Having missed your period is more than likely one of the most reliable signs of pregnancy out there. However, some women will have implantation bleeding around the time they have their period. This is usually a lighter and/or shorter period than normal. This is why you are asked for the first day of your last regular period. Through my research, I have found few women out there who have their period when they are pregnant. This may be rare, but it does happen.

When you have vaginal discharge that does not come with burning or itching, then this could be a sign of pregnancy. That is the cervix building the mucus plug to block the opening going to the cervix. This is to protect the baby from getting any infections. You could have a slight increase in vaginal discharge. This should not burn, itch or smell.
