Hey this happened to me. On off bleeding for about 6 weeks. I felt really misled as my HV said my bleeding would lighter as I would have been cleared out well in surgery. I kept getting gushes and would get quite dizzy. Breastfeeding can also bring the bleeding on as it stimulates The uterus. Eventually it settled but I had to wear a pad just in case for about 2 months

My bleeding was defo stop start and would be worse when I'd done a lot of walking so maybe you've just done a bit more? Also I bottle fed but my first period was only 6 weeks after my bleeding stopped so they can come back soon but yours does seem a bit soon. It'll probably settle back down again after a rest xx
