It is possible to get a period while you are preganant.  I had one at 12 weeks.  But if you are pregnant and you have ANY bleeding especially bright red blood, go to your Doctor or the ER immediately!  I had to have three internal ultrasounds to discover that I was indeed having a period.  I have a unique condition (bicornuate uterus) where my uterus is almost completely split in half and the "unpregnant side" had a period.

Good luck!

dont be "worried"/concerned until you actually get it (if you get it). you said it FEELS like its coming. i experienced the same thing when i was pregnant very early on. i had, cramps and everything else that goes along with having my period but it never came. woman have gotten a period while pregnant but from what i understand, its pretty rare.

4 weeks, huh?  You and I are in the exact same boat.  I'm 4 weeks preg.  (gestationally 2.5 weeks).  Anyway, I know what you mean by "feeling" your AF is around the corner.  Cramps, discharge, moodiness, but don't worry.  It is normal, remember, pregnancy symptoms go hand-in-hand with PMS symptoms.  We're just fine.  Unless you are discharging blood like AF, I wouldn't worry about it.  If you are having your period, please go to the doctor to make sure it's not a m/c.  Congrats on your preg. and keep me updated.

oh my god, this sickness is really drivivg me crazy, today was one of my worst days, i was sick alday i mean i had to stay in bed. my side was killing me i was sick to my belly. i cant even eat anything without feelin so sick. is there any home remedys for pregnancy sickness, or do i just have to sick this out for 8 more months?

well today i was feeling a little better, besides the back pain i woke up with, but i had a advil and it helped alot. see the thing is i can dill with the back pain, cause i can just take a advil for that. its the sickness that get to me the feeling like throwing up. but all in all today was not a sick day so i am fine so far!

by sha-baby, Oct 20, 2005 12:00AM
oh yea i spit alot all day long its like i have to spit, cause if i dont i will throw up. hav you ever heard of somone who did this when they were pregnant?

To: sha-baby
Does it help to eat anything?  I've been told to eat saltines or some other bland type food to calm your stomach.  Are you sure it's not gas pains, pregnancy can cause you to have an increase in gas bubbles, which is what I'm going through today.  Also, constipation is a factor too.  I would check with your doc. to see if you can take any sort of antacid like tums or pepto-bismal.  It is safe to take tylenol during pregnancy, and if these pains are due to cramping of some sort, it might help.  Tylenol always helped me during AF cramps.  I hope this helps.  How are you feeling today?

by Nicole19, Oct 23, 2005 12:00AM
its weird but I have heard that lollipops help with morning sickness. and hard candy. hope it helps.

I was in my 36th day without my period, took a HPT was positive and today woke from a nap with sharp pain and spotting, which turned to light bleeding. My boyfriend took me to ER and apparently I miscarried. We were so happy yesterday and today we were so sad.
Make sure you go to ER if you feel any pain, sometimes it's not as serious as my case, light spotting is common, even some bleeding, if you are in pain, get a professional opinion. I wish everybody luck and I hope this doesn't happen to anyone. This would have been my 1st baby.   :(

Go to the Dollar Store and get a home pregnancy test, and test with first morning urine.  It's the only way you will know.

My husband and I had sex earlier today and then in the evening I felt the ovulation cramp in my left side---does that mean that conception did not occur?  And if not, how long can it take for conception to occur after intercourse?

by AnnieBrooke, Aug 01, 2007 12:19AM
To: Natasha711
The ovulation cramp is either when the egg leaves the ovary, meaning your timing of the sex with your husband was just fine, or it is an ache from a cyst, meaning the egg has been out for a while and the hole it left behind is filling up with fluid, in which case the timing of the sex with your husband might be OK or might be a little late.  If you just feel a little twang and that's all, it's probably the egg leaving the ovary, and if that is so, your timing is good.  You won't know anything for two weeks, at which point you can take a home pregnancy test.

My husband and I have only been TTC for about a month and a half. I have been feeling so different lately. My period was due on the 17 of July, but it didn't come until the 22nd. WHen it did finally come, it was so light I didn't have to use a tampon or even a pantyliner. Then on the 25th. I flooded for three days. Then again, so little that I didn't have to use anything. This is the thing, I have had two miscarriages, One at 16, a son born when I was 18 and another miscarriage when I was 19. I am 33 now. I feel as though something is going on but I am not sure.  I took two tests before the 22nd and they came up negative. But after the two miscarriages when I was younger, I am scared to wait any long. I also have a bicornuate uterus and I just don't know what to do. I can't just go out and get another preg. test. I have no car and My husband works all the time, I haven't even told him that i suspect something is going on. Can anyone help me!

