I suffered a massive sch bleed at 6 weeks. I passed many massive clots and was told I had a miscarriage. I bled for about a month thereafter. At a routine check up it was discovered I have not miscarriage after all. I'm 32 weeks pregnant now.
@@moniqueguarinoo hi Monique how are you doing? Is your baby ok? I’m 5 weeks and having cramping and bleeding since yesterday. Going to see the doctor today. I’m very much worried.
My wife experienced bleeding last weekend we were terrified. We went to emerge expecting the worst however the babys heartbear was strong and the dr said that its a normal healthy pregnancy. A wave of relief filled our heart. Were at 9 weeks now 🤞
I’m 10weeks I had a gush of pink discharge after my husband and I had sex. Shortly after about 30mins or so, it was bright red fresh blood. (today is 1/31/2023) we went to the Er immediately this past Sunday and they did an Ultrasound scan and explain to us I had a SCH.. they explained everything to us. My vitals were good, the baby heart rate was great and during the ultrasound I saw the baby moving around 🥰 But I was still very scared being that this is our first child together and we were trying to conceive for 3 months prior to becoming pregnant. Since Sunday the ER visit, I’ve have a dark brown discharge that is slowly subsiding associated with occasional mild cramps(which could also be growing pains). We have an appointment this Thursday with our OB to make sure everything is still progressing properly. Send us positive vibes 💕💕 and to the mommies who’s experiencing the same thing may god bless us all and give us perfect peace and healthy babies!
Im also here with the same problem sinds 7 weeks now im in 11 weeks. Im pregnent with a twins my last child of 4 is 10 years old. I never experience this before. Im afraid but i pray en hope it goes well. Love to you all. God shall see us treu ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks so much for this video. I was in hospital yesterday at 7 weeks pregnant because I’ve got a sch - I didn’t know and thought I was having a miscarriage with the amount of blood and cramping. The sch has unfortunately got bigger than 2 days prior, but the baby looked good and it’s heartbeat was normal. I’m praying for a happy outcome!
This actually happened to me and I was told I wasn’t pregnant and later found out I was pregnant at 11 weeks via vaginal ultrasound. I didn’t get a positive home pregnancy test until my 12th weeks. I had a boy.
From my personal experience, I would recommend anyone with hematoma to rest/ take it easy. I had a hematoma, doctor told me there's nothing I can do about it, and definitely no need for bed rest. Unfortunately, at 18 weeks we lost the pregnancy. Now I am pregnant again, I had hematoma again, we decided- this time - no risks! I went on bed rest at 14 weeks and thank God, at 20 weeks it totally desolved.
Sending strength to women and couples going through this. In my case I numbed my emotions and couldn´t fully connect with or enjoy the pregnancy in first -second trimestre. I just willed everything to get better. This was my first pregnancy at 37/38 years old. We planned and prepared for pregnancy and to our relief, it happened within 2 months. I had implementation bleeding which was quite heavy, I actually assumed it was a slightly early period. Later at 7 weeks pregnant after a sudden small bleed, a SCH was diagnosed. It lasted 4 months. And included about 4 trips to the ER. Sometimes heavy bleeds (gushing tap) and clots (larger than the size of a fried egg) would happen out of nowhere. It was traumatic. Each time I had no cramps and the heartbeat was fine and cervix tightly closed. For months I rested as often as possible and moved incredibly gently, slowly and carefully. The third trimestre was better, it had completely gone away. I could go for gentle hikes again, swim a little, and felt more at ease to become emotionally connected and more hopeful about my growing baby. I went on to have a healthy baby by elective CS at 39 weeks. The truth is so many families have traumatic fertility journeys, pregnancies, and or births. Just take it day by day. I´m just about ready now to try for my second one and hope whatever the journey, the outcome will be a healthy baby, and if not learn to accept that too. So much more research and study is needed in the area of pregnancy and more education and support should be provided. We have a long way to go. It´s great that more videos are being put up about this. In 2019 when I had mine, I feel like there was much less info available about SCH online and on youtube. Kudos also to all those who share as I think that´s what helped me not feel so alone when I went through mine. It also helps to know someone went through the same or a severe situation and things got better. It´s temporary, things will get better.
Thank you for sharing. I started bleeding from week 7 till now week 15, still small bleeding every day. Sometimes heavy bleeding out of no where. I have a girl aged 3 almost, now I am carrying a boy, I hope everything turns out to be fine. Keep praying every day
I’m so glad that there is more information out there about this. I had them in 3 of my last 4 pregnancies found on ultrasound. I actually never bled and was made to feel like I was almost certainly going to miscarry all three times. I had all three kids between 39 and 40 weeks totally healthy and kind of feel like I was made to feel fearful unnecessarily. Mine completely reabsorbed by 20 weeks. These were all in the last 8 years but I feel like public information about SCH has come really far. It’s encouraging and I really appreciate this content.
I’m 39 with 4 children and had no idea that you could bleed without it meaning a miscarriage until this happened to me a few days ago and I learned in a birth group about sch. I hope my story in that group will reassure anyone who it happens too as you have me
@@catherinenakibombo7322 yes they either bleed out or reabsorb without any medication. There is currently no approved medication proven to help with SCH. All four of mine reabsorbed over time (2-11 weeks).
