Periods

How would you tell the difference between a normal period (like 4 days long with a sort of heavy flow for 2 days) and implantation bleeding

And also is it possible to have a regular period if you are pregnant? (Just asking not actually worried about anything) as I've read many cases of people saying that this has happened to them so I'm just wondering

Implantation bleeding would not last as long, as is unlikely to come at the time a person is expecting their period. Really though, it will be the person who has the period who notices that the bleeding they're experiencing doesn't look or feel quite like their period.

And no, a person does not get their period while pregnant.

And when would implantation occur if it was to occur?
