    If you conceive when you're real high your baby will be born upside down.

    Your not supposed to, smoking takes away oxygen from the fetus. It's debateable, some mothers do it occasionally and that's fine. It's better to eat it in food though. I've talked to mother who had smoked weed or eaten it occasionally their babies turned out perfectly well.

    More responses from WikiAnswers contributors:


    • I had unprotected sex, then got my period about a week later and five weeks later I found out I was seven weeks pregnant. So from experience, yes, you can have your period while you are pregnant.

    • No, it is not possible to be pregnant and have your period. A period is to drain your menstrual blood, lining and eggs, which in pregnancy are needed to protect the fertilized egg or eggs. So there for you CAN NOT be pregnant and have your period. I'll explain why some women THINK they are on their period. Anywhere from 5 - 15 days after the egg is fertilized, some women notice bleeding "spotting" which they confuse with a period. In normal cases the bleeding is much lighter than a period and only last 2-4 days. So all in all, if someone tells you that you can be pregnant, and have your period, they're wrong.

    • The answer above is incorrect. First of all, it is possible to be pregnant and get your period. I know because me and a friend of mine had our periods for three months while we were pregnant. Some woman's bodies are just different than others.

    • It is entirely possible to have menstrual periods throughout pregnancy. Every woman is different. Someone I know had no idea she was expecting until the minute she went into labor - she had normal, regular periods all the way through! So yes, it's possible. And 'spotting' is USUALLY exactly that - spots of blood - nothing more. So it is very unlikely that spotting resembles a period closely enough to be confused with one, since periods are generally heavier and a continuous flow. Finally, id like to point out that during the first four weeks or so of pregnancy, because the pregnancy is not fully 'established', in a sense, parts of the womb lining can still detach and pass out as a period. So many explanations for bleeding during pregnancy! I suppose it was more the above person's attitude that annoyed me more than his or her sheer lack of knowledge and understanding of the female menstrual cycle and pregnancy.

    • YES, YOU CAN HAVE YOUR PERIOD AND BE PREGNANT. I saw it on Montell a long time ago. There are women with big enough uterus's for it to happen. The egg can go the other way. As you know, there are two tubes...Yes. I had unprotected sex about a week ago and today I got my period. I'm still going to take a test after it's over. My friend's mom and all of the girls in her family had a regular period for about two months before it stopped while they were pregnant. My sister was pregnant and still got her period a little more than "lighter". The correct answer is, Yes, You can be pregnant and still get your period.

    • It is possible and common for women to experience period like bleeding when pregnant. However, when hCG is released into the body it tells the ovaries to release progesterone which prevents menstruation. In fact, a very big reason many women do not realize they are pregnant until many weeks later is because they believe they are having a period when in fact it is really not a period. Bleeding during pregnancy may last days or throughout the entire pregnancy.

    • Yes. The doctors cannot explain why but I got my period up until 5 months and they were completely NORMAL cycles.

    • Not many women experience this but it could happen because it happened to me. I had my period on the right time and it was the same blood flow too. It also lasted the same amount of days.

    • Every woman is different. I definitely am pregnant and have had two menstrual cycles so far. I guess one would need to define period. If it is releasing an unfertilized egg, then no, it isn't possible. If the definition is that of cramps and the release of blood that saturates a maxi pad, or tampon then yes, completely possible. I would hate to add lighter than usual because from my own experience, I have had very light and very heavy "normal" flows.

    • No. You can not and will not have a period during pregnancy. There may be "spotting" which may last 1-4 days and is normal for your first child or your fifth. It does not matter. If you think you are pregnant and have "spotting" then wait a week and test.

    • It is possible for a woman to have a normal period throughout the pregnancy although it is very rare for this to occur. Lack of knowledge is what causes high doctor bills for unnecessary tests.

    • I think the issue is the technical term of what happens when women are pregnant but still bleed. It is not technically a period, such as egg being released etc. However it can feel very much like a period.

