PP Period??

My LO is almost 2 months old.  I had PP bleeding up until about a week and a have ago ([TMI- light brownish discharge at the end]).  Saturday I started spotting and I've been spotting since then.  I usually get horrible cramps with my period, but I've felt fine so far. 

I am EBF.  I only pumped the first 10 days Matthew was in NICU. 

Could this be my period? 

Re: PP Period??

  • I read somewhere recently (maybe kellymom.com?) that any bleeding before 56 days PP is considered PP bleeding & not a period. I'm still having some bleeding on & off at 8 weeks, & my OB said it was totally normal to have it start & stop & not finish completely until 10 weeks or so. 

    Sucks, I'm over it.

    I read this in my Complete book of Breastfeeding. I had the same freak out. You could always call your OB and ask.
