I quit breastfeeding around september and had started normal period at the end of Nov., had another normal one in Dec., but then a very funny one in Jan. I just got odd spotting (bright red) for a day last week for a day, and for three days I'm having brown yellow discharge. I have lots of cramping and it smells quite bad like the ones you get after giving birth...?? Anyone has any idea what it could be?

It sounds like a trip to the docs, for you! Anything emanating from the ladygarden which "smells quite bad" is in need of medical investigation. Good luck!

Oh, but it might be something to do with hormonal imbalances if you've stopped BF. Also, if you're within 6 months of giving birth, could it be an infection?
