subchorionic bleed

Aaargghh!!  I had blood running down my thighs at 4:30 this morning.  Not a good way to start my day.  Luckily it has stopped for now.

Just got back from my reg OB and a curbside visit to my favorite MFM.  I have a subchorionic bleed and am on strict bed rest through Sunday.  The good news is that there are still 2 babies, 2 heartbeats and they both grew from last week.

I'm used to seeing high risk patients; I'm not liking being one of them.  This is indeed no fun.  I am a much better doctor than I am a patient.  But this too shall pass and off I run to the couch (err walking slowly).

    I had this at about 7 weeks to 8 weeks and it was brown spotting.  It turned out to be a SCH and not near the babies.  It dissolved on its own eventually.  I was told to take it easy until the spotting stopped.  Try not to worry and relax.  The fact that you saw two heartbeats is a great sign, take care.

    How scary! Hope it's a totally uneventful weekend for you and everything is fine by Monday.  Take good care of yourself and your precious cargo.

    What an awful way to start the day! Glad things are going better, and that you got some reassurance today. I had a SCH that actively bled from 8 to 10 weeks, and it was the longest two weeks ever! Best wishes for you and stay on that couch! (And drink lots of water, too, but I'm sure you know that.)

    Hang in there, Dr. MoM!

    I have been fighting it for almost 8 weeks now. I've had 4 major bleeding episodes -- bright red, murder scene type of thing with clots -- starting at 6w/5d and had last one on Christmas Day at 13w -- that was fun. Brown bleeding in between. Each time I rush to my Dr. or to ER expecting the worst, but the babies are always doing just fine and apparently not affected by where the SCH is located. I've just been given instructions of bed rest until the red stops each time, then no lifting over 10# and "take it easy" after that.

    I must admit I'm getting a little spoiled by all the ultrasounds and follow-up visits! Just had a "normal" Dr. visit this week and they only listened to the heartbeats ... I felt "cheated". LOL!

    Just think positively. Good luck to you.
