I was also recently told that I have a subchorionic hemorrhage. I'm very worried, this is or first baby. From the research I've done, it sounds like most times the hemorrhage gets transformed into your body by week 20 or so. I wish you the best of luck.

Just take it easy and no sex until the Dr clears you. I know its extremely scary no one ever wants a complicated pregnancy. Like i said earlier, I had awful bleeding for 12 weeks and my daughter was born very healthy. SCH's are actually very common and it's better to get them in early pregnancy then later in pregnancy. The risk of a miscarriage due to a SCH is actually quite low when detected in early pregnancy.

thanks I feel a little better hopefully the baby they did say is growing from my last ultrasound that I got at 9 weeks and now I'm 10 weeks and 5 days I'm just scared and it is my fourth pregnancy & I wasn't so scared at the beginning you're excited I should say what I've learned to be excited you don't have a three year old you thought that maybe he would actually have somebody to grow up with because the older children are going to be out the house in five years old and then I told my mom and she told me God Matt works in mysterious ways and maybe he didn't want me to have this baby sure that made me feel wonderful

I'm scared and nobody will help me or see me because I don't have any insurance I'm in the process of getting state insurance approved the doctor say I might hate self-pay patients and they won't see me unless I have and their medical insurance or I put a deposit down and I don't have that kind of money I just don't want to lose this baby and I'm really scared this is my fourth child has never happened but I go to return with all of them because I have diabetes and I get really high blood pressure they don't seem at all concerned that I'm a doggie day care specialist and Russell 200 pound dogs everyday I just put a hundred forty pound sheepdog that was extremely overweight in a bathtub in wash them up

This is actually my second pregnancy with a sch. Each doctor is different. My first doctor was very concerned and put me on pelvic rest bed rest and progesterone suppositories. The doctor I'm seeing with this pregbanxy doesn't seem all that concerned and just has me on pelvic rest and "take it easy" rest.Hematomas are kinda hard to explain though bBC they are literally all different. Feel free to message me if you need to talk or need some support :)

I had one with my daughter. Most times it's okay and you're not at a very high risk for miacarriag. A sub chorionic hemorrhage is when the sac has a small seperation from the uterine lining. Sometimes it causes spotting to even heavy bleeding. I had bleeding worse than a period from week 7-19. You will have more ultrasounds to monitor it to make sure its getting smaller not bigger. In most cases, the resolve on their own by 20-23 weeks. Also, most times it does not cause and fetal development issues for your baby.
