Its not a period in the normal context. A period is actually a cleansing action. The uterine wall degenerates and passes out roughly every 27 day. When a woman is pregnant the uterine wall is in full use and the body accept the changes and nourishes the fetus through the wall via the placenta. Therefore any bloody discharge during pregnancy is not a period in the normal sense and should be checked (with a doctor) immediately.

Everyone says yes... but if you look at how the female system works, it seems utterly physically impossible. The whole point of a period is to get RID of everything in the uterus that is not needed after an egg is NOT fertilized. Also, someone please explain to me how on EARTH this period gets past a mucus plug (the upper cervical STOPPER that prevents anything from going in or out until the baby comes). I believe that some women may have a sensitive cervix and that bleeding could logically come from that like after rough sex or something like that, but to have a "period" during your pregnancy??? Don't see how it could physically happen. I had bleeding in my 3rd month scared the crap out of me but doctor said it was a lower cervical tear.

Yes. If you have a pregnancy that gets "stuck" in your Fallopian tube (called an ectopic pregnancy), you will still have your period. However this type of pregnancy usually self-terminates at about 8 weeks when the fetus is too large for the tube and literally causes it to explode making emergency surgery necessary to save the woman's life.
Ectopic pregnancies usually happen when a woman has had a sexually transmitted disease that left her tubes scarred.

Absolutely. Some women have their period throughout the entire pregnancy. With my first child, i didn't have my period throughout the whole nine months but that first month i had a period. But i was still pregnant. So i ended up not getting to the doctor until later in my pregnancy, which is dangerous for your baby because most miscarriages happen in the first trimester and you need to be taking prenatal vitamins. Some women take vitamins before their pregnancy.

It can happen but it's rare. Most of the time when a woman says she has her period it really isn't one. It's just bleeding or spotting. The bleeding or spotting would be lighter than a regular period and only last a couple of days. It should never be clotty or thick or last more than 6 days.

yes. al women are different and sometimes the body fails to recognize the changes and continues to produce ovaries and then a menstrual period. It is actually very common.

Yes.
I did.
Pay attention to all of the answers here that are telling you it's reality. I notice one post that says it doesn't happen 95% of the time. Well that means it does happen in 1 out of every 20 pregnancies.

yes that is very common . if your not sure your pregnant due to your bleeding and it is throwing off the pregnant test i would go to your doctor or your local women's clinic and get a blood pregnancy test so you know what is going on .
