period after postpartum bleeding help

[willashl942]

How long after your postpartum bleeding did you begin your period?
I'm 5 weeks postpartum and thought  I was almost finished, light spotting and looked like it was almost done, a few days ago I started bleeding again a bit more, and it reminds me of my period, just not as heavy! Should I be worried? Its been like this for 5 days now and no sign of "slowing down" please help!!!

I always get my period right away. Even though I nurse full time. You can always call your doctor if it's concerning you.

I tend to have postpartum bleeding for 6 weeks and then a period about 3-4 weeks later.
