Periods and breastfeeding??

I just had my baby March 5th and I’m breastfeeding I’m 6 weeks pp now. I stopped postpartum bleeding around 4-5 weeks pp. I just started bleeding dark brown like the beginning of a period. Is it too soon for it to come back?? I really don’t want a period 😭 I’m barely making enough breast milk as is and ik it tanks your supply. Has this happened to anyone?? Could it be more postpartum bleeding??

I was exclusively breastfeeding for over 2 years and I got my period around that time I believe, it didn’t hurt my supply but definitely got it regularly after the first one. Everyone is different.

This happened to me with my first baby but I don’t believe it was actually a period. Just that the bleeding came back temporarily. I think this because I didn’t get another period until 7 or 8 months postpartum.

This is my second time pp . My period came back at 6 weeks both times, and both kids are EBF

Yea I had my baby march 5 and this has happened to me as well I think this is the real period lol but my supply hasn’t changed at all
