IMy doctor keeps telling me that I conceived around the begginning of december. But Ihad my period in the middle of december, than after that I didn't have any more periods. I have never had this problem in the past with my other pregnancies. Any advice?

By ultrasound, your fetus can be measured by how many weeks it actually was at the time of conception. I had an aunt who was 4 months pregnant and still had her periods before she found out when she went for a routine yearly exam. It can vary from woman to woman.
Congrats on the baby!

You can still menstruate while pregnant, it is RARE but it happens.
Menstruation usually stops when a woman is pregnant. However, in some cases, a woman might have a period with less blood or that lasts fewer days than usual and still be pregnant. Your confusion is understandable because these signs can lead women to believe they are not pregnant. However, various kinds of bleeding can occur in early pregnancy. Women can get some spotting in their first trimester:
* when the fertilized egg implants in the uterus;
* if the pregnancy is abnormal in any way [i.e., ectopic pregnancy (implantation outside of the uterus, such as in a fallopian tube), a threatening miscarriage]; or,
* from bleeding as part of their menstrual cycle (this is extremely rare).

I had the same thing happen. It was believed I had a kidney infection since I continued having my cycle three months after conceiving - also in December,
