@sliztee@mkp0903@teamginger13@misspricklepants Thank you all so much for the kind words and encouragement. I did not receive good news this morning - there was no gestational or yolk sac on the US and the doctor decided it was best to go with a D&C this Saturday. I’m devastated, but it truly warms my heart at how kind, supportive and loving you all have been in this short time. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart - I wish you all the best for healthy pregnancies!! ❤️
@leigh_4 My heart goes out to you. I’m so sorry for your loss 💜

I just had a SERIOUS amount of blood come out of me in the middle of a meeting. My entire jean crotch is covered with blood. Went to the bathroom and a large clot came out. Left a message for my doctor but its 3PM and they are closed for the day. Hopefully its just the SCH but that amount of blood just really is alarming. Bad timing since its the weekend

@teamginger13 oh no... that’s got to be insanely stressful. Is there any way you can be seen soon? I feel like as a Canadian it’s easier to say go to the hospital, but I don’t know if that’s possible for you, or if that’s what is right to do in these situations... thinking of you ❤️
@teamginger13 oh that's so nerve wracking! Is there a 24 hr line or anything? I know you have an SCH so I wouldn't freak out too much, especially if it slows back down, but even heavy flow with clots can be normal with a SCH. However, I also don't ever think it's a bad idea to go to the ER for an immediate scan just to check on things for peace of mind. Sending you good vibes. I hope it stops quickly
@leigh_4 Take gentle care of your self and know you are in my heart and thoughts
@teamginger13 Are you part of the SCH FB group? I have found it to be pretty reassuring as lots of the women experience huge bleeds and baby is still healthy and growing. I am so sorry about the bleeding and the timing - does your RE have a pager? Mine has an emergency line and is open on the weekend - maybe yours will be able to get you in tomorrow.

Thanks guys. I talked to the on call nurse and she said they would try to get me in tomorrow morning. She’s supposed to call me back around 8 AM tomorrow. I’m not as alarmed as I was the first time bc I know now I have a SCH but a sonogram would just make me feel so much better.
@KNB1027 no but I’ll definitely look into that FB group! I could use any reassurance right now.

@teamginger13 ugh!! Hopefully it’s just that SCH, those sucker can cause a lot of bleeding. Get some rest and I’ll be thinking of you. 🤞they can get you in quickly.
So I have an appointment at 11. I’m hoping for good news. I soaked 2 pads yesterday evening but overnight it was just spotting so it seemed to have slowed down some. I’m anxious but am sooooo glad my RE got me in today so I can just know what’s going on.

Update: The doctor didn’t see a heartbeat and said the baby stopped growing at 6+2 (I should be 7 weeks today). They weren’t sure if the SCH caused it or not. So that’s it for me. I’m truly thankful for all the support I received over the last couple weeks. We have one more PGS normal embryo frozen so will try again in a couple months. I hope everybody has a very healthy and happy pregnancy and those November babies are safe. 💜

@teamginger13 Ugh. I was so hoping for good news. Please be gracious with yourself and take time to heal. I can’t imagine how hard this must be for you 💔
So I guess I'm joining this thread now. I started some very light spotting yesterday afternoon and it has been consistent, but not getting any heavier, today. Very light brown/pink. I'm 7+1 and my first ultrasound is supposed to be on Friday. I'm thinking it's probably nothing, especially since I still have full blown symptoms (with my CP and MMC my symptoms went away, I never bled/spotted). Still kind of freaked out though. My dr's office is closed because it's the weekend, and I know the ER is useless around here for this sort of thing (my friend went in with spotting and they sent her home). Hopefully it will stop before monday but if I'm still spotting monday morning I'll call my dr's office.
@teamginger13 Oh I am so sorry and my heart aches for you. Please take care of yourself and know you are in my prayers.
@eggsandwich2019 I'm sorry you're here and I hope that it stops over the weekend and that you can get in to see your doctor quickly!
