Periods post baby

I had a baby back in 2024 (now 15 months). I didn’t get my period back until about 10/11 months PP as I was breastfeeding. I used to have long cycles (to the point they were bordering on nearly out of the normal range). Since they’ve come back, they’re much lighter and shorter cycles (usually 4 weeks on the dot).
However yesterday, 3 and a half weeks since my last period I had some random bright red blood when wiping. However, it totally stopped within the hour and now there’s nothing at all. TMI but I wore a tampon and it was just a tiny bit of dried blood and I haven’t needed one since but I have cramping. This has never happened to me before and now I’m worried that there’s something wrong with me.
Unsure what this bleeding is and whether it was even my period and now worrying I’ll never be able to have another baby.
has anyone had anything similar happen PP?

Could you be pregnant?

I would keep an eye on it for now. It may turn into your period in a day or so.
