Postpartum Vaginal discharge

I gave birth November 16th to baby number 4. I had some clots at the hospital that they gave me a shot of methergine and later also gave me 3 pills of methergine to help. It seemed to be working and on Thanksgiving night I had another blood clot the size of a lemon or small orange. Went to the ER to check on the blood clot and they ran test and gave me 3 more pills of methergine and suppose to follow up with my ob doctor on Monday. I have no heavy bleeding, but don't know what the color of my bleeding should be by now. I'm confuse with all the articles that say that my bleeding should look more white or yellow by 10 days. My bleeding is still red and I'm on 12 days. How red I don't know. I can't tell if it is bright red or pink? Should I worry?
