Hi ladies,
I'm trying to see if I can find someone who has gone through any of the complications I've just found out I am having. Maybe some advice, or what to expect, or what happened when you had it? I'm really nervous and stressed about it all, so any support is welcome.
First things first. My 2nd child, DS, was born 8 weeks early due to a placental abruption. I was only recently informed as to how rare this is. I went to a high risk OBGYN this time and he did some extensive blood work to try and find out why it had happened. So far we've found out:
Low Thyroid Hormones - I read that this could be very dangerous for baby.
A genetic mutation that causes bleeding during pregnancy (I didn't have any bleeding with DD and only bled with DS the night he was born).
They said that 2 of the other tests came back with abnormal results, but could be caused just by hgc, so they re-took those.
Has anyone had any of this? I don't know what to expect. I've had a miscarriage before (interestingly enough, the thyroid thing can cause miscarriages) and I'm terrified that I'll lose this one.
