It wouldn't be called menstruation if you are pregnant while you are having it. It would be called 'spotting' or 'break through bleeding'. Menstruation is part of a cycle. Bleeding during pregnancy is quite common, however it shouldn't equal as much as an actual period.

If you are pregnant and have any bleeding at all, please discuss it with your doctor.

Techincally no. Actual "mesntruation" caused by ovulation ceases once your pregnant. We do not ovulate when pregnant and shedding your lining is caused by ovuation and it cannot sustain itself any longer. What you can have is still some light bleeding and spotting but it is no way comparable to a regular full and it is then I would be alarmed.

Please try and make only 1 topic since you are asking pretty much the same thing in all your posts.

unsure
my Husband and I have been trying to get pregnant for awhile and I feel like I might be pregnant, however I started my period but it is extremely light and it is day 3 now and I don't feel like I am menstrating and it is a week early. I have been having regular periods, that are spot on every month.
I didn't have this issue with my first baby though. could I still be pregnant?

If you are bleeding a week before your period is due and it doesn't feel like menstruation to you it's possible that you are just experience first trimester spotting/light bleeding, which is really common and doesn't always mean you are having a miscarriage. So yes, if you were pregnant, you probably still are.
