Menstruating already?

The baby is only four weeks old, and I think I just started my period today...I have still been having discharge since her birth, but today it is more like blood, and I have been crampy. I just thought that seemed really soon, especially since I am breastfeeding full-time. Does that sound normal or should I call my doctor? I'm kind of disapointed, I was looking forward to no period for awhile. :(

I think that is quite normal. I have a friend that has had 4 children, and she got her period back at 4 weeks with each of them. Unlucky, but ok. You  must just be very fertile!

I am not sure on this one. I had Sarah almost 5 weeks ago and still no period for me..and I stopped breast feeding.
