Default Mirena, Bleeding, Clots, Yaz?

I have a few experiences that I want to check out. I know I'm not really postpartum, but all these have to do with having a baby so I'm posting here.

Anyway, I had Mirena inserted on Dec. 2nd, so just over a month ago. Devon is now 4 months old, and I'm bleeding like heck. It's obviously not from birth. I started bleeding the day I had Mirena put in, and it hasn't gotten better. (Hasn't gotten worse, though.) It's like a mad period, all the time. I soak tampons all day, every day. And yes, I use tampons, and yes I'm going to stick with them! ;P Also, about two weeks ago, I passed a couple of blood clots. I had a ton of clots during/after birth, but I'm concerned about passing them so randomly. Is Mirena known for clots? And when did you all stop bleeding, if you have Mirena?

I'm considering getting it taken out and getting Yaz. My sister in law loves Yaz, and I know it's a Lo birth control. But I got pregnant with Alex when I was on Ortho Lo, so that worries me! But I'm sure that was just a fluke.

Any thoughts? Advice? Stories? Thanks!!!
