Bleeding at 4.5 weeks post partum

Hi mummies, I stopped bleeding around 3.5-4 weeks pp but now it’s back again at 4.5 weeks. It’s bright red very similar to menses type of bleeding. I am exclusively pumping BM for my LO since day 1. Is it possible I’m experiencing my first period pp? It’s too soon!?

Ya i am already more than 2 mths already. Comes and go! So i am confused.. i have an apptment wif my gynae this sat but i hope i can rmb to ask 😅

Lochia bleeding usually comes and goes, some until 6-8 weeks so it's still highly possible that the bleeding is your lochia not your period.

Hey Mama, it’s quite possible you’re having your first period. Best to consult your gynae regarding your concerns.

Thanks Lena. My appointment with the gynae is not for another 3 weeks so I’ll drop her a line in the interim.
