11 weeks postpartum cramping and spotting

So I am 11 weeks postpartum I was bleeding until week 6. I had some spotting and cramping then had my first period about week 9 that lasted just under a week. I am now spotting and cramping again, I never had this after my first pregnancy. I am seeing the gp on Monday but I’m quite worried that there’s something wrong. Do you think it’s normal? I think my body might be still trying to settle into a normal cycle but my catastrophic thinking makes me think it could be something more.

Still no period and still spotting every other week. I phoned my gp who said to phone back in a few months if it’s still the same.

@Meejee
I finished my period a little over a week ago and I'm now spotting just very lightly, I am also 11 weeks PP.
Don't know whether to ring or see how it goes.

Just a quick update since I’ve not been on here in a while. The spotting stopped around January and I have been having regular periods since.
