High-Risk Pregnancy

If you had an amnio...

were you bruised at the site of the needle and sore for a few days after. My friend had one done last Wed. and is bruised and still sore to the touch...she asked me to post and see what you ladies said. Thanks!!

Re: If you had an amnio...

  • Hmmm... I had one during my 2nd pregnancy but don't recall bruising or feeling anything of the sort.
    Nutmeg, cilantro, sage, mint, thyme... these are a few of my favorite things! Visit The Nest!Visit The Nest! We have four children; one left us too soon.

  • I had a little bruise, but i bruise WAY easier then I ever did before i got pregnant.

    Even when i do a blood sugar test I bruise now, and that's just a pin prick to the finger. 

    It's probably a similar situation. You can have some uterine cramping, which is why they give you a script for medication to help relieve it if you get it... but I never had to take any of the pills.

  • I had a bruise after my abdominal CVS for about a week, and it was tender.  I am a bruisy sort of person, though.  No other issues, it healed just fine.

  • Not really bruised, but you can see where the needle went in.  Was a tiny bit sore (and very cautious) for a couple of days, but fine other then that.  I didn't touch the area around the hole because my doctor told me to stop rubbing my belly (when she saw me doing it after amnio).  Hope your friend is well.
