Period or postpartum bleeding

I had my c section 4 weeks ago today and up until today, I’ve had very light bleeding/discharge. Today, I’ve woken up to heavier bleeding and what feels like a period! Is this too soon to be my period, should I be worried the bleeding has got heavier? Thank you!

I would say it’s would be your period. I had my period 4/5 weeks after my c section.

Usually, anything within the first 8 weeks is PP bleeding, even if it has stopped previously. It's normal for it to start and stop and become heavier and lighter.

Might not be helpful, but I thought I got my period back, but it was a pp bleeding, because once I got real period I really really felt it like never before.. maybe I stopped being used to after being pregnant and period free for 9 months..

Aww amazing! Thank you all so much! Xx

It can be your period, if it is very heavy and socks through a pad within an hour contact the hospital
