could you be pregnant and have your period?

Answer 1

Yes its possible

Answer 2

Question: Can you be pregnant and still get your period?

Answer: Well, no, you can't get your period once you're pregnant — once your body starts producing the hormone human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) and your pregnancy is established, your menstrual cycle is interrupted and normal periods will stop — but you may have bleeding or spotting during pregnancy that can seem like a period.

Some pregnant women have what's called "implantation bleeding" that can happen around the time their period is due, and they may mistake that bleeding for a period. This spotting may be caused by the fertilized egg burrowing into the blood-rich lining of the uterus (a process that starts just 6 days after fertilization) and it's generally a lot lighter than a typical period — just a day or two of very light spotting.

If you're pregnant and you're not sure when your last period started, this can make establishing a due date difficult for your healthcare provider. If you have any doubts, your practitioner can feel how big your uterus is with a pelvic examination and estimate how far along you are. In most cases, your provider will also order an ultrasound before midpregnancy to measure the size of your developing baby to clarify exactly when the baby is due.

Many women who bleed a little bit in early pregnancy go on to deliver without any complications, but bleeding can also be a cause for concern. It may be the first sign of a miscarriage; if so, your symptoms will probably go on to include heavy cramping and bleeding much heavier than a normal period. If you have sharp pains in your lower abdomen, especially if the pain is only on one side, you should see your practitioner right way to find out if you may have an ectopic pregnancy (also known as a tubal pregnancy). Because of these potential complications, if you bleed at all early in your pregnancy, it's best to notify your doctor or midwife to get specific instructions. She may suggest getting a blood test to check your hCG levels or order an ultrasound to evaluate your condition more thoroughly

Answer 3

When I found out I was pregnant I was 3 months because I had a period for the first three.

Answer 4

In answer no...you can't possibly have a"period" if your pregnant. What some mistake as periods, or swear by that they had them each month even on time..can be explained as spotting. You can't carry a baby without uterine lining, which is what you shed during menstruation. So no you can't have a period if your pregnant, but some women can spot through their entire pregnancy, which can be mistook as a period.

Answer 5

Yeah cause when my mom had her first baby she was getting her period for 4 months until she found out she was pregnant the doctor had too stop her period cause she could have lost the baby.

Answer 6

Yes you can have your period and be pregnant. There is also the posiability that the blood that is being seen is not a "real" period but the implantation of the fertilized egg in the uterus thus causing "spotting" that can resemble a period.

Yes, I had two periods with my first pregnancy. They did not effect my test results though. I took a test a few days before my first period should have come and it was positive. I was however concerned when my period did start.
