Can you have your AF and be PG still?

I am currently on my period which came later than normal. (Sorry to be discriptive here) It isn't normal in consistancy and seems to be ending in 3 days not lasting the normal 6. I have taken all of my pills this month like clock work, but last month was another story.

This isn't the best time bc my boy (I use the word loosly) and I are just wierd right now. We are on again off again.... And right now it is off again. The last time we did have sex was on Oct 29th. Which I beleive you count from the first day after your period ends, so that would have been the 14th day I think.

I had really bad cramps last week, which is incredibly abnormal for me. I couldn't even stand up. And for the first time in months my breasts haven't hurt really bad.

I can't eat more than about 5 bites of any meal without getting heartburn and feeling sick, and my anytime my roommate cooks it makes me really sick and want to puke. At night when I lay down to sleep I also feel sick.

Can anyone shed some light on this? I am about to lose my mind! I feel like I should wait to test til Monday.

I'm asking myself the same question. I did some searching and I heard that you can have your AF and still be PG. Last month I had my period, but I felt so weird after it was over. I was bloated, had a heavy feeling in my stomach, was full when I ate very little. I even felt weird feelings in my stomach too. Had back pain, leg pain, and hip pain. Then just started to urinate a lot about a couple weeks ago. And my sleep wasnt normal. It was like I was having insomnia, which I read can happen with some women.

And now, I'm having my period again. But I'm even more tired than normal. I've been sleepy all day for the past couple of days. When I've gotten enough sleep. This period started a day late, when it always starts on the third Wednesday of every month. It's weird. I dont feel the symptoms as bad as I did. But I'm thinking it's because of my period. When it's over, they'll probably strike again. I'm going to test in the morning. So if it's a positive, I'll definitly fill you in!!!

With my situation, it's screwed up too. The guy I messed with, we're not together, but I like him. He likes me too, but now it's like he's pulling back. I dont know what's going on in his world. If I ended up pregnant, I dont know how he would react. All I know is, I will be keeping it.
