Advice?

On February 4th my doctor told me I have a subchorionic hematoma. Honestly, I still don’t quite know what that means (I’ve avoided google for once in my life). She told me that hopefully it would resolve itself, and if it didn’t then we’d go from there. Yesterday I was getting crampy here and there, nothing persistent. I *thought* I had a darker colored discharge but couldn’t quite tell because maybe it was the lighting, you know? Today, more inconsistent cramping, but a mixture of dull and achy to sharp stabbing. Also dark discharge, for sure. This evening I used the bathroom and there was light and dark blood on the tissue for sure. Still cramping.

* I called my OB office. The doctor on call said I could come in for a fetal heart check and ultrasound, and also bloodwork and to check my cervix if I wanted to. I live just over an hour away so for now I am laying in bed trying to relax and just monitor everything.

BUT. I am freaking out. Should I go ahead and be seen? Has anyone else had this happen? Can I wait until tomorrow? My next appointment is March 8th. Should I wait until then? I feel so helpless and lost!
