Unfortunately, we have a Subchorionic Hemmorhage, so now I am just really worried that I am going to loose this baby I have had no spotting, but I have been having intermittent cramps, which arn't that painful, so I suppose that is one good thing right.

I am just devastated right now, I really need all the support I can get, I am so sad.

I have heard that these things can correct themselves, but with 2 consecutive losses last year, I am just not hopeful right now.

I am seeing my Dr next Tuesday and I am sure that she will monitor me with more u/s over the next few weeks.

Now for the good news, we have a . It is beating at 130 BPM and is measuring at 6w 6d

Please keep me in ur thoughts and prayers that everything will work out for us.

Shilo's turned out just fine. I refuse to think this will be a problem. Hang in there kiddo.

Di, I'm so happy to read that you saw a h/b and the rate is good, IMHO. And we will continue to pray for you and your baby. Take care,

DeAnne

I agree with the other girls. It definitely does not mean you're going to lose the baby. Shilo was fine, and so were a number of the other girls on boards I've posted on.

It's great that you got a nice strong heartbeat. That's very important, and it's a great fetal heart rate, and shows the baby is doing well.

Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers, sweetie. Rest up and take it easy.

Thanks Carrie & Kim , u dont know how much it means to me, to have u women to talk too .

My mind has been eased alot, from all of ur comments.

Now, I just need Shilo to chime in and fill me in on what her experience was, because for the life of me, I cant seem to remember .

I remember that on u/s, they found that Shilo had a placental lake, and some spots. They just watched her by u/s, and in time, they healed.

I found this on an OB/GYN site: "Usually, a subchorionic bleed does not affect the pregnancy or the fetus. It usually dissipates on its own within a few weeks. It is quite rare for there to be hemorrhage to such extent that the hemoglobin drops so low as to compromise the fetus. Certainly, your hemoglobin must be monitored and the blood replaced to maintain a good level of hemoglobin. In the vast majority of cases, a subchorionic hematoma will not cause any effect on the baby. I would suggest that you continue on bedrest until the bleeding is scant, even if you cannot be as active as you normlly are. If there is heavy bleeding, call your doctor immediately."

Try not to worry, Dianne. We're all here pulling for you, sweetie. And feeling cramps is perfectly normal. I don't think there was anyone on our DI board who didn't have cramps! Just take it easy, and trust that everything is going to be okay.

(((BIGHUGS)))

Hi Dianne,
I am a lurker just poking around tonight. I saw your post and I had to respond! I had a subchorionic hemorage with my 2nd pregnancy. My 1st ended in m/c and I was also devastated when the bleeding started. I had so much blood and cramping, that I just KNEW I was experiencing another loss. I was 6w 2d. I had a diagnostic u/s and also heard the hb. The perinatologist told me that a)once you hear the hb, the chance of a m/c falls to 3-5% and b)a SCH isn't dangerous.
Try to relax and take it easy!

Thanks for ur reply Anny, it is very reassuring to hear the stories of others .

Luckily, I have not had any bleeding/spotting as yet and I am hoping that it continues that way .

Thanks again to everyone who has given me support

Hi!!!
I didnt get on the comp too much yesterday, but I am here today and totally understand.
Yes, mine was a placental lake, it was quite large and they were thinking that it could either a)compress on little Dante causing growth or develomental retardation, or b) seperate the placenta and cause late miscarriage/preterm birth.
I worried the whole time. But all turned out ok.
Cramping... I had pms cramping right up until about 16 weeks.... I posted/bugged everyone about this constantly, lol..... i was SO worried.
I still worry.
I watch Dante at night, when I should be sleeping.. I watch to make sure he is breathing... will the worry ever end? Probably not.
And i know you will worry the whole time, and thats ok... its the worrying part of us, the part of us that wants to preserve and protect that makes us good mums.
I remember Jant's post... She had lost the baby.... she was so devastated... BUT... there he was, little heart beating away.
I won't tell u not to worry.
Im the queen of worry, so that would be hypocritical of me....
Just remember in the end that all the worrying cant change a thing, and that in the end its up to the universe....
I personally, in my heart, with my super psychic intuition, feel that your lil bean will be super a-ok.

Shilo, I know how busy u r right now, but thank u so much for responding.

Ur right, I dont think the worrying ever ends, even when the reach aduldhood .
