first period after birth question

I stopped bleeding/spotting completely at about 8 weeks PP and now, 2 weeks later, I have what seems like a very light period (I think) -- It started Thursday very light, got a little heavier and is now fading away again.

I'm not sure if it's my period or if I'm bleeding again (if that's even possible after so much time)

Has anyone had a light period at first? I've read it's normal for it to be very different that your usual cycle for the first few months, how the heck would I know if this is my period or not????Chat Icon

Re: first period after birth question

5 1/2 weeks PP I started lightly spotting on and off. I thought it was my PP bleeding making a come back.
Then 6 weeks to the DAY- WHAM full blown period. The worst period I ever had. Very heavy.

Since then I just start my period- no spotting first- but the first one I definitely spotted for quite a few days before it started- so yes, you could be starting your period that way
