Is it possible to have your period while you're pregnant? i've been told yes by some women and no by a nurse..which is it?

Not possible but...: While it is absolutely not possible to have a period while you are pregnant it is possible to have bleeding while you are pregnant. The definition of a having a period is the act of shedding the endometrial lining due to not being pregnant. If you are pregnant and having bleeding it is not a period..It is just bleeding and should be evaluated.
