Lots of blood/Clotting= trip to ER, babies are ok though

So I spent yesterday afternoon in the ER because I was leaving to have a late lunch with a girlfriend and had to pee. When I sat down to pee and MASSIVe gush of blood came out of me in bright red color. I sat there for a moment in disbielf beccause I had texted my husband about 2 hours earlier that I was having one of my best days in a while. I had no cramps or pain what so ever! Just tons and tons of blood. Then this huge clot the size of a golf ball feel out and I about lost it, I thought for sure I had just lost the babies. I called my husband told him to meet me at ER and had my girlfriend rush me there. I filled an overnight Pad in 5 min flat. The ER rushed me back and I told them I was 8 weeks with triplets and they got me all situated quickly within 20 minutes they had drawn blood and were doing the ultra sound. My husband arrived just as they started the ultra sound. The Tech said she saw 3 strong heart beats and the sacs were fine. 3 babies were still in there, but there was a mass in my vaginal cavitie. Of course I heard mass and started freaking out. She said to calm down and that it was a clot, that would pass shortly.....sure enough I got up about 20 min later to use the restroom and 3 very large clots fell out, when I saw large I mean 2 the size of golf balls and one the size of a baseball. But after that the bleeding slowed and since has stopped. My dr & the ER have no idea why this happened or what caused it, but they all agreed that if babies are ok I'm ok........has anyone out there had this happen? I'm terrified that it will happen again.

  • Wow what a scary experience.  I'm so sorry you had to go through that.  I've never had any experience with clots of that magnitude.  I'm glad that your babies are okay!

  • Oh my goodness. So glad you are ok, but how terrifying! T+Ps are with you and those babies
  • How scary, glad all was well though. I've had clotting and spotting with each pregnancy, the first time I had my cervix cauterized, the second time they did nothing for me since the baby was fine.

  • Thanks ladies, I forgot to mention they did an exam and the cervix was closed so that's great news, but I'm just wondering where the blood came from! You'd think drs would know lol!

  • Here's what happened to me... Today I started bleeding, just a bit at first, then some more with small clots, now it is subsiding. I called my midwife and they did bloodwork and my levels are a low 138. They asked me to come back on Thursday for more bloodwork, but I am having a hard time remaining positive. I have 2 healthy sons and never encountered this during pregnancy before. Anyone else have this happen? What are your levels at 5 weeks? Should I give up all hope? Glad you have a happy ending, I so desperately want that for my baby too!
  • Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry you had to go through that. So awesome that the babies are ok though.

  • Yea I think you had what I had and what she's referring to, subchorionic hematoma. I bled really bad the other day w/clots. Dr. said when the baby attaches it creates blood and that's what causes the SCH. The baby was still there with a strong heartbeat. She said I may bleed again but not to worry unless it's a lot. I followed up with my Dr. yesterday and the baby was still there and growing! I know it's scary but thankfully the babies are ok! Hugs!

  • Ugh, so scary. I'm happy you and your little ones are ok!
  • Glad you and your babies are fine. My friend is pregnant with twins and she had a LOT of clots and blood in the first few months of pregnancy. She is pregnant now at 34 weeks without any issues. I hope you don't get any more scares!

    Baby BOY is due May 23, 2014!

  • Wow, how scary! I've been surprised this whole time that doctors don't yet seem to really understand bleeding and spotting in early pregnancy, outside of a few obvious causes.
