Pregnant with period - possible?

Is it possible to get a period and be pregnant at the same time?
I started what I thought was a period yesterday (14th).

Also, is it okay to have a tampon inside if I am pregnant?
I'm not sure about the period thing.
My mom told me it is possible to have a period while you're pregnant, but it's probably something to discuss with your doctor because of tubular pregnancies.
But, I have heard from many people you should not use a tampon if you're pregnant. It can cause brain damage or miscarriage.
When I was pregnant with my daughter I had what I thought was my period. It turned out to be implantation bleeding, it sounds like that's what you are experiencing. It occurs around the same time as your period, but is usually just spotting. I don't think that using tampons during early pregnancy can cause any damage, if sex doesn't cause damage than a tampon wouldn't. The baby is pretty well protected, I wouldn't use one durning the last month though, because you could cause an infection if you have lost your mucus plug.
Good luck,
