What Causes Intestinal Gas And Menstrual Cramps After Delivery?

Hi I ve been having these cramps for a few weeks, they feel kinda like menstrual cramps. They are also sometimes followed by gas or the need to poop and has caused me to poop at least 2 times in 1 day which is unusual for me. I had a baby 3 months ago so Idk if it s maybe my period trying to start or something more serious. I do 100% breastfeed as well. Any ideas as to what this could be?
