I am 10w4d and have a factor 7 blood deficiency which is a rare genetic disorder similar to hemophilia.

I will find out more about what's going on at my appointments the beginning of April. Most of all I am worried about bleeding during delivery and post partum hemorrhage.... But we'll see what doc says in April. To top things off... My mother is not supportive of my situation and told my DH that I was going to die during delivery... Grrrr. Just wanted to vent especially since I haven't yet announced my pregnancy to many folks.
