Could The Brownish Spotting After Delivery Be Normal?
My baby is about 9weeks. I think I've started my period but it's a lot lighter than it used to be and it's a real dark brownish with a little red in it. I've had in protected sex but we used the pull out method. Is the bleeding normal or could I be pregnant again

Hello,
Brown spotting after delivery is completely normal and is just indicative of the discharge of old blood. There is nothing to be worried about.
