We need prayers for us and the baby

Mandie16

We went to the ER yesterday. I was having some light brown spotting and had a bad feeling about it. They did a pelvic exam, drew my blood and checked my levels, and did an ultrasound.

They said that I have a threatened miscarriage because of the spotting. I have no active bleeding and my cervix is closed. My levels were good and when they did the ultrasound they measured me at 5w5d (yesterday). There is a little flutter of a heartbeat. But, they said that there is a small hemmorage underneath my placenta. It apparently didn't attach all of the way. The doctor was kind of an a$$ about it, but the nurse explained it really well.

I called the OB this morning and am going in at 415PM. Essentially, the ER said that the odds are in my favor and that this can resolve itself. Or, it can make me miscarry. I am so scared and so upset. I don't want anything to be wrong with my baby. Please pray for us.

Mandie,

My sister had this too.  I don't think it is ALL that uncommon.  She was on modified bed rest...could still teach, just had to sit down a lot until the placenta/baby was big enough to stop-up the tear.  She spotted here and there for the whole first month (at least).   

I think relaxing and no aerobic workout will help!  And your DH will need to do all the shopping

HUGS! My friend bled (heavily) the entire first trimester.  Her son is 3 1/2 now and is perfectly healthy!  (well, he has an earache right now).

Hang in there and keep us posted!

You will definitely be in my thoughts.  It was good you followed your instincts and went to the ER.  I think it's rare that they can even see a hb that early so it's good news you have a little flutter.  I also had some spotting early on (my entire 7th week) and now our 2 boys are healthy and growing.  I hope 4:15 comes quickly for you and you get some good answers.

I'm so sorry -- I can imagine how scared you must feel right now.  Keep envisioning your baby nestling in tight and the placenta attaching well, and everything resolving itself okay. 

((hugs))

You're in my thoughts.... I hope it turns out to be okay!!

I know it is scary but try not to worry! I had bright red bleeding the entire firs trimester and everything turned out fine, I had placenta previa until 36 weeks. Brown blood is better than red because it is old blood. I was told that I would know it if I was miscarrying. Good luck to you.
