Anyone had 'periods' but been pregnant?

[Impatience]

I've heard of a few people saying they had periods but were also pregnant (one of these resulted in my partner's sister!). Having ttc now for 13 months, obviously have had all possible 'signs' with no bfp. This month signs are feeling sick which gets better throughout day and after eating, ridiculously sore boobs, high BBT, very tired. But I did get my period, although it doesn't feel entirely normal. Sorry - TMI - but it is dark red blood, a bit mucusy, rather than just bloody. And it keeps stop-starting, with a biggish bleed, then nothing for hours. Since starting bleeding boobs are less sore, but nipples feel funny. Also BBT down from 36.9 to 36.7, but usually goes down closer to 36.3 once I get period. Tests on Sat and Sun were completely negative.
Am off to get more tests, but just wanted to see if anyone knew if it was possible to have periods as am going completely mad with the am I or aren't I (again)!

Have heard on here that you can have periods and be pg. Good luck with the pg test.

With both my prgenancies i had bleeding at about times I would have had my first two periods.
With Ds1, it was later diagnosed by early pregnancy unit as an implantation bleed; some blood loss caused by the act of the egg attaching itself to the womb wall.
Hope your tests are positive

yes, i did with my dd1 til 20 weeks - a bleed every 4 weeks (v regular which my periods never are which was odd) which scared me witless esp as had lost one a couple of months before AND then started to bleed again with dd1 at exactly the same day and time as started to lose other (very spooky). but yes, it does happen. hope you get positive result i was a long time before getting pg with both mine so keep going. x

Thanks a lot for the replies. Almost sure I'm not pregnant, but there's still that bit of hope/confusion - did a digital test which said not pregnant, but when I looked at the actual strip test I could see a very faint line. So, its more waiting. But thanks again for giving me hope!

GOOD LUCK!!

wait another week and do another test then, but if the digital says "not pregnant" don't take it apart to look for lines because that will just give you false hope.
