Hi.My name is Nabil. Im 27. I just had my baby 3 months ago via c-section. I spotted for 6 weeks after surgery and completely stopped.Yesterday i had a thick brown mucus discharge when i wiped after going to restroom. I have minor cramps and i exclusively breastfeed. Is this normal and/or should i worry?

Hi,
While breast feeding there is lactation amenorrhea due to hormonal changes in those days. During this phase such bleeding and cramps are a normal episode. Please don't worry. Genital cleanliness needs to be observed this time.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
