What Causes Random Bleeding?

Hi, I had a baby 6 months ago and only got my first period after my baby's birth a month ago (I had breast fed for a month and have a history of irregular periods). This period was very heavy and with clots etc and lasted for at least 2 weeks (I had to take some drugs to reduce the flow etc). I have done 2 pregnancy tests in the last month, both negative. My problem is that on a few occasions over the past couple of weeks I have had some mild bright red bleeding, followed by brown discharge. (I should say that I had a LLETZ procedure done 5 weeks ago and so put a lot of the problems down to this but the blood and discharge seems to be coming from my vagina, especially since my family doctor examined me a few weeks ago around the time of my heavy period and said that the blood was coming from the os). I am not really sure what is going on- my family doctor said that she has seen lots of different things after a woman has had a baby but it just seems never ending! That every time I think things are improving I get a little more blood. Obviously I haven't had my next period yet. My hisband and I would also like to try for another baby but my cycle is up the left which is very frustrating! Any input and help you could give me would be very much appreciated! Thank you! Best wishes, Mary
