the same Awfull isnt it!! I had it for at least 2 weeks and then only it started to clear up but also lasted 7 weeks. I guess every woman is differant so dont worry too much!! Your doc will tell you if there is any problems but it should be fine... Hope it clears up soon though!! Good luck
