Brief Answer:
It could be starting of your menses.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
This time bleeding is due to starting of her menses.
But if bleeding is more and for prolonged period of time, I will suggest that you get pelvic ultrasound to see everything is fine or not.
Sometimes after delivery bleeding could be due to hormonal imbalance also. Get your thyroid profile and HB also.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
