Mini pill

So I'm 4 months pp and started the mini pill at 8 weeks pp due to very heavy bleeding.
I had spotting near every day and heavy periods for two months! However I am now 9 days late on my period and have had no spotting/ bleeding for 10 days!
Is this possible? Normal?

I started the mini pill at 6 weeks PP, I had a small amount of spotting the first couple of weeks and then a bigger bleed and nothing since, the Gp told me that some women don’t bleed at all, some will have spotting as you taken it continuously you won’t have a withdrawal bleed like the combined pill so no bleeding is normal! I did take a pregnancy test just to double check it was working though!
