Hi Anon,

Welcome to EmpowHer!

No. you cannot. While you may experience bleeding in your second trimester, it is not possible to have an actual period and be 5 months pregnant. Keeping in mind that a period is the shedding of the lining of your uterus along with an unfertilized egg, this eliminates that possibility.

Read more on bleeding during your second trimester here: http://www.americanpregnancy.org/pregnancycomplications/bleedingduringpreg.html

Best Wishes,

Rosa
