Listen to me clearly: you cannot have a period while pregnant. If you are bleeding, it could be a sign of something that needs immediate medical attention. Get off the internet and call your doctor right now.
Honestly, you cannot have a real menstrual period if you are pregnant. Some light spotting or implantation bleeding can happen, but if you are experiencing bleeding, please check with your doctor to be safe.
I had a tiny bit of spotting in my first month which I mistook for a light period, but my doctor cleared up that it wasn't. Please don't assume it's normal; if you are bleeding, get an ultrasound done to be absolutely sure.
My tracking app explained that once pregnancy happens, the uterine lining doesn't shed, so you can't have a period. If you have a positive test but are bleeding, please contact your doctor immediately to rule out any issues.
During our IVF journey, we were told that any bleeding after a positive test is a critical symptom. Please do not ignore it thinking it is just a period. Call your doctor immediately and rest as much as possible.
Actually, medically speaking, a true period during pregnancy is impossible. Sometimes there is bleeding due to hormonal changes, infection, or other complications, so it is highly recommended to get checked by a gynac immediately.
