Periods while Pregnant

Yes you can be pregnant. ASk for an ultrasound scan.

It can by a symptom, but it could also mean you just had a short period this month. Take a home test or go see a doctor if you aren't sure.

It must be, since I'm 61 and still have it! I'm sick of it now after all these years and it gets in the way of my sexual life too. How much longer?

Part of it seems to be determined by the number of pregnancies a woman has had.

Sometimes it is commen for women to have periods during pregnancy.

But, any kind of bleeding during a pregnancy should be reported to your doctor so they can check just in case to make sure that there was no miscarriage.

i would say u most defo are pregnant .im 10 days late today and up until yesterday had done 7 hpt.they were all negative.then yesterday i done 3 more.all positeve!!!teh line was so faint i could barely see it but it was there.went to docs and he confirmed im 5 weeks gone. .good luck xx

Yes, implantation bleeding is the result of a fertilized egg(s) embedding itself into the uterine lining.

The average time for your cycle to return is 4-6 weeks. But it is possible for it to come a little sooner or a little later. If u havent gotten your period by week 8 i would defintely be letting your doctor know. Once your hcg levels start to go down you can ovulate and then of course your period should follow shortly.

Yes, you could be pregnant. Sometimes women have implantation bleeding that starts around the time of their period. Also stress could also mess up your periods. If you're not sure just take a home pregnany test. They are pretty reliable.

It could be a cervical change that can cause vaginal bleeding. Vaginal bleeding can also be a symptom of ectopic (tubal) pregnancy. Another cause for bleeding during pregnancy is a miscarriage although the first two reasons for bleeding are more common, it is still a good idea to contact your doctor if you are too concerned.

you can always be pregnant with negative test results. that's why its good to check with a blood test. because sometimes the HGC hormone is not enough to detect by home pregnancy tests.be sure to check with your doctor and take a blood test.

p.s. it can also be changes in your PMS symptoms. last month i thought i was pregnant because i was nauseas all the time i was little more tired than usuall but nothing major. and my breast were sore and swallen. but a few days later i got my period right on time so maybe your body is adjusting to new PMS symptoms

good luck

Yes, you could be pregnant. Although the failure rate of IUDs is less than 1 in 100, it does happen. However, some IUDs, such as the Mirena coil, release hormones that generally reduce or eliminate periods. If you have one of these hormonal IUDs, it could be causing your light and missing periods. If you think you might be pregnant, take a test immediately. Over-the-counter pregnancy tests are readily accessible; however, a blood test administered by a physician would produce more reliable results.

sometimes it is hard and can be a pain in the ass but some ways to tell are is if smells different from a normal period, it can be irregular but may also follow the pattern of a normal peiod, there will be no or little clotting, if you have clotting and are pregnant that is not a good sign because clotting is the uterine lining after it shed itself, and if there is not uterine lining what is the fetalized egg going to attach itself to, and this bleeding will most likely be considerably shorter than a normal period, and be a lighter flow and possibly different colors, like more pinkier or brownish, hope this helps, but every one is different so itwont be the same for every one

I think they kinda go a little nuts! They begin to question their worth and feel very empty. They will perhaps work long hours to avoid pain. They may try and get attention. They will feel very alone as they see they are not that important aftre all. They may also become angry at people who left them.

Yes, if u have unprotected sex you will eventually get pregnant.. having abnormal periods can make it harder to get pregnant. try buying an ovulation test if your trying....it worked for me after mths of trying. Good luck and best wishes.

Yes, this is very normal. The expression "eating for two" is a myth, and you should eat a normal, well balanced diet with only about 300 additional calories per day than you would consume if you were not pregnant.

You may, however, experience appetite ups and downs; some days you may feel more hungry than others, while other days you may not feel as hungry as usual. This is normal, and varies from one woman to another.

But if you go for a long period with no appetite, then you need to consult your doctor.

The symptoms you described -- breast enlargement, stretch marks, internal movement -- are signs of advanced pregnancy. Bleeding heavily for three days is a sign of serious complications, not getting your period. You need to see a doctor -- STAT!

