Heavy bleeding during first trimester in twin pregnancy

I've had a rough couple of days, and I am currently on bedrest after heavy bleeding.  Ultrasound showed a medium size blood clot but the sacs with the babies were still inside.  My doctors are taking a wait and see approach but I am really concerned.  Anyone out there have this happen and still deliver healthy babies?

Re: Heavy bleeding during first trimester in twin pregnancy

  • I had bleeding (ranging from light to heavy) from week 11-15. My doctor never found the source but wasn't concerned because the babies looked great. I now have two healthy baby boys! Hang in there. It's terrifying but if your doctor isn't concerned try to relax. Easier said than done.

  • Yes! In my case baby b was not looking very well around 7 weeks and had no heartbeat. I was told it would probably expelled and to be prepared. About a week later I had very heavy bleeding and assumed that is what is was. Well, it turned out it was a blood clot which caused the heavy bleeding and b was there with a nice heartbeat! Blood clots aka subchrionic hemorrhage occur in many pregnancies and usually will resolve itself without any harm to the baby(ies). It is scary but hang in there and I hope it passes quickly and harmlessly.
