NO.
You can still have what is called "Breakthrough bleeding" and be pregnant.
You could get your period, and start bleeding, and then the egg could implant in the Fallopian tube and have an ectopic pregnancy. Which may also bleed.
In fact the egg implanting in the uterus may cause a slight spotting which some women confuse with a light period.
My Mom bled for the first 3 months of each of her pregnancies. For no good reason. She just did.
So no, you can bleed and be pregnant.
Get a drugstore test, and back it up with a doctor/lab test.

No question is a dumb question if you're worried sweet heart. If you are on your period it means you are not pregant. When you bleed your body is cleansing itself of an unfertilized egg and the other "supplies" that were there to support it just in case it was fertilized. Take a deep breath and don't worry. Sometimes anxiety will cause you to miss a period and then you really will be scared.

Period= Not pregnant.
Some people get light periods after getting pregnant. But its a low %.

yes and no it really depends on the person and the way their cycles run. some people don't have them for 2 months or more. which isn't all bad and don't mean something is wrong but not just right either.

Yes, it means you're not pregnant.

Usually no, but a woman can have her period while she is pregnant, too. The best bet is to buy a pregnancy test.

you did NOT ask a dumb question.
women CAN bleed while they are pregnant. you need to go to the doctor and take a pregnancy test to positively ascertain whether or not you are pregnant.
