My Mother Had a Normal Period During Her Entire Pregnancy... Posted: 09-20-07 13:33pm


And I have talked to numerous women who said that they also had their periods during most of their pregancy. It was a dangerous pregnancy but I was born without any health problems. I think I may be 18 weeks pregnant, but my period is still relatively normal. Its a little unusual with dates, how long it lasts, and strange flows (ie)heavy/light. I want to know is there anything I should be worried about? I have yet to go to a doctor...I know this is a stupid move but I am having a hard time believing that I really am pregnant, because I still have periods. But everything else and my body tells me that I am. Is there anyway that the tests are wrong?

sometimes it happens. My sister didn't miss a period for ages and when she went for a scan when she thought she'd be 8 weeks she was actually 18 weeks. I agree with Suzy, you should go to a doctor just to make sure that everything is ok

At 18 weeks pregnant, you should have loads of pregnancy symptoms at this point. Your breasts would have ached, grown at least one bra size, etc. If you've taken tests and they are negative, I'd be inclined to believe you are not pregnant. But, like Suzy said, go see a doctor. There are a million reasons to know you are pregnat (if you are) and no reason NOT to know if you are. Good luck!
