Period?

Sarah🌈 • Married to an amazing woman. Welcomed our daughter into the world March 12, 2018 💜

I gave birth almost 6 weeks ago and am breastfeeding. Is it normal for my period to be back already? My bleeding stopped a few weeks ago and I've just been having a little bit of brown spotting since, but yesterday I started spotting red and now it's picked up considerably today.

I thought breastfeeding was supposed to delay your period? Has anyone else had this happen? I can't be hemmoraging this long after giving birth can I?
