Bleeding during Pregnancy

[LuckyMom999]

Dear expecting Moms,

I wanted to share my pregnancy experience to the expecting moms, who are worried about bleeding/spotting and early contractions. I had all the above symptoms but still gave birth to my wonderful son in 38th week. he is now 7 years old. I used to search online for similar symptons but didn't find any successful feedback. Following are the scary weeks I had experience during my pregnancy

8th Week   : I had brown spotting for almost 2 days and doctor suggested me to take rest for few days.
12th Week : I was bleeding heavily for one whole day and we went to emergency almost prepared for miscarriage.
                   Doctors checked the heart beat and surprised us that its still beating. I had an ultra sound and found            
                    that the pleasanta got detached slightly. I was asked to take bed rest for few more weeks.
                    At that point I didn't know that I will be on bed rest for the rest of the pregnancy.
24th Week:  I started bleeding. Doctor suggested me to join labor and delivery and he was positive I will deliver
                   any minute after he checked my contractions frequency. I was not prepared for this. Doctors tried to
                   stop the contractions(using some high dosage, I don't remember now). I was in the hospital
                   for almost a week. Doctors tried to stop the contractions to keep the baby for a week atleast.
                   The could stop the contractions , but I was on medication until 38th week. I stopped taking the
                    medication on my last of 37th week and I delivered on the very next day.
                   I was sure the medication stopped my contractions almost 14 weeks.

Lesons Learnt : Never get discouraged. I used to promise myself that my baby will be born on 38th week. I had to
make myself really strong mentally. I'm usually a very sensitive person and cry for petty things. But, my son made
me strong and helped me to believe how strong I can be.

Please don't ever get discouraged, believe in God and yourseld.

Wish you all good and have healthy babies:)