If you know for sure that you are pregnant, it is probably not going to be your period, although some women have experienced a "first" period then learns a couple of weeks later that they really are pregnant. It is possible that it could be implantation bleeding caused by the fertilized egg to attach itself to the uterine wall. Or it could be a cervical change that can cause vaginal bleeding. Vaginal bleeding can also be a symptom of ectopic (tubal) pregnancy. Another cause for bleeding during pregnancy is a miscarriage although the first two reasons for bleeding are more common, it is still a good idea to contact your doctor.

Some women may have longer periods with heavy flow followed by shorter cycles and hardly any bleeding. Others will begin to miss periods completely. During this time, a woman also becomes less able to get pregnant

There is a whole bunch of answers to this. The most common bleed occurs because a blood vessel has ruptured in the vaginal passage. This area becomes blood filled and very delicate during pregnancy. It is prone to bruising and bleeding and causes spotting. Another reason for bleeding is that the placenta is trying to detach itself from the wall of the uterus. This is dangerous and the bleeding is heavier. If in doubt - have the bleeding checked out by a doctor. A rule of thumb is that if it is light and there is no cramping, you will be fine. If it is heavy and accompanied by pain - get to a hospital quick! Later in pregnancy there are two worrying casues of bleeding. The placentamay become detached from the uterus because of High blood pressure or following an injury eg a car accident. there may be little or no bleeding but the pain is intense. (Placenta abruptio) Or if the placenta is low in the uterus it may detach as the lower part of the uterus stretches. the bleeding will be painless and may vary from spotting to catastrophic. (Placenta previa) In either case, going to the doctor is not fast enough, you need to go straight to the hospital.

"Conception" means you're pregnant. Do you mean day of ovulation?

Actually, some women (myself included) may have cramps after intercourse. This usually only happens between the time you ovulate and your period starts (so, if you have a 28 day cycle, post-coital cramps will occur between days 14 and 28 of your cycle). I remember I got these terrible cramps after having sex, and I thought the same thing. But I did a bit of Googling, and it turns out post-coital cramps happen to a few women.

Cramps usually happen after sex because sex and orgasm can cause uterine contractions.

I wrote this question but to explain alittle more. I found out I was pregnant on 7/15/09. My pregnancy test was faint but it was positive. Later that night I started to bleed while urinating. Thursday I started to need a pad. Never really got very heavy. I had some cramps but nothing to really complain about. On Friday by that afternoon the bleeding had started to just be when i urinated again. Since Friday evening it has just been spotting. Brown spotting. Into today which is really nothing. Went to the er yesterday because I was worried that I didn't have a complete miscarriage. They drew blood and I still had a positive pregnancy test. The doctor had said after looking at me and when he was giving my results to me that i was just around 2 to 2 and a half weeks pregnant. To me it should never be possible to find out that early but I did. My question is since hcg levels drop rapidly why is my test still positive? Could it really have been a miscarriage? Clueless and so confused please help!!!!!!!!

If your period has come at the normal time it is unlikely you are pregnant.

there could be many reasons why your period is late, stress, illness, its best to do a pregnancy test or visi a doctor. Three days late isn't usually much to worry about just yet.

No, not really. Very, very few women don't produce the pregnancy hormone until later in pregnancy or at all, but it's very rare. Maybe like 1% of the population. Odds are, you aren't pregnant. If you're doctor said you weren't, go with that. actually yes it is possiable to be pregnant even after a neg. blood test if you feel that you are even after a neg blood test wait about a week and go get another one and see what it says. this has happened to me before and maybe happing to me again right now I am 3 weeks late and several test say no. but all signs are there. I have 3 kids and with one it took up to 2 months before urine test would pick up , with 2nd it took blood work and with the 3rd it took a ultra sound so everyone is different and so is every pregnancy if you feel you are chances are then you are just treat yourselfas if you were and see what happens, another example, my sister, she took 13 hpt with her first child all neg blood test said pos. she is now pregnant again, she again went through the hpt (why I do not know) and even blood work all neg she even had her period for 2 to 3 months the month she missed she had blood drawn again and when they did the ultra sound boy were the docs surprised she is 4 1/2 months pregnant the ultra sound was done about 1 to 2 weeks after she got a positive result on blood work. hope this help
