Menstrual Cycle While Pregnant?!?

Question

Has anyone experienced what they have thought to be their normal menstrual cycle, but found out later that you were pregnant? If so, (this may get graphic if some explain in detail) can you explain whether or not if your cycle seemed the same or was there something different about it. Like the amount of days, if the flow was heavy or light, etc. I've heard that some woman can be pregnant and still menstrate regularly all the way up until there 7th month of pregnancy (not spotting, actual cycle). I've also heard that when some woman become pregnant and not know, that there cycle gets heavy for a day or so and then light, and then there cycle is over (2 - 3 day cycle). Any info would be appreciated. Ecspecially info from woman who have been through this. Thanks!!!!

If you experienced this "normal period" while pregnant, was there cramping? If so was it mild, light, heavy.

Answer 1

When I got pregnant with my first, the first thing that happened was: I would eat dinner and then go get sick. Happened a couple of times. Then I got what seemed to be a normal period, but a day shorter and a little lighter Then a couple of weeks later, light spotting of pink for 2 or 3 days. My grandma had a period for 6 months with my uncle!
