I had this at about 6 wks and thought it was AF but it wasn't... I think it just must have been lochia starting up again (even though that had stopped for about a week). Even had the period type pains too, but it wasn't

Ive been like this and i was at the doctors yesterday. He said its due to me having a c-section and the period pains are signs that everything is going back into place. He told me to keep an eye on the clots and if they appear bigger than a golf ball im to go back.

At exactly 28 days after my section I had a period. Full period pains etc as well. I went to the doctors to get it checked as I was fully breastfeeding as well but was re-assured it was just a period! Get it checked to be on the safe side if yor worried.
