First PP Period or something else?

Sorry if TMI.

With the older kids I didn't get my period back until they were around a year, mainly because I was breastfeeding. I'm exclusively breastfeeding Dexter too but am wondering if the long stretches he's going for mean I'm getting it back sooner - the last couple of days I've had some very light spotting and a little crampiness. It's so light though, could hardly be called a period - like, it's only noticeable if I wipe, which combined with the fact it's so soon and I'm still breastfeeding him makes me wonder if it's a period at all or something else. And if something else, what could it be? Did anyone else have anything like this? All my first PP periods have been much heavier than this so it just seems a bit odd.

No, no changes at all - he's been quite happily feeding. I will be really pissed off if this is my period as that's one of the perks of breastfeeding!

But at least you get some sleep, right? Cara didn't sleep through the night until I weaned her at 3 1/2 years. Sounds like it might be AF coming soon.

Yeah, it is a small price to pay, just an annoying one!
