Normal Period During pregnancy

I was curious as to if it is at all possible to have a normal period (with cramps) during pregnancy?

You don't have a clue about recent knowledge.  Some Women "DO" and YES they Do have NORMAL PERIODS during their pregnancies, some even have regular periods during the whole 9 months.  

Now most doctors are learning this as well and even child development courses are teaching this knowledge.  These women don't ovulate but they still get the menstrual blood.

it was the old understanding that women cannot have a normal cycle when they are pregnant.

That is why in old days many women would lose their babies because they never knew they are pregnant by seeing themselves menstruating and then they would have a miscarriage because they never took care of themselves

the best way is to just get tested for pregnancy, either way:  whether or not someone wants to be pregnant!

i HAVE 6 KIDS....4 sons and two daughters....and i had normal menstrual bleeding throughout my pregnancy...at first, i did freak out as this is not normal and maybe iam having a miscarriage...but No! i was actually in real pregs and also had my menses while being pregs.....I dont know about science here but my experience and especially having 6 kids speaks for itself ..that it is possible to have period while being pregnant through out those nine months....

i had sex on November 26th.
and My period did start in December (a couple days late) and it was 4 days instead of the normal 6-7 and it wasn't as heavy as usual. (i also didn't get cramping or sore breasts the whole time)

my next period is 10-13 days away and my nipples are extremely sore, and I am getting slight cramping.
can anyone assure me i am not pregnant?

Sorry I have been reading your comments and I would just like to say you can have a period during pregnancy as me and my mum suffer from heavy periods and had a period all the way through pregnancy we both got checked out and everything was fine so yes you can have a period well pregnant every women body is different
