Ftm here, I gave birth to my ds on May 23rd - he's 8 weeks tomorrow. My pp bleeding came to a stop around 3 weeks and dp and I had sex for the first time around 4 week pp. Despite exclusively breastfeeding my son, my period returned at 6 weeks pp (was normal, lasted around 4 days). Tmi but today I just noticed some pink / brown when I wiped. Dp and I have had sex several times but have been very careful to use a condom every time! Is that normal/could it just be some more lochia or something?

There are 101 reasons for a bit of bleeding 8 weeks post partum. If you had af two weeks ago it could even be ovulation bleeding.

All that said, the only way to know if you're pregnant is to take a test (but my vote is for highly unlikely given af two weeks ago!).

I had odd bleeding for months after having my daughter especially when my periods returned. I went to the doctors about it they gave me a smear/swabs & everything came back normal, wasn't pregnant obviously. It's normal... you can probably expect a bit more, odd - but normal. It's just left over tissue/blood that hadn't been able to come out until now.
