Not sure where to post this but...

I had my son almost exactly two month ago. He is breastfeeding every 2-3 hours during the day and every 4-6 hours at night. I am also pumping twice a day.

I just started bleeding a little bit last night. My lochia lasted about 4-5 weeks, I tore a little bit during the birth, but that has all healed well and I've been feeling great. I haven't had any PMS, cramping or other normal period symptoms...what is going on? Did I just only get 8 weeks of postpartum infertility?

Suggestions? Should I be worried?

I don't know about "worried" but you should be careful. Start whatever postpartum birth control you planned.

Hard to tell. It could just be some more PP bleeding, but it's totally possible that it's your first PP AF - I got mine back at just 6 weeks PP and my DD fed (and still does!) way more frequently than your DS.
Some people are just unlucky when it comes to this

With my first, I had a little odd bleeding around the 2 or 3 month mark. After that, no bleeding until AF returned at about 7 mos pp.
