The return of menstruation during nursing varies for each mother, and some signs may indicate the pre-menstrual period:
- Light spotting or pinkish discharge (most common early sign)
- Mild cramping in groin and lower back area
- Breast tenderness or fullness (may feel different in nursing mothers)
- Mood fluctuations, mild irritability
- Temporary decrease in milk production or baby becomes fussy while nursing — this results from hormonal fluctuations and improves within a few days
These signs may not appear in everyone; for some mothers, menstruation starts without warning. If bleeding is very heavy, clotted, or lasts longer than 7 days, consulting an obstetrician is recommended.
