I had one on my first scan at 12 weeks and by the time i had the sex scan at 20 weeks it was gone the doc told me to go on pelvic rest which means no sex or heavy lifting until its gone just rest alot and u should be fine

I have one behind my placenta. They call it a sub chorionic bleed or partial placental abruption. I'm 20 weeks and have had it since very early on. They were very concerned in the begining but my doctor said typically if its going to cause issues it will be early in the pregnancy. I've had to be on bed rest the entire pregnancy bc the bleed will randomly start back up and ill have a gush of blood. They also told me most people will absorb the clot and it won't be an issue. Mine has yet to absorb but I am hopefull that me and baby will be fine. Good luck!

Yes, I had one at exactly 18 weeks as well. I basically started taking it easy from there on out. Resting as much as possible and no heavy lifting. They checked a few weeks later and it had been absorbed.
I hope it works out for you.
