Sorry you've been in hospital dan-o glad baby is doing well though

My scan today showed baby is way too small been given first set of steroids (ouch!!) More scans to follow, high chance he could be brought out early

Love - do they think he's small because of the bleed? How early would they take him? I just noticed we have the same due date. I'm not sure when my next scan will be. Last week the doctor felt around on my belly and said I have a whole lot of baby in there.

 

[LovemyBubx]

Ahh glad to hear your doing well yes I noticed we are due date buddies

When mw measured my bump it was 2cm smaller but she didn't seem worried at all.

I think the hemetoma is unrelated, sonographer said the placenta is working a bit harder to keep the blood flow to baby going & if the measurements were much lower they would have taken him there & then, I am pretty scared about next scans now I really don't want to have to leave him in hospital feel like we've been through enough
He currently weighs 2lbs 10 which was off the scale low in my notes. Decided to take vitamins again & eat slightly more in the hope it will help.

Oh he is on the small side. They think my fatty is around 4lbs. I hope he can stay cooking a little longer and add some fat to his body before he makes his entrance into the world.

Hello everyone, just some back ground. I have had 1-2 ultrasounds every week since 5+4. I see a regular Ob and a maternal specialist. The repeat ultrasounds were due to ruling in a viable pregnancy in order that I could be properly treated for diabetes 2. I was taking Metformin prior too pregnancy. It was causing nausea. I needed insulin, which I now have! Anywho everything progressed well and here I am today at 9+3.

well at my last visit 7+5 everything was good. Heartbeat went from 121 to 163 within a week. Doctor said causally that I had a small hemorrhage from the baby implanting. No worries, may experience some bleeding.

well yesterday, almost two weeks later I have a small amount of blood in under ware, it appeared to be dark. I called my doctor, she said I should be okay if im not cramping, and its not bright red blood and alot. And its not. She said my last ultrasound showed a small hemorrhage from the baby implanting itself. And that could be the cause of the spotting. She said she didn't believe its a miscarriage, but if it was there's nothing they could do and I would have to wait. Man im so scared.

when I wiped there was small amount of watery blood, not a excessive amount. Next appointment is Tuesday morning w/ ultrasound.

This morning I haven't noticed anything, yet. I'm just so scared. And for 2 days I had a migraine. Granted it could be due to my sugar levels adjusting.

Welcome Babi - if your hemorrhage is small there usually is no cause for concern. Your doctor is right, if no bright red blood you should be fine. My best advice to you is don't do too much as far as activity and no lifting heavy things and drink plenty of water. These things usually clear up on their own

Hi ladies

I had a heavy bleed last Thursday and my early scan on Friday revealed I have a hematoma to the left side of babies sac. I've done a lot of research as I'm worried about where the clot is, but can't find much information on the positioning on the clots. Could anyone shine a light

Baby was fine on Friday and we got to see the heartbeat!

 

[fluterby429]

Sorry you have the SCH. Just know that most of the time they clear up and cause no issues other than bleeding. As far as the location, you may read lots of things. What I've been told (and makes the most sense) the lower down the bleed the better. If the bleed is higher up it drains down the sac and you run the risk or rupturing the sac.

I just wanted to update here since I haven't been to this thread in a while.
My SCH baby was born on Feb. 20th during a lovely home birth and weighed over 8 lbs! I had him at 40+2.

I bled quite heavily off and on from 6-8 weeks and thought I lost him several times. I was given about a 50% chance of miscarriage from the Early Pregnancy Assessment clinic. I'm so glad to have him -- keep the hope, ladies!

 

[babifever]

Hello all, this thread is pretty quiet. But my update, I had spotting for about 10 days. It stopped like last Friday. When I went in on the past Tuesday the ultrasound tech said she didn't see the hemorrhage. Granted this was at the maternal fetal specialist. My regular ob diagnosed the hemorrhage. I feel fine.

@fernoia congrats

@hello kerrie

 

[fluterby429]

[counting]

[lanet]

Congrats counting!
I never updated either, after massive bleeding until week 17 I gave birth to 2 healthy babies on feb 11! Each 6lbs 8oz.

 

[mara16jade]

Mysteriouseye, yes... no self loving.

Stay on pelvis rest until it's cleared - that means no sex, no orgasms of any type, no working out or strenuous activity. Drink lots and lots of water. Good luck!!

 

[fluterby429]

Mysteriouseye any type of orgasm causes uterine spasm so it's best to do nothing. Like mentioned above drink lots of water.

Ladies congrats on your babies. I to have birth 4/06/15 at 37 weeks to a perfect 6lbs 4oz baby boy.

Hello, I am new to this thred...I am currently 6 weeks and 3 days with my 2nd pregnancy definitely not expected since my first will be 14 in October lol. At 4 weeks 1 day I went to the ER with heavy bleeding to be diagnosed with a SCH 3 x 4 x12 in size " don't know if that's small or big" and have had bleeding ever since then ranging from pink to clots. Last Wednesday I went in for an ultrasound and they found a fetal pole but couldn't find the heartbeat yet due to baby being too small...this is all new to me and I am such a wreck...today I have had a lot of bleeding with mild cramping...ultrasound again next Friday and blood work tomorrow to check my numbers. I a, so glad I found this forum to give me hope that everything will turn out ok!!!

 

[fluterby429]

Jars welcome to the group but sorry you had to find your way here. Read over the posts in here. It helped calm me when I was first going through it. It's such a scary thing. The not knowing about killed me but as you can see in my siggy, my little boy was born healthy.
