I finally had my period, it was a day or 2 late i think, but it only lasted for 1 1/2 days. It usually last 4 days. I took a preg test evening of the 15, and morning of 16, both were negtive. I started to spot alittle bit in the afternoon/ evening of the 16th. Had a full, med.-heavy flow on 17th, but by the late evening of 17th and today, its back to light and spotting. Any advice?

It could be just your nerves. They can throw your entire system out of balance. This being said, yes you can still have your period and be pregnant. I had mine several times throughout my pregnancy. (I went to my prenatal exams religiously, and was completely healthy--some women just do that. However, in some people it can mean that there is something wrong with the pregnancy. There is no one set answer!)
Just relax, give it a week or so, then retest.

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 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 provider 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 the middle of your pregnancy to measure the size of your developing baby and clarify exactly when the baby is due.

Many women who bleed a little bit in early pregnancy 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 probably will go on to include heavy cramping and bleeding much heavier than a normal period.

Abnormal bleeding can also be a sign of ectopic or tubal pregnancy. 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 have an ectopic pregnancy. A tubal pregnancy can be life-threatening, and sometimes the only symptom is bleeding around the time your period is expected. Often, the period may be lighter than usual. Sometimes a home pregnancy test will be negative, and the pregnancy can only be detected by checking blood hCG levels.

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.

I would wait until at least another 2 weeks have passed and get an actual blood test.
I too had a unusual period and blood tests at 4 weeks. I was told I was not pregnant. Went to the hospital with a god awful flu. Eight months later, I had a beautiful baby girl.

Please go and have a blood test. Have you been under any unusual stress lately? Has the color of the blood changed? Sometimes it is a reddish brown and other times, bright pink.

Hope this helps you.

Yes it is possible but if you have taken two pregnancy tests and both were negative, it is extremely unlikely. Take another to be sure.
