I’ve had period issues over the years (I spotted for YEARS) but this recent issue is really playing on my anxiety.

Since I had my little girl three years ago my periods have been super heavy every month. The first two days are terrible and I often have to get up during the night so I don’t bleed everywhere. Despite that, after the heavy passes the rest of my period is light and done by day 6 or 7. This month has been totally different. I had the usual heavy but then had days of heaviness on and off where I’m usually light. On day 8 I had spotting which isn’t common but has happened to me. But I’m now on day 9, still have spotting and now have really dark red light bleeding when I go to the loo. What gives? I’m freaking out over this as it is not normal for me.