    • I think that medical facts need to be edited about a women having a period and being pregnant. They should say "yes" it can happen. I have a healthy daughter, with whom I had some bleeding and I think I am pregnant but bleeding again. Think about it, what if the 'medical people' or others say, "no way not possible", and you take some medications or over the counter drugs that are harmful for the fetus. Who will accept the blame? No One.

    • Yes, I took three tests one day and all of them said I was pregnant. The next day I started my period and rushed over to planned parenthood to find out what the heck was going on. The women there said that I could have had a miscarriage. I had to wait two weeks to take another test to find out that I was pregnant. Whoever says you cannot get pregnant and still have your period is probably does not know what they are saying.

    • I have been having what I can also best describe as a period. It may not be the correct medical terms for it, but I have mild cramps occasionally and daily bleeding. Now of course anyone who has this happen should check with a doctor, I did, and she said everything was fine and I was just bleeding. It is scary though, you are concerned for your unborn babies well being and concerned- am I having a miscarriage. Now from what I have heard from personal testimony of women I know who had miscarriages, you would not miss that. It is like labor. I am not claiming I am menstruating and pregnant at the same time. The source of this bleeding is unknown, but it is happening and it is just like when I have my period. More compassion and less insults need to be used when responding to such a delicate question.

    • I think us women have a different point of view from the medical world as to what a period is. We describe any vaginal bleeding as a period. The medical world has different definitions for vaginal blood occurrences. If you spot brown blood for two days and know your not pregnant, then the doc may tell you that was a period. If you spot for two days and are pregnant, then doc may say that isn't a period and have some medical terminology for it. The medical world has to take everything else in your life at that time into consideration as well (like on/off birth control, health problems, etc.) to properly diagnose what the bleeding actually is. I had a period (vaginal bleeding) for 3 weeks and went to the doctor to find out I'm 6 weeks pregnant. When I asked why the bleeding then, doc just said, "that sometimes happens". Maybe I should have asked what the bleeding was or meant (period or something else) but I didn't. I accepted her answer and moved on with my pregnancy. I had my daughter on time and she was very healthy. I didn't do a home pregnancy test so I can't say if the bleeding had in fact affected the HPT test results. So I think when us women ask, "can I have a period and still be pregnant?" What we are really asking is " Can I have vaginal bleeding (no matter what it is or the medical terminology is for it) and still be pregnant?"

    • I think either people who say they had a period while pregnant, either have a different definition of "period", or honestly think any vaginal bleeding can be termed as "menstruation". It is not normal, and is in fact, a BAD sign that should send you straight to the ER, if you are experiencing bleeding in early pregnancy that can be classed as moderate to heavy. I mean, your body is literally flushing out the contents of the uterus, how people can say this is "normal" and not a danger of miscarriage, must not know much about pregnancy. There is such a great difference between light spotting early on, and losing quantities of blood equal to a normal period. The majority of pregnant women who experience heavy, period-like bleeding are experiencing a miscarriage and should not listen to people who say it's normal. I guess if by "a normal period" they mean the amount of blood near the end of the period, they might be making a bit of sense. But not the kind of blood loss that is associated with the first or second day of the period, where most women are losing quite a lot of blood and uterine lining. I hope anyone who suspects that they are pregnant will just take a test and be done with it, instead of these not-too-bright people who say they don't realize until 6 or 7 months that they were pregnant! You have to be really out of touch with your anatomy to not know something is growing in there. Bottom line: you CANNOT have a real, technical, "period" when pregnant. You CAN have a certain amount of bleeding during pregnancy; but a genuine menstrual period only happens when you are NOT pregnant and your are EXPELLING THE CONTENTS OF THE UTERUS! It's not a period if you're carrying a child - and if you're bleeding, for God's sake get to a doctor and have it checked out.

