On the pill after childbirth

Hi , not sure where to post this topic.
Can't get a DRs appointment til Thursday but someone here might have experience.
I had my first baby 10 weeks ago, went back on Cilest after my 6 week check up. Unexpectedly I have a heavy period right in the middle of the strip of pills ( ie not on the 7 day break). I can't see anything in the leaflet about this. I've been on the pill before but never had a baby before so I'm assuming this is just my cycle trying to get back to normal? My lochia
went on for the full 6 weeks and I think this is my first proper period since.

Has this happened to anybody else?
