Hello and welcome to HCM.
Thanks for putting up your query over here.
It is not possible to have regular periods while you are pregnant.
Normal period cycle is of 24-35 days.Variation upto 7-9 days plus minus is possible due to changes in physiology of body and stress factors.
If today ,you didnt get periods it must be because of normal variation.But as you have bloating and nausea,there can be chance of prenancy if you had unprotected sexual intercourse around fertile period of your cycle.You may get HCG levels in your blood and urine tested for confirmation of pregnancy.However,if you had protected sex,chances of pregnancy are less likely.
Hope this information helps.
thanks.

Hello

Yes, It is possible to have a period after you become pregnant. Most women who do report that it is not quite like a normal period - perhaps lighter or shorter. This is usually due to implantation bleeding as the placenta attaches.

The best way to get to know whether you are pregnant or not, is to go for an Ultrasound test. This will confirm the situation.

Thanks
