well I dont know who told you that but i acan answer your question i had my period for 2 mths of my preg. so yes it is possible some women even have their period their whole pregnancy

Bleeding in early pregnancy is a common occurrence, but this does not signal a true menstrual cycle. You must realize that the hormones that are active during pregnancy totally prevent ovulation. As we know, ovulation is the time in your cycle when the egg is released into the uterus and women experience menstrual bleeding. Since the egg in pregnant women is already fertilized, ovulation does not occur and hence no bleeding.

Early Pregnancy Bleeding
However, it is not uncommon to find that many women do report getting what seem like regular periods during early pregnancy. The bleeding that pregnant women complain about though is not truly a menstrual period. It can be called as early pregnancy bleeding. The perception of having a menstrual period (or more than one) in early pregnancy can confuse the due date and delay some pregnant women from seeking appropriate and timely medical care. In instances where a couple is unaware that they are expecting, it can be particularly emotionally challenging to find out about the pregnancy at the same time they are told that the bleeding might signal a problem.
It can be hard to calculate your date of delivery when you aren't sure which period was the true last menses. A number of timing issues can help provide a ballpark estimate of when conception took place. Pay attention to these dates for help - when did you have unprotected intercourse, when did the pregnancy test turned positive (especially if there were some negative results before the positive one), and when you first noticed symptoms of pregnancy (such as breast tenderness or nausea). An ultrasound is the best technique to determine the baby's due date if you are not sure about one or more of these dates.

Identifying the due date is quite important in prenatal care, since some tests, like the triple check, are standardized by the exact number of weeks of gestation. In addition, most couples as well as their practitioner want to have some idea of when to expect the baby. Here are some explanations for what may seem like regular menstrual flow when you are pregnant.
It is entirely possible to have menstrual periods throughout pregnancy. Every woman is different. Someone I know had no idea she was expecting until the minute she went into labour - she had normal, regular periods all the way through! So yes, it's possible. And 'spotting' is USUALLY exactly that - spots of blood - nothing more. So it is very unlikely that spotting resembles a period closely enough to be confused with one, since periods are generally heavier and a continuous flow. Finally, id like to point out that during the first four weeks or so of pregnancy, because the pregnancy is not fully 'established', in a sense, parts of the womb lining can still detach and pass out as a period. So many explanations for bleeding during pregnancy! I suppose it was more the above person's attitude that annoyed me more than his or her sheer lack of knowledge and understanding of the female menstrual cycle and pregnancy.

If a woman bleeds in pregnancy, it's not really a period, but many women mistake it for that and so they don't know they are pregnant for a while. They just think they had a period that was late or early or lighter or heavier than usual.

You cannot have a true menstrual period while pregnant because you are not ovulating.

Some women get cramps in pregnancy, too, but not always with bleeding.

Yes and as soon as it is rebuilt it is going to be more potent than it used to be earlier than. The reminiscence of having by way of dangerous occasions shall be side of your shared historical past and convey you nearer ultimately.
