Who has had AF during pregnancy? HELP

Ok, I know this may all just be in my head. I could swear that I may be pg. LAst week was an emotional mess, very tender breasts. Was supposed to start AF on Sat and only had a little spotting during the am. Nothing until yesterday I started spotting, then it got a little heavier. Today I have been flowing, but I'm not having any normal Af symptoms (i have endometriosis and usually have horrible cramps)I know the tenderness ect can be sign of PMS, but this month everything seemed to be much much worse and intense then ever had with PMS. I've noticed a new blue vein in my nipple and some more bumps on them as well. I've heard of women having a period while they are pg, but was wondering if any of you have had it or someone you know had a period during pregnancy. Please let me know anything!

I have heard about lots of ppl haveing there periods and then finding out there are pregnant, but the period is usally light and spotting. And is shorter then normal, Ppl have had heavy periods but what do you mean by heavy, like you are changeing you're pad every hr or so or less? Are you cramping bad? Cause if that is the cause you might be miscarring or is it normal period for you?

No, it is not heavy where I am having to change pads every hour. It is an actual flow where I have to change every 3-5 hours. I'm not cramping, and I haven't seen any clots or anything.
