can you really have a period and still be pregnant??? I don't get how it could be possible... hm.

I don't think so...

it's not I'd your pregnant periods stop

I've actually heard stories of people having what they thought was their period for months into their pregnancy

Yes you can, some women have their period the entire pregnancy, others just have it the first few months. But most women won't have their periods.

actually you can,for you ladies who said NO lmao

I had two periods during my pregnancy

Yes you can!

It's not an actual period but it's a mock period. One of my friends bled and clotted once monthly during her whole pregnancy and each time she ended up in the ER just to be safe lol

My mom had a regular "period" throughout all 4 of her pregnancies. Although I don't think its an actual period. I think it just acts like one. They never could explain my moms bleeding however they said it was impossible that it was a period.

I've never heard that before

they are not called periods though @hermommy when your pregnant the baby being there stop your menstrual the bleeding isn't a period

yeah you can bleed for various resonance but having a period isn't possible when pregnant

does anyone know why it occurs? I'm ttc, and I haven't bothered taking a test cause of what I've been told by my doctor. But in all reality there's a strong possibility that I could be pregnant, I haven't got a real explanation as to why I've been bleeding after my period should end besides the depo.. it's been nearly a year since my last injection, but it stopped last night. I'm wondering if I should take a test.@kellynicole @dang_dridri @zyanneg @serenitysmommmy331 @hermommy @babyn2015 @missalexisnicole

My dr never really said why she just said it would go away and to not use tampons!! I would take a test

@karicomstock, how did your mom eventually find out she was pregnant?

I stopped using tampons when I was bleeding because it was causing me pain. But the bleeding did stop. Can it harm the baby at all, like losing blood like that? @serenitysmommmy331

I had bleeding like that for a day when I was 26 weeks and they didn't know why. Still don't know but it was harmless. So I don't know.

It's like @mrshutchison1 said its not technically a period but it has all the same characteristics and comes around your cycle time. I'm currently 9 weeks pregnant and haven't missed a "cycle". The doctors aren't sure to an exact explanation as to why it happens to some and not others but everything is fine. They said its nothing to worry about and it may subside later, for this month it hasn't come yet.

I'm her oldest so when she got pregnant with me everything was somewhat normal so she had symptoms and slight not her normal period bleeding and found out with a test. She saw her doctor found out she was having twins. She started bleeding like a period before her next one wouldve been due and they thhought she miscarried both of us but only miscarried one. Since that partial miscarriage she's had a regular period through all pregnancies and ended up going into menopause early. Her doctors couldnt explain the bleeding. With the rest of her pregnancies she just kind of felt off and tested. She said she always knew because her mom started being extra bitchy towards her (lol) and because of her symptoms and how different she felt. She also blew up really early. @makaylanichole

an older lady from my church told me that with her last she didn't know that she was pregnant until she was 7 months along because she had what she thought was her period.

Depends on how much I say make a doctor appointment
