can I be pregnant and still have menstrual cycles?

[cicc]

I went to the doctor several months ago feeling pregnant only to find out that i have hypothyroid.  2 months later, i was feeling little flutters and movement so I went back and had an ultrasound to make sure i was not pregnant because i am having menstrual cycles every month.  the ultrasound tech spent maybe all of one minute on the ultrasound and said i was fine.  this was just an urgent medical place not an OBGyn.  the doctor told me it could just be muscle spasms and possibly gas and I am sure he thought i was psychosomatic or something but he claimed i should not worry as long as i am not in any pain.  It is  a month and a half later and those flutter movements are still occuring  along with those flips or rolls you would normally feel during mid to late pregnancy.  I am 30 years old with two of my own children I think I know the difference between gas and baby movement. I know this is not "in my head"  the only time i have ever felt anything like this has been when i am pregnant.
  I have tried to pretend its not happening but the movement is frequently through the day and very strong and extremely hard to ignore.  My question is could i really be pregnant and still be having a period every month Or could this be related to the thyroid medication?   this paticular doctor said it is not common to have a period when you are pregnant but i do not believe that is true.  am i right?  if this is not pregnancy then please tell me what could possibly be moving inside of me  to this magnitude.

I have had a regular period for the past two months, but now I'm starting to feel flutters and very tired all the time. Could I be expecting?

I am 33 with 5 daughters now but have been prego 6 times. I am now having the same problem as soon are with having a cycle and still having all of the signs of a pregnancy.  I am tired all of the time, breast feel heavier than usual, frequent bathroom use, nausea at times but it goes away, hungry late in the evening and early in the a.m., previous stretch marks are starting to darken back up, stomach is starting to swell with a hard knot on the left side ( had 2 c-sections for the last 2 children so my stomach muscles aren't what they were with vaginal deliveries), and mild pain in my lower back.  I have taken several home tests all came up negative. I even went to the doctor in July and it came up negative as well.  I am still having these feelings and most of all the strange dreams when normally I don't have any dreams that I can remember the next morning like I do now.  I am worried especially since I had a tubal pregnancy 10 years ago before I had my youngest two.  I have researched the issue of having a "period" during pregnancy and each are different in either saying yes or no and being pregnant.  When in my families history my mother bleed the whole time with me and they didn't detect the pregnancy until 8 months along.  My question to anyone who may respond to this, Is it possible that after having 6 pregnancies that I can have all the symptoms and bleed and no doctor can detect the pregnancy?

Hi I am showing positive urine test since Monday September 24th and I started bleeding on Wednseday 27th. I went to the ER and they did not see anything on the sonogram. Did a pelvic exam and my cervix was closed. I am still bleeding light red and having on and off cramping. I was suppose to get my period on the 26th. My hcg levels are 35 which tells that I am very early but low levels. Could I still be getting my epriod and have a normal pregnancy? Today I did urine test still positive.
