I'm currently 8weeks pp and my period seem to be back. I'm currently doing a mixed feeding, more of bf. Is it possible to know if it's period or if my lo chia has resumed? My lochia kind of ended during my 3rd week pp. thanks.

What is the colour of your blood? Postpartum blood tend to start off red, turns dark brown and then there will be an instance when there will be white discharge observed. Also, observe the flow of your blood -- the flow of blood is heavier in postpartum bleeding (500-1000ml) than in menstruation (10-80ml). http://www.wikihow.com/Know-if-It's-Postpartum-Bleeding-or-a-Period

Mine is dark brown. Flow isn't a lot, more of spotting.
