No: There are many different causes of bleeding during pregnancy such as threatened miscarriage, partial separation of the placenta and even infection or inflammation of the cervix. This may mimic a menses but is not considered a period. If you have bleeding during pregnancy you should contact your md.

Could be: Get a blood test for HCG level and repeat it in 2-3 days. In a normal pregnancy, the level should double. If it falls the pregnancy is in jeopardy. Wish you good health and a health baby!
