subchorionic hemorrhage
Has anyone here done any research on subchorionic hemorrhage in the first
trimester? Apparently, I have one. It's clinically silent (there were no suspicious symptoms like vaginal bleeding or whatever) and was detected incidentally during the nuchal translucency scan. The perinatologist said it was "small," and called it "an incidental finding with no association with pregnancy loss at all," and said to go about my normal routines and try not to worry because it was insignificant. Of course, my response was not to not worry but rather to worry and try to do some research. I'm not finding much to support what he said, though, and I'm making myself more worried. Anyone have any thoughts? -- hillary israeli vmd http://www.hillary.net "uber vaccae in quattuor partes divisum est." not-so-newly minted veterinarian-at-large |

Anyone have any thoughts? I had one in my last pregnancy, discovered at week 10 when I began bleeding and cramping. I was convinced I was MCing, but it was the subbchorionic hemorrhage. I spotted for the next 6 weeks or so, and the baby was fine. Meanwhile, I made myself nuts reading about it on the net, because there was plenty of information out there that scared me quite a bit. My midwife didn't make a real big fuss about it. Initially she recommended pelvic rest, and when it kept bleeding she reco'd even less activity and to cut down on nursing. Sorry if this post isn't all that helpful, but at least I can offer reassurance that even with bleeding, my daughter was absolutely fine. I did have other complications later in the pregnancy, but everyone believed them to be unrelated. Nancy |

Well, mine was found during a u/s at 11 w 2 d, which is obviously first trimester. The doctor said it was an insignificant finding of "just some bleeding which occurred here," to which I replied "you mean it's a subchorionic hemorrhage?" and he said "exactly," - so I assume it's NOT retroplacental, but I would have to see his actual referral letter to my OB to be sure. I was so scatterbrained at the time, I'm ****ed i didn't ask about it. I am trying not to worry though since he said it was nothing and I haven't had any cramping or bleeding. -- hillary israeli vmd http://www.hillary.net "uber vaccae in quattuor partes divisum est." not-so-newly minted veterinarian-at-large |
