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

Hi, I kind of have a similar question.. since the beginning of this mnth the last time me and my fiancee had sex, (we aren't currently living together) two days after I had a weird tingling pain on my left boob thru out the day for three days. On the second day I woke up bloated all day with gas, my pee has been a cloudy light yellow color til now which is the 24 of august 2011. The third day I had diarrhea all day along with gas. I broke out the first to second week and thought it was because I was trying a new cleanser on my face that I only used a week. Also me and my fiancee have noticed little bumps on my nipples, that hve increased in numbers since then. Now for my question, I usually strt hurting like a soreness frm my boobs two to three days bfor my period. On Saturday morning I woke up with my boobs completely sore like nvr bfor, plus my body was achey also, I thought since my fiancee was sick he gave it to me, well the Thursday that was cming up I was suppose to get my period. So between sat and today(thurs) my boobs have been sore, and more when I get into bed I've had this pulling stretchy kind feeling on my lower abdominal. Yesturday which was the 23 rd I woke up went to the bathroom wiped, saw a light pink spot, got in shower, nothing came out. Got dressed and went to the restroom bfor sitting.g dwn little bit more blood. Thru the whole day every time I would pee I would change my tampon but it was very light in blood usually strtd off lite then gets heavy, nothing like that, and usually when I would get my period I would get cramps, nothing. In the morning around 9 I got up to see that my tampon was full and all day I have had full tampons..so I dnt kno what to think and clots along with them..so I'm a little worried. Can somebody give me an answer. I'm going to wait and see.

Hey my mother  periods when she was carrying my brother they were all normal flows at the time of her monthly's. Also she never new she was pregnant at all she had no sign what so ever not even a bump we was on holadays a month before and I was sitting on her belly in the pool! So I don't know what happend there but it was a magical not knowing what was going to come out of my mother and a perfect 7pound baby blond hair blue eyes it was very strange not knowing one little bit.

I don't know if this helps or not in anybody's situation but here it is...

When I was pregnant with my son (who is now almost 10years old) I had what seemed like a period for my whole pregnancy except for the last month. I had it every month, the same time, same amount of days, heavy and with clots. I can't say for sure it was a "period" but it definitely seemed like it. My doctor said it is possible but rare for women to experience what I experienced and still have a healthy child. I didn't even gain weight until I was about 6 months along, in fact before then I was losing weight. Also, I never got a positive HPT throughout my whole pregnancy. And a blood test didn't even show positive until I was 32 weeks along and the only way we knew I was pregnant was through ultrasound but my hormones were so off that it wasn't being detected. So my advice for any woman who thinks that pregnancy is a possibility is to go to your doctor. Even if the blood test and urine show negative and you really believe you are pregnant, demand an ultrasound. That was the only way I could confirm I was pregnant. Every woman is different so it is wrong for any of us to sit here and say what is and what isn't possible. We are not professionals or scientists and even then, they could be proven wrong sometimes. My own doctor didn't even believe I was pregnant when I demanded an ultrasound because of the bleeding and negative blood and urine tests but I was and I have an almost 10year old son now. I had a rare pregnancy, as stated above, so I know first hand. Not through friends but my own personal experience. Now grant it this doesn't happen a lot, as my doctor said, it's rare but possible. With my second child I knew I was pregnant right away and the complete opposite happened with her. I got a positive HPT when I was 4 weeks and I had no bleeding at all and now she is 6 years old! Best of luck to all of you!

ok all, heres my story.... Im 36 yearsold and just had a baby 15 months ago. My hubby had a vasectomy 8 months ago, but never went back for a sperm check. Well for the past 5 months my periods have been strange. I used to get them on the 29th of every month, give or take a day. Now over the course of 5 months im now getting my period on the 19 of every month, give or take a day. So each month it came earlier and earlier. I usually always bled 5-7 days moderate to heavy, now only bleeding 2-5 days light to moderate. My boobs hurt on and off and sometimes i have a burning sensation in my nipples. I also feel strange movement in my belly, like a baby kicking. I have terrible hearburn and indigeation all the time. I feel like im going crazy, but need some advice. I really dont want another baby, but really nervous at the same time. Maybe its early menopause. Someone please reply!!

Me and my fiancee want a baby so we've been having unprotected sex. my cycled have always been regular with unbearable cramps and votmiting. But for the last couple months - had mild cramps and naseau but no throwing up. Last month my period was late and I had no pms symptoms untill the day - had my period which included me throwing up non_stop and severe cramps I was barely lucid it was one of my worst period ever. This month I felt a lump in da right lower side of my abdominal and I got witnesses to feel it so I cud mke sure I wasn't imagining things. But I took a test it was negative and today - got my period faintly red and really light naseua but then again its only the first day. I could still feel the lump and ocasional like pulsation or pain in dat spot only. Any comments on your thoughts would be really appreciated
