Breast Feeding, Bleeding, Cramps. On Depo Provera. Normal?

Hello, I am 34 years old and breastfeeding going on 1 year now. I have stopped taking the depo provera shot. My last shot was in October. I received my first period (I think) two weeks ago and it lasted 5 days. The bleeding was moderate and so was the cramping. 3 days ago I started bleeding and cramping again. This actually started the day after sexual intercourse. Should I be concerned?
