My friend took a pregnancy test and it was positive. So she went to the clinic to make sure that she was. She went back to the clinic because she started her period. the doc there said that there is nothing wrong and that it should only last 2 days.
Is that true??

Little confused as to what all took place a what was said. So the pregnancy test was a false positive?

Okay lets see.
she took a preg. test and it said that she was pregnant. She went to the clinic and they said she was pregnant also.
(so she is pregnant.)
then she got her period, and went back to the clinic, the doc. said that it it was okay, that she still had the baby. and that the period would only last 2 day.
any clearer??

Quite so. TY
So is it possible that she's pregnant and had a period? Yes it happens.

It's light bleeding/spotting that can happen during the first trimester. After her last period finishes, she shouldn't have anymore. It's perfectly normal.

thanks helms!
okay, so she should only have one spotting thing through out the whold pregnancy?
I'm really scared for her. She just turned 15 about a month ago, and has really no clue whats going on. So I would like to be of some help.

She should. If she does continue to spot from time to time, it could be a warning sign that there may be something wrong with the pregnancy.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention~
There are actually many reasons for a bit of a bleed early in pregnancy, and rarely, throughout pregnancy.
Mostly, in early pregnancy, spotting is not uncommon. As long as it is only spots, and that it stops it should not be a sign of a problem. Any saturating of pads or pain (cramping) is more of a problem sign. However, many times the pregnancy does not end in miscarriage every time there is heavy bleeding, sometimes the bleeding resolves and the pregnancy continues.
Does this help?

P.S. Helms' and my 1st Anniversary is in 2 days!

okay, so if she starts to bleed real hard, It doesn't mean that she lost the baby??
Not necessarily...
but she does need it checked, to make sure everything is working okay?
If she starts to bleed that much, yes. If not, everything is probably fine, like they said.
Yes, I am excited. I can't believe it has been a whole year either! We are going sailing on Sunday, a great day!

I was thinking the bleeding might be a miscarriage. At her age, they might not be a bad thing. How many weeks is she?

Break through bleeds are possible during early pregnancy. Although, if she's experiencing pain, you should make sure she hasn't miscarried

Miscarriage is a sad thing... Having PCOS, I know that if I try to have a baby and succeed in conception, I have a high chance at miscarrying... And then I hear about people abusing their children and aborting their unborn and I think why are they allowed to have babies and not someone who can't even have them and would make a wonderful, loving mother like me?

Check your dates.. this was 3 months ago.
If dates aren't showing in the threads go into your "preferences" and set the time/date format.