Get a pal to pick up a pregnancy test for you.  It's possible that an embryo implanted in one side of the uterus and the other emptied as regular during your period time.

been ttc for 8 months now. am 3 days late, got negative HPT today. I think i may be preg though. husband did a SA and results just came back that his morphology was 14% and that he shld take SA again to see if results are similar. If so we shld see a specialist. Do you think that 14% is that low. Count was normal, motility was slightly off but not at all bad..... any help is greatly appreciated.

Hello, I had my period the first week of September. The next week i had sex with my finance. My breasts have been extremely sensitive and sore. The right one though seems to be getting much bigger and heavier then the left. Is that normal for a sign of pregnancy? I also have been extremely emotional, one second I'm miserable and yelling at everyone. Then, the next I'm so happy, i cant stop being giddy. did anyone experience any of these with in the first weeks of pregnancy? I haven' taken a pregnancy test yet.

by Mingobear0712, Dec 06, 2007 11:13AM
It is not medically possible to have a real period and be pregnant. The baby would die if that was the case. Light bleeding is normal. I don't know how your friend did not find out until she was 6 months pregnant. She should have had MAJOR signs. Most women don't just pop out babies and not know. Your friend was probably misinformed about pregnancy or something. Take a test if you're worried.

No one can tell you if you're pregnant. We're not inside of your body. You should go to the doctor if you are that concerned.

hi, I have a question. I'm pretty much always overly paranoid but my fiance' and messed around on December 13 (of 07 of course) but we didn't have sex we're trying not to because we wanna keep it for when we're married. Anyways, I freaked out most of december cuz my period wasnt due until january 1st but it came on the 29th and the flow was as usual and i was happy cuz i watched out for spotting and all that stuff, so after that i had no more period/preg symptoms and no more messing around, and i calculated my period based on the 29th now, and today is the 28th of january and i took another pregnancy test yesterday and failed it. I have no cramps or anything all I have are sore breasts and I'm scared I'm pregnant my mom would be crushed, even though I'm old enough and engaged(21). What do you girls think? Am I just insanely paranoid???I failed 4 preg tests.
love,
Meep

Hi first time posting and need advice, my husband and I have been trying to conceive. I timed the ovulation I may have been a day late, but before I missed my period I had taken 3 tests first two with faint lines then the last one a negative, then I got my period like a day or two early, it was normal yet short Ive been known to bleed for 7 full days I bled for 3 maybe 4, so it's been a week since my period and I just started noticing that my bladder will wake me up from a dead sleep cause I have to pee so bad, and Im super tired, and a little moody.

You would kno if the condom broke first off. no you cant be pregnant. youve been getting  your regular periods. the only time you get periods when your pregnant is if you have like a double uterus witch is not normal. its not possible pregnancy causes you to stop getting it. you sound "hella' young so im thinking your periods not going to be regular yet. it wont show up like clockwork. if you think your pregnant the logical thing would be to take a test...so why dont you do that

anytime you choose to have unprotected sex you can be pregnant.

its not likely that you are pregnant if you had sex and then two days later you got your period. you werent ovulating at that time then, so i would say no

hey everybody i very confused right now i had sex with my boyfriend 1 1/2  after my pd and about a 1 week later i started feeling bad and so i took a pregnancy test two weeks later and it came back positive it was very very light so i waited a couple of days and took it again and it still came back positive and so i started hurtin really bad in my lower back went to the hospital and took a test and a blood test came negative and so i was still curious so i had a extra preg test so when i got home 2 hrs later i took the other one and it came back positive so im so confused right now does anyone have any advice

this is my first time posting and im hoping to get some help/ advice
im 15 years old and im terrified to talk to my mom about this .
me and my bf had sex the night my period stared. then about a week later i started showing pregnancy signs. sore boobs. my stomach hardened. queisyness, tiredness everything but actualy throwing up. its been 2 weeks since then and i shouldnt be having my perioud for another week. it came a week early. and its been really weird. it was really light and then stopped and then was pretty heavy. and ive been having major mood swings and cramps. i was just wondering if this is a normal period. or if i could be pregnant. my friend didnt find out she was pregnant till she was 5 months in so im kinda worried.
thanks

Hi,
Im 18 and the last time I had sex was a little over a month ago. I normally have my period latest by the 9th, but have been late the past few months though its not regular. Its really light but I have bad cramps the first day then they go away and my period ends about 2days later. This month I was really late and Im having pregnancy signs, could I still be pregnant?
