Hi Scarlett, : Congratulations on your baby girl. You're describing something that is common after having a baby. Continue your birth control every day & usually your cycle will stabilize by 2-3 months. Two weeks of spotting is normal; 2 weeks of heavy bleeding with clots, dizziness, and/or weakness should be evaluated by your ob. Continue your prenatal vitamins if you have any left & good luck with your baby.
