Late Term and Child Loss

Weekend in the hospital...

So I just spent the weekend in the hospital. Actually I'm still here but I'm most likely going to go home today.

Long story short I had an ultrasound on friday where they saw some leftover placenta in my uterus. They scheduled a d&c immediately with the plan of getting it out and me going home that day.
Well of course things didn't go as planned and I ended up losing a lot of blood and needing a tranfusion. They also had to put a catheter/ balloon in my uterus and a cerclage to keep it in there. Good news is it appears to have worked and stopped the bleeding.

Ugh such a long ordeal and it just feels like adding insult to injury after everything we've been through! But thank god for my amazing doctor!

  • Thank you everyone! It was very scary but I'm so thankful that things seem to be going well now. I will definitely feel relieved when this is all over and I'm back to 'normal'...whatever that means. I'm starting to think that just with everything I've gone through we might wait a little longer than we thought to start trying again. I feel like I need to give my body (and mind) a rest for awhile.

  • I'm sorry for this added ordeal. I had retained placenta with DD1, I hemorrhaged at 4w pp and had to have a d&c. I also hemorrhaged immediately after delivering my son and had another d&c. So unfortunately I'm no stranger to this process and to being in the hospital.

    Just a side note if/when you do decide to try again... You should have them monitor your cervix closely. The fact that they had to put a cerclage in you may mean you need one in a future pregnancy. It would be miserable to endure another loss because of a weakened cervix. I don't mean to scare you but it can happen.
