hi i'm stopping in with a question on the minipill.
i recently had a baby, she is 8 weeks now, i stopped bleeding/spotting around 6weeks and started the minipill about 7 weeks and started spotting a couple days later. other women i have talked to have had the same thing happen.
now for my question(s)...is this a period? is it because of the minipill? will i start having a monthly period now?
just trying to figure out what this is and if it will continue and if i am ovulating again.

Hi bp_designs,


Breakthrough bleeding is common on the minipill, particularly in the first few months as your body adjusts to the hormones.
