could be implantation bleeding.  when the cells or blastowhatever burrows into the lining of your uterus to start growing and changing.  happened for me about the same time my af was due to show.  it was light and watery.  my usual af's are 8 days/heavy!!  i hope its a bfp for you.  have you taken a hpt?  good luck and best wishes.

I had a period with our daughter. I distinctly remember being really sick, dizzy and hot. I had to leave work early and my hubby went to get me some theraflu. Well, I was just miserable but had no clue that it was because I was pregnant, I had just had my period so that was not a thought at all. When the sickness would not go away, I went into the doctor and she said that I was pregnant. I couldn't believe it! I then told her that I had just had my period a week prior and she said that sometimes that happens.
Take a test and good luck to you! :)

Hello Everyone!! I am new here. I was searching online about having your period and still be pregnant.... I am 5 days early with AF had some cramping this morning but thats has subsided and just bleeding now a pinkish/red watery type. Exactly 11 days ago I was ovulating so my BF and I had intercouse (Yes we are trying to get pregnant) an im 29 days between AF cycles. So when I woke up with a brown discharge and no cramping once I was up cleaning house and stuff I had gotten crampy and by noon it was like pinkish/red. Could I be pregnant or is this AF visting? Im so confused over this being that its my first if I am pregnant. Can someone give me some info. An what I have read makes me think I am pregnant so im not sure anymore what to think. Thanks Alot!!

take a home pregnancy test.  Spotting in early pregnancy is normal, but you should watch if it gets heavy with clots and if you have cramping.  If you are spotting and pregnant, you will want to get in to see a Dr. asap.  Good luck to you!!

I had a gut feeling the other day to take a hpt, maybe it was intuition or whatever and the results were positive. Soon after I started my period. I was confused so I took another test and that came out positive also. I called the Dr. to set an appt. and the nurse said that there was no way I could be pregnant because I had my period so I took another test (I am very anal) and that came up positive. My dr. ordered a blood test be done and no surprise there the results were positive. She ordered another one because she is dead set on being right. Could I still have my period and be pregnant??? I am going crazy not knowing and I can't get an appt. until the dr is for sure. Anybody have any answers??? Please help

I would get a new dr if a blood test came out positive and she still won't see you! That sounds crappy. Is there a way you can see another dr??

I am currently looking for a new dr. but the ones that I have talked to all seem to laugh at me. So the search continues, but hopefully after she gets the results to the 2nd test, she'll believe me!

Started progesterone cream inserts and it has almost stopped with the exception of a little black brown color on the progesterone as it exits. I go tomorrow for more blood work. How I am praying that all is fine with my little one. I'll keep yall posted. I hope this helps. God bless

i can't believe your doctor thinks your crazy. my husband's grandmother had her period throughout her entire pregnancy with her second child. it happens. most women don't even know they are pregnant. a woman in my support group also had regular periods while she was pregnant. it happens.

I recently read that one out of every three pregnancies start out as twins, but one is miscarried.  I bled heavily 8 weeks into my first pregnancy and was still pregnant, so I think that is what happened to me and very well could be with you.  Tell your doctor to keep up with the literature!!

Hi, I am 23 and had sex last month, ~2 weeks after my period, with my long distance BF.  The condom came off inside of me at the very end.  About a week and a half later I started bleeding but much lighter and shorter amount of days then normal.  Then 2 weeks after that I bled for 2 days, still way lighter that normal.  But I am very tired, cramping, craving specific foods, gagging after I eat.  What does this mean?  Can anyone help?

I had my full regular (3-5 day) period the first trimester with my DS. It really freaked me out because by 6 weeks I was having some round ligament pain and was sure it was ectopic. I had the ultrasound at 7 weeks and everything was where it was suppose to be and that spring I had a healthy, 8lb 10oz, baby boy! He's now 3'tall and 35#'s at 21 months. I know how worrisome it is, but maritial congress with your DH would not normally cause problematic bleeding. I am now 14 weeks and  have had only the slightest of spotting one day in the first month, so everytime it's different. Bright Blessings and Best of Luck!

Hi everyone,

I'm new to this site and I was reading up on everyone's comments.  I am 13 weeks pregnant and had bleeding at my 8th week and 11th week of pregnancy.  Bright red blood.  Both times my OBGYN did an ultrasound and said everything looked good.  The first time at 8 weeks, he said it was more then likely the implantation.  At 11 weeks he couldn't find a source for the blood, but said "sometimes these things happen without a reason".  I too had a miscarrage in September of 05 prior to this pregnancy so bleeding of any type is scaring, concerning and confusing.

Try not to worry and have Faith if you can.  Talking to your doctor with any concerns is always the best reasurance.  Especially since a pregnant women's mind worries about EVERYTHING!!!

God Bless and good Luck!
