First post-partum period?

[Alexas Mommy]

Hey everyone!

I think I had my first post-partum period (LO is now 13.5 months old and we are still bfing) just over two weeks ago I had cramping and serious mood swings and ewcm, and I just knew my body was unfortunately reentering it's fertile stage, well, 4 days ago I had a very tiny bit of bleeding followed by a couple days of very light spotting, and now I am back to nothing at all.
Is it normal to have such a light period? (I didn't have to wear a pad, just a lightdays pantiliner did the trick!) I don't remember this from my oldest!

TIA!

As far as I know it is normal. I have had really light periods since my 2nd one after Riya was born. Mine seem to last either a couple of days or a week and a half. It is really irregular for me. My first and second PP period were horrible though. I could not leave the house there was so much bleeding.

Mine have been completely random this time. I had one day of spotting at 7 months PP, then another 2 days of spotting 3 weeks later, then nothing at all for 2 months, and then from December I've had regular periods but lighter than I've ever had before. With my eldest, they came back like clockwork from 6 months, same as pre pregnancy.

First time around my periods were awful. They had always been bad, but after my first baby I had to use super, doper strength tampons etc. So mine got worse, not better.

At 9.5months pp she hasn't appeared yet and I'm hoping she stays away. I made it to 10months last time!
