This was a private scan as my clinic is abroad. I am contacting my clinic by email, but last time unfortunately they didn’t provide much advice.
The consultant at the EPU that saw me last time (the one that told me that my babie’s heartbeat had stopped) said that if I had come earlier to him he would have stopped me taking the clexane as soon as the haematoma was found.
It’s so difficult to know what’s best and every clinic/consultant have differing opinions. Might be worth contacting the EPU again to speak with them x
I have just found out that I have two of these as my pregnancy has resulted in Twins.. Had a huge bleed yesterday (and still some) but babies are ok today still... I was so shocked as the amount of blood was like my miscarriage last year, It’s all very scary.
I am on clexane due to a clotting issue and although my nurse didn’t say that it was due to the clexane, the bleeding is probably slightly more exaggerated due to it.. She measured mine at 6mm and 10mm, it’s just an awful waiting game..
Will you be scanned again by the clinic? I phoned the EPU who are going to make an appt with me on Monday when they are actually open..
I have everything crossed for you Cat and prey it’s not a repeat of last year 🤞🏻 xxx
I'm sorry you have to go through this. I also had a haemotoma and bled from 8-12 weeks. My little girl is 5 months and currently sleeping in my arms. I know you had a loss before because of this and that must make it even more scary, but it doesn't always end badly. Did they say where the bleed was in relation to the sac? I have all my fingers and toes crossed for you but just know it does work out OK sometime xxx
So sorry this is happening to you lovely. Seems so unfair. I had a haematoma at 17weeks, it’s so scary and nerve racking. Best advise I had was modified bed rest, no lifting, lots of water to ensure uterus doesn’t cramp unnecessarily and plenty of fibre so you don’t strain.
There’s no way you can stop worrying but try to be as calm as you can. I have everything crossed for you 🤞🏻 did they prescribe any progesterone?
Yes went for my 20 week scan on Thursday and it seems to have reabsorbed so fingers crossed 🤞🏻
That’s good your on progesterone, I would try and rest as much as you can. Can you get a sick note if your working? Try to put your feet up as much as you can lovely and I really hope it resolves. When’s your next scan? X
We could also see a haematoma after two bad bleedings... I would say It was very big... I had bled twice one week ago, I was already on high progesterone (4x200 mg vaginal) but they advised me to start taking a daily injection as well. I started It on Saturday, second bleeding (the worst) happened that night, but since then I haven't bled again, so I think the extra progesterone is making a difference.
Now I am just keeping everything crossed for the bleeding to not come back: the doctor told me is like a competition between the bleeding and the sac: if the second grows faster (she said at 12 weeks we would be safe), It will sin, but bleeding again might put It at risk.
Have you had any bleeding or you just saw It at the scan?
I am not very educated on this topic - but I just want to say the biggest of congratulations on your baby and I will be keeping all fingers and toes crossed for you!
Bless you, nothings ever simple is it? I'm keeping everything crossed for you that things keep progressing as they should. Beautiful pic of your tiny bean, congratulations x
