I had a friend who had the same thing. She had a period and thought, oh well I miscarried. But, then she found out she was pregnant. They think that she miscarried a twin almost immediately, but the other twin implanted and was healthy. He was born 9 months (well 8 months after she found out) later perfectly healthy. But, this is only to say its not probably, but possible to be pregnant after a period. The only way to know for sure is a pregnancy test followed by ultrasound with your OB after a certain number of weeks to confirm that all the essentials are there with a healthy heartbeat. The OB might do a blood test earlier, but some will not if they don't get a positive urine test. They use the same urine test you do at home.
