Brown blood 2 weeks pp?

Hi so I’m about 2.5 weeks pp and have just had clear discharge since about day 5 pp but today I’ve started bleeding again and it’s dark brown and came out in a couple of gushes

Could this be my first period or should I be worried? No clots yet but just put some maternity pants on and I can feel it trickling as I’m sat here writing this 😬 too early to tell if it’ll slow down or soak through a pad in an hour yet

I’ve rang 111 and they’re supposed to be ringing me back but haven’t yet - the bleeding has definitely slowed down thankfully so panic (mostly) over but I’m still very intrigued if it’s lochia or period or something else seeing as I’ve not had a drop of blood in about 2 weeks, just discharge 🤷🏻‍♀️

I've been bleeding for 7 weeks now and occasionally it would go from clear to dark brown and back. Then I tailed straight into my period where it went from dark brown to bright red again with period smell and consistency.

Is this normal?

Is this little red bit on my section scar normal? It’s not oozing anything, doesn’t hurt but it’s the only bit on my scar like it so just curious! (19 days PP)
Thank you in advance! 🥰

Help

I was getting pretty painful period cramps and during those, I had painful lower back cramps. I had these on and off for like a few hours so from about 10:30pm to 1am?

I’ve had no show, or anything like that.

Is this braxton hicks or early labour pains?

Fed up

Anyone else just feeling fed up in general? I just never feel happy anymore. Wake up dreading what the day ahead of us will be like.
Little one will be 6 week tomorrow

Anyone else felt like this?

Hi, I’m 4 months postpartum, little one sleeps through the night and is formula fed, the last week I’ve felt extremely tired and very hungry! Just wondered if anyone else has felt this way/experienced this?

Early waters/pre term labour?

I can’t get checked until later today unfortunately. I can’t tell if I’m leaking/starting early. I definitely think I’m having braxton hicks yesterday and today.. i have some pain in my back but she is quite low down so hoping it’s just pressure, baby was a little quieter yesterday but she’s back to more normal movements today, but my underwear just seems to get so wet, especially after going to the bathroom. And I honestly can’t work out the smell, I’m pretty sure it’s just discharge/urine leaking but there’s that worry in my mind a little. Are there any other ways to know/check if it could be the start of it all?
