Subchorionic bleed anyone??

ravenmama · November 2009

I had an early US at 6 weeks because by betas were high, so they wanted to r/o multiples again. On that US, the tech found a subchorionic bleed. She told me not to worry to much about it. I had another routine US today. Today the tech told me that the bleed looked "different" than last time. When I asked her if it was bigger or smaller, she just repeated "different". Has anyone else had this? When did it resolve?

I had one at 12 weeks with DS. I bled like I had a very heavy period for a day or so when it burst. I spotted for 4 weeks after that. At my 19w ultrasound they couldn't see it anymore.

GL to you.

So far, I've only had a little bit of brown spotting. No heavy bleeding at all. So, do you bleed heavy when the thing is resolving? Is it a good or bad sign that I'm not really bleeding? Sorry for the dumb questions and I really appreciate your reply.

Honestly, I don't know. What I experienced what waking up to period like bleeding and thinking I was m/cing. They diagnosed the SCH with an ultrasound in the ER when I went in.

Since you know ahead of time that you have one, I can't say what it means for you, sorry. But brown blood means old blood, so it's possible you had a small SCH and it's just leaving you slowly.

But, I would still go get checked out if you do start to bleed more or red. Just to be on the safe side.

But I do know there are others who have had this and have healthy LOs now, so keep your head up.

I have one, and it has yet to resolve itself. Sometimes they do not resolve and you either bleed them out, or sometimes they move like mine did. When I was 7 weeks it was close to the cervix, and at my 20 week U/S it was at the top of my uterus.

I had an u/s at 8 wks, and they found 2 small subchorionic bleeds. My dr. told me that it should be fine since they are small, and I may experience some spotting, or they can also just get re-absorbed back into the body. I have not had any bleeding or spotting at all. I was extremely nervous when they found the subchorionic bleeds, but I went back to the dr at 10 weeks, and they were able to hear the baby's heartbeat of 170 through the doppler!

I had a bleed like this with my last pregnancy. I woke up in the middle of the night bleeding and thought I was having a miscarriage. An ultrasound showed that it was a subchorionic bleed. I bled off and on until it resolved. My understanding was that it could either be abosorbed or you will bleed. HTH

This. I just had an ultrasound today b/c of a small amount of red blood yesterday and brown spotting since. They told me that I may keep spotting and/or my body will reabsorb it. She said if it was going to affect the pregnancy, it most likely would have done so by now.

GL!
