Period after Delivery

2024-11-11 05:23:48
Hi, my postpartum bleeding stopped in 4th week after delivery but in 6th week I again started regular bleeding which is increasing in nature and bright red just like normal period. Is that my 1st period after delivery? Even if I breastfeed 7-8 times daily, can my period resume in 6th week postpartum? Is this normal or not?
