After Baby Help!

I am sooo confused! I delivered my first child on Mar. 4th ... for the past 8 months I have been having irregular bleeding. For the 1st 2 months while I nursed I was on the mini pill and then I stopped nursing and went to a stronger pill ortho tri cyclen well mood swings galore ,bad reaction,that week I called the doc's and was put on loestrin i believe 1/20.. well i got my period 2x a month usually every other week and so annoying because the bleeding was so light but too heavy for a liner ick! Well after 4 months I am now on loestrin but the higher dosage 1/35? I am still having breakthrough bleeding even the fake period is sooooo light!!!
I dont know what to do should I give my body time to readjust after having a baby and not switch for a few more months! I just want to stop bleeding already and have a period once a month like normal lol... Any advice? It seems patients know more than doctor's these days lol...
Thanks a bunch :) ~ Michelle
I'm also new to the board, I'm sure I'll be on here alot since I have all these BC problems lol... ;)

sounds like your body's confused after having the baby and the switching of so many pills.....You should talk to your dr & explain how frustrated you are and see if the two of you can come up with a solution that works for you....I would ride it out with this last pill that you're on...I know it's annoying...The last switch I made was to an IUD (from the mini pill micronor--hated micronor)..I had periods that lasted 16+ days and came every two weeks for the first few months....they got lighter and shorter each month after that.....It takes a few cycles to get back to normal....It sounds to me like your body hasn't had a chance with all the changes it's gone through lately....hope you find a solution that works well for you....good luck.....
