Lost my baby at 14 weeks.. Damn subchorionic hematoma 😞
I was diagnosed with a SCH at 7 weeks but my doc never worried or measured it despite my concerns. He actually basically paid no attention to it.Â
Last night we ended up at the ER due to some unbearable cramps and constant bleeding. Earlier that day I had a huge gush of water come out of me as if I peed myself and I was freaked at that point so I called my doctor who said no need for the ER, drink some water and take Tylenol and relax. 🙄. After that big gush of clear orderless liquid, the pain got so unreal and then my nose randomly began to bleed profusely... Like literally would not stop. Imagine a crying woman on the loo bleeding from her body and her nose with nose blood all over her shirt and legs and tears just streaming down her face. Needless to say, my fiancé saw this and was freaked and forced us to the ER.Â
When we got there they immediately gave me fluids and Tylenol for the pain. They didn't check for a heartbeat like usual but when straight to an ultrasound. After a hour of hearing nothing they did a pelvic examine in which I was informed that my subchorionic hematoma had burst (in a bad way, not the usual healing itself good way) pushing my cervix down which caused my water to break (that gush of liquid) but since my cervix wasn't open I'd been cramping because my body was still forcing the miscarriage.Â
My poor baby was completely fine Wednesday at the doc with a strong heartbeat of 160... Which as of last night with no fluids around him, only a 70 😞. I know he was fighting hard.Â
Now I'm home waiting for the miscarriage to actually take place.Â
If you have SCH and are concerned more than your doc, MAKE them do the work, monitor it. Measure it and keep track of all cramps accompanied by blood. Force them to see you if you really feel something is wrong. I'm not blaming my doc but I am upset that he wasn't as attentive as I often asked him to be.Â
This was my second miscarriage and we were due on my birthday. How perfect it would've been to have a rainbow baby as a birthday present. Please pray for me and my family. Thank you all!Â
