Brown discharge after first period finish after giving birth

I just got my period back after giving birth 2 months ago. The bleeding has stopped on day 6 after which the discharge back to white/cloudy. However today, my discharge is brownish, light amount. Is it normal that period afterbirth is a little haywire or something? Should i be worried? I checked ovulation test strip - negative. #firstbaby #firstmom
