STILL. BLEEDING. (slightly tmi)

i am 9 weeks and two days post partum. i am pretty sure that my "post partum bleeding" stopped right around 6 weeks (which is also the time i stopped breastfeeding).. my discharge was getting to a really light brown color and then BAM, i start what i am pretty sure is my period. there have been a couple of times where the bleeding will stop and i'll just have brown discharge and i think "yay! it's over!" and then (such as tonight), i will go to the bathroom and see a bunch of blood. it isn't profuse bleeding, but i would think that it would have stopped after three weeks! is this normal???

Did you get on amy BC? My period is like that and keeps starting then stopping then starting, im on Mirena...

I bled off and on like that for almost 2 months. My doctor said it's completely normally.

nope, no birth control, and i am not even going to see my OB for my post partum checkup until next week.

i hope so... i feel like my body is making up for the nice menstrual vacation i got during my pregnancy by giving me THE WORLD'S LONGEST PERIOD.