    • In response. I asked 8 women if they had had this during their pregnancy, 3 of them had HEAVY FLOW monthly during their pregnancy. The most intense one I have heard, 1 woman stated she had her period(call it what you want to) heavy flow, The full 9 months, the flow lightened monthly as she approached the due date but she would never call it spotting. all blood and urine tests showed negative results. Unless you are a doctor I also wouldn't suggest giving medical advice, you can create an irrational panic. "not-too-bright people who say they don't realize until 6 or 7 months that they were pregnant" This woman I am speaking about, she didn't know she was pregnant until 6 months in. If you even knew the slightest bit about what you were talking about you would know that some women don't even show until then, sometimes even later than that. . She only knew she was pregnant because she had severe abdominal pain and was rushed to the ER for an ultra sound and that's when she found out she was preggers. Her boy is 16 and HEALTHY. I notice you also pretty much ignore all the comments previous to yours as well. Or you would have seen this tid bit of info ;"it is very unlikely that spotting resembles a period closely enough to be confused with one, since periods are generally heavier and a continuous flow. Finally, id like to point out that during the first four weeks or so of pregnancy, because the pregnancy is not fully 'established', in a sense, parts of the womb lining can still detach and pass out as a period.". It still doesn't explain it all away. As far as im concerned further study is needed. Its not clear what the problem is. Just because it hasn't happened to you doesn't mean Its not possible.

    • People keep insisting they are/have had full periods while pregnant, when this indeed, is impossible. Apart from the EXTREMELY EXTREMELY RARE *rolls eyes* cases like those shown on Montel-IT DOESN'T HAPPEN. At least, not as often as some are claiming. BLEEDING does NOT EQUAL FULL PERIOD.

    • See http:/www.bioscience.orgatlasesfertimagesfiguresuteri8.jpg for an eight week pregnant illustration. You can see how there is a uterine cavity separate from the amniotic cavity. As the baby expands, what do you think happens to the remaining uterine cavity? Could it possible expel some blood-like substance? I hate to say it but USE YOUR NOSE. Does that blood smell like menstruation? If you are pregnant, NO. IT SMELLS ALIVE. If you've ever been pregnant you know pregnancy bleeding is different from menstruation. Bleeding while pregnant starts out light pink and can progress to looking like menstruation. But the two things are different. You aren't "shedding" the entire lining. If you are bleeding and suspect you are pregnant, make sure you start taking prenatals right away. Even bed rest cannot prevent inevitable miscarriages which are usually caused by genetic defects.

    • A pregnant woman will not have a normal period. false.

    • It is not unlikely to have periods during pregnancy. Usually it is more brown in color. If you are pregnant, and you are bleeding, consult a doctor. Red blood is not normal in pregnancies and can be signs of a miscarriage.

    • Yes, early on in pregnancy you can experience your period, my mother had hers for several months and so did my grandmother and we were both happy healthy babies. But if you know you are pregnant, and you are bleeding it is ESSENTIAL you go to the doctor immediately because their could be something wrong.

    • You can have light bleeding during pregnancy and spotting yes. A normal heavy flow period is very unlikely during pregnancy but it does happen with some women.

    • Yes, but it is not called a period. There is a technical term used for the bleeding during pregnancy. Bleeding while you are pregnant is called decidual bleeding. Because your hormones raise constantly while you are pregnant it causes bleeding in some women.

    • No, you cannot. Because when you are pregnant, the embryo in attached to the uterine wall. When you have your period, the blood, and liquid would basically wash the embryo off and out! So if you think you might be pregnant, you will know if you are when you start missing your periods. If you have never had sex before, and you miss a period, don't worry. Sometimes you hormones go bonkers, and you might miss a month. But if you are virgin, and you miss more than one period, see a doctor or a gyno, because that is NOT normal. It is also not normal to have a second period in one month. Sometime, you hormones will get a little crazy and cause a 2nd cycle in the same month, but if it becomes a normal thing, see a doctor.

    • Many women can experience episodes of bleeding and spotting during pregnancy. Bleeding is especially common in the first trimester and about 30% of pregnant women experience bleeding during this time. Although fewer women bleed during the second and third trimesters, spotting is still possible and not all that uncommon. However, though this bleeding may resemble menstruation, it actually is something different altogether.

