Excessive vaginal bleeding?

I started bleeding about three weeks ago, with what I thought was my period (they are very irregular), it was very light then became moderate(most of my periods are moderate to heavy). It's been three weeks and the blood has gotten heavier, and It does not feel like a period, there is not cramping or odor or such.
I am going through a tampon and pad at least every two to three hours, with excessive blood clots, some that are very large, larger then I've ever had with a period.
Should I be concerned with this, I dont have health insurance right now and dont want to waste the money if it's not a big deal. But I have never bled like this, and i am worried about the blood loss, there is not pain or anything like that associated with it. I am 26 and had a baby by c-section 8 months ago.

Answers:
The first thing that comes to mind is maybe you've had a miscarriage and might be retaining some of the materials. You really need to be seen by a doctor.check your area for free clinics , or ask your local Health Department. They offer services for free or for very little.

I don't believe in taking a gamble with my health...I lost my mother because of that, so a hard lesson was learned.

I know that extra physical activity can sometimes causes the bleeding to increase dramatically..but I've always been told that if you are soaking a pad an hour, you need to be at the Dr. office.

Good luck, and take care of yourself.

PS: Don't be afraid to ask your family/friends for help and support. They will most likely step up and help reduce your stress level about this or make arrangements easier for you.
