Hi,
While such a feeling may be normal, but as you said you had significant bleeding, fast heart rate and sick feeling may be signs of low blood ( low haemoglobin).
Some times there may be some infection. So I would personally advise your should see your doctor for proper assessment and management.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