    • Actually in response to the first answer YOU can have your period and STILL be pregnant...and actually sometimes it can be healthy to have your period more often than once contrary to what most doctors say...a period is simply a way of your body cleansing itself yes it is annoying and I'm not saying that you shouldn't see a doctor to regulate your period out. but ages ago women used to have multiple periods a month as a common thing and they were actually much healthier than we are today. and maybe before you see a doctor look at your diet and exercising program... what you eat and what kind of physical activities can often determine how often you will have your periods. the healthier you eat the more regulated your period will be

    • If you are looking for an answer to this question, this is obviously not the place. These people have no idea what they are talking about, they have no medical expertise, and they don't even know how to write in correct English. Therefore, I strongly suggest that you contact a doctor, a gynecologist, or a reliable health website for answers and not the opinions of these people who think that they know what they're talking about.

    • Yes, my mother-in-law had them all the way through. Discuss with your midwife but is a normal thing so don't worry too much

    • Some women have spotting, but you should consult your doctor because it could be a serious issue (good advise)

    • No, it is not possible because your child carries the period all the way through your pregnancy but if it does happen you should consult with your doctor like the advise above mine shows because it can be something serious. And this had happened to my sister once and she had to go to the emergency room and had lost her baby but this doesn't mean it will happen to you. There is a possibility it could happen, but think positive, take a deep breathe, and see what the doctor tells you. Don't worry you and your baby will be fine; trust me.

    • Yes you can, but it can be a sign there is something wrong, you should see your doctor if you think you are pregnant.

    • No, it is not possible

    • Yes, it is possible and there are a few women that can have several periods while being pregnant. It should always be checked out by your doctor. This is why gynos have a hard time giving the mother-to-be the exact birth date.

    • It is possible... but EXTREMELY rare to have a full, normal period while pregnant. There is a thing called "spotting", as it's commonly referred to, that does occur in about 25% of women while pregnant. If you believe or know for fact that you are indeed pregnant, and there is ANY amount of bloody discharge (more than just "spotting" on a pad... or any kind of discharge at all.... SEE A HEALTH PROFESSIONAL AS SOON AS YOU CAN!

    • It's unlikely but not impossible to get a period-like event each month during a pregnancy.

    • Yes, it is possible because my aunt was pregnant and she had her period every month

    • No, because (kind of gross) the purpose of a period is to shed the uterus of its lining that was prepared in the even that a woman did become pregnant. During her cycle, if she does not become pregnant, the lining of the uterus wall is discarded in the form of a period. If a woman did become pregnant, she would be using this lining, as the uterus is where the baby would develop, so it would not be shed, and therefore no period when you are pregnant.

    • This is rare, but it does happen. Best to check with the Dr. to make sure, also to make sure everything is okay with your baby. You might be low on iron, since now you're supporting two.

    • Yes. Spotting during pregnancy is not all that unusual, and some women mistake that for a light period. Some women continue to have monthly periods, throughout the pregnancy. If you think you might be pregnant, I would suggest a home pregnancy test and/or a visit to the doctor.

    • Yes you can be pregnant and still have a period. However the period is usually lighter than normal for you. If you think your pregnant and your period is normal, then your not pregnant. But always find out if your pregnant first.

    • Yes you can get your period while you are pregnant.My sister and my cousin both had there's when they were pregnant.My cousin had her period till she was 5 months along and her child is fine.

    • Yes, some women have periods the entire pregnancy. If you think you are pregnant, get tested.

    • Yes, this is possible, it is even possible to have a couple of small periods and still be pregnant. Or if you are really early on in pregnancy there is a chance that you miscarried - go to the doctor to be sure.

    • I have always understood that a woman could have something similar to a menstrual period, in the first month (in some rare cases later). IMO the only certainty is to have a pregnancy test, home type or even better clinical.

    • No, a period is what prepares your body for pregnancy by opening the cervical wall so when you become pregnant your period stops for 9 months.

    • Yes, it is very common for some women to have their menses during pregnancy. In some cases some women can have it for 1 , 2 or even 3 months in their pregnancy. To my knowledge doctors doesn't seem to know why but it happens. However it's very important to keep all of your doctors' appointments and call if you get worry or have any questions even if you think that it's foolish. You can also Google this title (bleeding and pregnancy). I have 5 children so i hope this was helpful to you.

