What Causes Vaginal Spotting During Lactation Period?

I had a baby six months ago and once the loggia stopped a few weeks later I began to have spotting. Sometimes it will be days in a row, other times it will skip a few. I haven t had my regular period yet since I m breastfeeding. This is my second birth (a VBAC) and I didn t have this the first time around. Is this normal?

Hello.

Yes it is normal, nothing to worry about. Your cycle and spotting should all regularize in a few weeks time. Once you stop breastfeeding and you still continue to have the discharge then report to your doctor. For now, nothing to worry about.

Best wishes
