While pregnant the lining does not break down because it is being used to support the placenta and fetus.
Is it possible to be pregnant while have menstruation?
If you bleed during pregnancy it's not menstruation. It can sometimes seem like it but it's not. And it's usually lighter. If you are menstruating however you can not be pregnant. You menstruate because the uterus is shedding the lining since no egg is fertilized and attached to it. When pregnant you do not release eggs and the uterus can not shed the lining since then you would have a miscarriage.
Can you have your period while pregnat?
False.It is physically impossible to get your menstruation cycle (period) while you are pregnant. The reason being that your period happens because eggs are being released from your ovaries. Your uterus creates a cushioning wall for that egg, if it ever happened to be fertilized, thus getting you pregnant. If the egg is not fertilized, the uterus lining is no longer needed so you shed it in the form of blood through your vagina. This is your period. When you get pregnant, the egg and sperm untie to make a baby, and you need the cushioning uterus lining so your body does not shed it.