    • It is possible, but rare and usually extremely light and short.

    • No. Your period is your body getting rid of the unused pregnancy setup. Every month your body gets ready to be pregnant, and if you don't, it sloughs off the uterine lining that was prepared to receive sperm and host an embryo. If pregnancy doesn't occur within the month, your body dumps the arrangement and starts again, makes a new one.

    • If sperm enters and fertilizes an egg, the uterine lining is going to be used. So it doesn't pass out of the body--it stays until completion of pregnancy.

    • No, you cant because the lining in your uterus which is where your period comes from has not been broken. it supports the egg when it gets fertilized so it wont break which means no blood comes out of the vagina, no period. hope that helps!

    • No, of course not the egg is fertilized not released so you can't have one

    • You CAN have uterine/vaginal bleeding during pregnancy, but it is not "menstrual bleeding". The best way to explain this is to understand that true menstruation/ovulation occurs when an egg is released from one of the ovaries. When the egg is not fertilized, bloody uterine lining sheds and the egg disintegrates and passes through. If the egg is fertilized, it releases a hormone that prevents ANY egg from being released afterward. This is called HcG and is what is looked for in a pregnancy test. Because of this hormone, no egg will be released and ovulation will not occur. But it is very possible to have bleeding because of the hormones estrogen and progesterone and the fluctuations, so some of the unused uterine lining may shed during early pregnancy. This is similar to taking the Pill - in most pills, ovulation does not actually occur and an egg is not released, but the uterine lining still sheds. This is the main reason the Pill prevents pregnancy, because there is no egg to fertilize. There are pills that, because of the combination of hormones, the egg is still released, but then the uterine lining is thickened, preventing implantation. Back to the subject, the best proof I can give to show that ovulation does NOT occur during pregnancy (although bleeding can) is the fact that if it was occurring, then there would be an egg each month that is able to be fertilized. If this were to happen and you had unprotected sex, there would be a possibility of a second egg becoming an embryo. Although this can happen at the first moment of conception (fraternal twins), how often do you hear of someone having twins that are more than a month apart? It does not happen.

    • Bleeding in early pregnancy is very common and is generally no cause for concern. Around half of all pregnant women have a little bleeding in the early months of pregnancy. Although some of these women may later suffer a miscarriage, the majority carry on to have normal and straightforward pregnancies. Some women bleed for a few days around the time of their expected periods, especially during the first trimester of pregnancy. This bleeding is usually much lighter than a normal period, but may be accompanied by discomfort - sometimes even pain - and a heavy, dragging feeling. The medical term for this sort of bleeding is 'decidual' bleeding. The 'decidua' is the innermost lining of the uterus, the part lost during each menstrual period. Experts think that this bleeding is from that part of the decidua that is not yet covered by the developing embryo and placenta. Very early bleeding may be 'implantation' bleeding rather than decidual bleeding. Implantation bleeding happens about two weeks after conception, when the fertilized egg reaches the uterus and embeds in the soft lining. Special cells surrounding the egg burrow deep into the lining, almost like a seed putting out tiny roots. This is the start of the placenta. Some women loose a little blood when this takes place. Implantation bleeding rarely lasts for more than a day.

    • Okay well about the blood smelling comment I just have to say yes there's a difference in the smell the bleeding during pregnancy smells more like metal or iron which in fact is in your blood and your period blood smells like regular blood but with less of the iron smell to it and in fact I have seen a women (my aunty) had gotten her period as she called it for 5 months during pregnancy with my cousin she had cramps back pains upset stomach all the exact same symptoms as a period and my cousin is healthy and a no miscarrying or anything so Ii don't know what to say on this whole topic maybe everyone's right and wrong at the same time everyone is different all doctors have different opinions on this kind of thing unless they did more then 100 women in this study then results are never definite.

    • The symptoms of pregnancy and period are very similar, that is why most people are not sure if you are pregnant or not until you miss your period and take home pregnancy test etc. It is not possible to have a period while pregnant. if you see some spotting, you should call that implantation bleeding if you are pregnant.

    • Yes it is possible to have bleeding similar to a period that is not an actual period.
