Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
It is absolutely normal to have 1 or 2 cycles of heavy, irregular periods once you start back menstruation to normal after baby arrival and during breastfeeding.
Wish you fine recovery and health.
Regards.
