First postpartum period resumed at 9 months since i breastfed. since then, my periods are bright red, not clots, medium flow, every 28 days. ok?

They are back: Your periods have resumed and for the first few months may take on the bright red color as the lining of the womb is doing post baby/breast feeding 'housecleaning'.
