My test is positive but i had some light bleeding around the time my period was due and now im confused. Is it possible to still get periods while pregnant or is this something else? planning to check with my doc but wanted ur thoughts.
You wont get a true period while pregnant. Light spotting can happen for some, but please dont brush off any bleeding. I had spotting and got it checked just to be safe, and Im glad I did. Always inform your doctor.
Technically no, you cant get a real period once pregnant because the cycle stops. But some women get light spotting in early pregnancy which they confuse with a period. My doctor said any bleeding should still be reported, so dont ignore it.
No, periods stop during pregnancy. Some early bleeding or spotting can occur for various reasons and its not the same as a period. Best to let your doctor know about any bleeding so they can check everything is fine.
Actual periods, no. What can happen is spotting, especially early on, and that can look like a light period. But heavy bleeding is never normal in pregnancy, so if youre bleeding a lot, call your gynac immediately.
