Period is super heavy when I wake up..?

I got my 2nd period yesterday morning, and it was pretty average as my 1st period. It was super heavy when I woke up!! I hadn't leaked that much in my pad, but when I peed, A TON of blood came out. Is it normal, since then gravity was working? Help! I'm going camping tonight!

    it doesn't mean your period was any heavier, it means that the blood that pooled in your vagina all night that couldn't get out while you were laying down came out when you got up and sat on the toilet. yes it is normal.

    You are right, it is gravity at it's best. You are lying down through the night, you get up and everything gushes out ! If you know this will happen, you may want to get super overnight pads or just use 2 regular pads to help catch the gush.
