Any bf'ers get a pp period?

I know that most do not, but I think I might have my period.  My pp bleeding had slowed way down and was dark in color and would only leave a couple marks in a panty liner...but then yesterday I had red blood, no cramps or any other period symptoms, and today I'm having red blood too.  Not a lot, but I'm 5 weeks pp so I'm wondering if its a period, or just more pp blood thats just now deciding to show up?  (I had a C-Section).

    I think it's still PP bleeding.  It can start and stop.  I'm almost 5 weeks pp and mine has been red the whole time and I'm still bleeding.  My doc says it's normal.

    Hate to scare you but I am 10 weeks pp and I am still bleeding. OB says to think about it in these terms - your body has gone through a trauma and needs time to heal. Everyone heals differently.

    With that said, I am dying for the bleeding to stop. It isn't heavy anymore just spotting throughout the day

    Hard to say.  I EBF and my first pp AF was when DD was 6.5 months and it was HEAVY with no cramps.

    I stopped bleeding at 3 weeks PP and just started again yesterday.  I have no idea if it's more PP bleeding or a period, but it's especially annoying because I have my 6 week follow up tomorrow.
