I went for a re-scan today. While baby had a healthy HB of 159, has grown well since the 6 week scan and I am still on track with dates, they found a subchorionic haemorrhage. The sonographer wasn't too worried because it's not bigger than the gestational sac, but it sucks. There are obviously risks i.e. miscarriage if it gets bigger or doesn't go away. I was excited and didn't expect anything negative, so mehhh!!! I have to wait 4 weeks for my first midwife appointment and 12 week scan. Another waiting game begins...
Anyone out there, who's had experience with this?
Re: *TW* Subchorionic Haemorrhage
OliveOyl, I'm curious if your sch was considered large? That sounds awful and frightening but very glad it all turned out ok.
I am pretty nervous about it still but my dr does not seem worried at all and said even the large ones almost always heal themselves. She didn't give me any restrictions or order any more scans until my anatomy scan. I'm really hoping I can convince her to squeeze another scan in for some peace of mind of what's going on in there though!!
On a side note, I have a friend who is 20 weeks pregnant and she was diagnosed with a SCH that covered 80% of her placenta and it actually just cleared itself up in the last few weeks! So that gave me hope.

I also like the idea of check ins! Maybe we can encourage each other to stop using Dr Google!
I'm definitely also one to google everything but I've tried my hardest because if I read one bad story, I feel like I'm doomed! I guess its it's comforting to know that this is quite a common issue and most all of them turn out just fine
Hopefully our SCH's will resolve shortly!! It helps seeing so many positive stories.
I know that there is a lot of differences of opinion b/w doctors regarding how to manage these things. It makes it all the more frustrating for us.
@hsteph0426 So sorry you are having to go through it again! I'm glad that you have a success story with your previous one...I would imagine that is helping the nerves somewhat.
