Period after stopping breastfeeding

Hello,

I stopped breastfeeding my 5 month old around 3 weeks ago and over the last few days I’ve had bloating, dull aches in my uterus/ovary area, intestine pain and increased need to sit on the toilet for a number two (sorry tmi!) But, no bleeding?!

Could this be things rejigging after stopping breastfeeding? This is also my second caesarean so not sure if it makes any difference. It just feels as though I should be bleeding just now if you know what I mean?

All advice is welcome, TIA 😊

Everything can take a while to settle back down.

I had a couple of ghost periods when my fertility was returning.

Kellymom explains the transition to fertility quite well in this srticle.
