A member asked:
My first actual period since having a baby has been heavy and lasted for 2 weeks than it returned few days later. but i have no cramps at all! could it be a miscarriage that i didnt know about or just irregular period due to breastfeeding?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
After having a baby, it takes a long time - up to a year - before your body is close to it's prior state. Periods can be irregular whether or not you are breastfeeding, even just because of the upheaval of having a new member of the family. Very unlikely this was a miscarriage.
