Aunt flow after birth

I know everyone is different, but I would still like to see if anyone has gone through similar.
I am now the proud IM to three beautiful babies, 4,18mths and 3w. When I had my first Aunt flow hung around for 8w, 6w with the second and now 3w with my third. Did anything have aunt stick around for such a short period? Don't get me wrong, I love the fact I'm nearly "normal" again, but it just seems odd. TIA beautiful ladies

Mine only lasted about 2 weeks. Are you breast feeding? Sometimes it will stop quicker if you are breast feeding?

I am breastfeeding, I did with the second as well. I was thinking that May have been what had helped, as the midwife had said even my "fundas" had gone back to normal after 4 days as well.

I had bleeding for 3 weeks after birth and I was breastfeeding too. The nurse said it's normal, everyone is different. My sister only bled for 2 weeks with her 3rd child and she wasn't breast feeding.

Thank you :) all I got told was to expect the pain side of things to be a little stronger, but I found it to be better then with the second, I needed panadine forte then, whereas I took panadol and not that much.