I am soo glad I ran into you Dr. Perez! I’m in my first pregnancy and because of my age group, i am feeling like i’ve been in purgatory since my i’ve first started bleeding. I was told in my first ultrasound that i was 5 weeks, when the following week I started to bleed brown then all of a sudden i had a day that was heavier and i was on day 7 or bleeding. As you can imagine i freaked out and went to the ER , and they said that I was actually showing 5 weeks. I was told at the ER that if the previous ultrasound was correct, then it may show signs that the baby is not growing and it may not be a viable pregnancy. My heart broke into a million pieces. They sent me to outpatient to a local OBGYN and they began testing for the hormone levels to see if that statement was true. Yesterday, I received the good news that the baby is growing! I’m inly sharing this information here in case any other mother to be ever runs into these situations at the emergency room! Make sure you get second opinions and stay as positive as you can be! Much much love and thank you dr. For putting this very helpful video! ❤❤❤
Im 9 weeks pregnant and my bleeding started from brown spot to light red but light bleeding. Just wondering if you feel pain or sudden pressure on your right abdomen? Thank yoy and have a great day
Thank you so much for this video. My wife is 8 weeks pregnant and had 3 smaller bleedings in the last 2 weeks and it makes us go crazy, next check with the doctor is in 2 days, hoping for the best.
I’m 11 weeks today and I went to the ER last night for a HUGE gush of blood. I thought for sure I was miscarrying. I had no cramps though which gave me a shred of faith. I went back for an ultrasound and they saw a healthy baby measuring a day ahead with a heartbeat of 170. They saw a “sack” of blood and the doctor explained that everything looked great, just had a hematoma.
Exactly same experience! I’m still 7 weeks and went to ER. After scan they say baby is fine however I’m on bedrest until I stop getting discharges. I bled a lot and as soon as those hematomas came out bleeding stopped.
This video just gave me so much closure I lost my son a year ago to this I was 20w pregnant and had a stillbirth. I miss him so much and nobody explained it this thoroughly.
This happened to me yesterday during work. I am 11w3d. I felt a gush of blood while walking. I started to bleed heavily but had no cramps. I fortunately work at a hospital and a coworker wheeled me down to the ED immediately. They found a subchorionic hematoma located on the left side of my uterus which is on the opposite side of the baby. Baby’s heart was fluttering with a normal heart rate. It was the most terrifying thing I have ever experience. Thank you for this video, it makes me feel so much better.
This just happened to me yesterday, I thought I had miscarried. Went in today for an ultrasound and heartbeat is still strong. I'm 7w2d. Did you feel sore after?
My wife and I are going through this currently. She had bleeding at about 13 weeks with back pain and cramps. She also passed a blood clot. We thought she was having a miscarriage, which was an incredibly scary and emotional experience. Thankfully it was diagnosed as a mild subchorionic hemorrhage, so it will hopefully heal and have no impact on the baby. She's continuing to have bleeding about 5 days later so it's still pretty scary right now.
Same situation as of the moment. Im at 6 weeks and im in my 8th day bleeding and diagnosed with subchorionic hematoma. But I know, me and my baby are strong. We can get pass this.
HI! I AM 14 WEEKS PREGNANT AND I HAD VERY BAD PAINS AND I WAS BLEEDING HEAVILY. WENT TO THE ER STRAIGHT OFF THE AIRPLANE AS I WAS FEARING THE WORST AND PRAYING FOR THE BEST. IN THE EMERGENCY ROOM THEY DID AN ULTRASOUND AND LUCKILY BABY WAS PERFECT. THEY CHECKED MY CERVIX, AND THANKFULLY, IT WAS CLOSED. AFTER MUCH TEST AND LITERALLY 24HRS IN THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT, I WAS TOLD I HAD A SUBCHORIONIC HEMATOMA IN MY UTERUS. I WAS IN THE KAPIOLANI HOSPITAL FOR A WEEK. I'M HOME NOW, STILL BLEEDING AND CRAMPING BUT SO FAR, THINGS ARE GOING OKAY. AND I MUST SAY, THIS VIDEO GAVE ME A LOT HOPE AND REASSURANCE THAT EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE OKAY! PLEASE KEEP ME, BABY, AND DADDY IN YOUR PRAYERS. THANK YOU❤🙏❤
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! It’s so helpful to hear that others are having bleeding as well and still having successful pregnancies.
This is exactly how my first trimester experience was. Had heavy bleeding on 3 occasions, a couple weeks apart. Same gush of blood and continued bleeding for about 2-3 hours. My doctor didn’t explain things well at all and they documented it as a threatened miscarriage. Baby was fine on the ultrasound though. It was only through my own research that I was able to better understand what I was experiencing. My doctor also had me take crinone gel as treatment which was quite expensive and as I’ve learned, likely unnecessary and ineffective (also quite messy). Thankfully, by the 2nd trimester, no more bleeding episodes and I’m now at 30 weeks with a healthy baby bouncing around inside 😊.
No bleeding but I just visited ER and found out I’m 6weeks with SCH, THANK YOU SO MUCH! I’ve been crying all morning, took us 3 years to conceive and you’ve eased my nerves ALOT 😊
Congratulations love. I’m 7w 3d and I just left the er today and found out I had SCH as well. So I guess we all here trying to ease our mines. I hope you’re still doing well.
Thank you, my first episode of bleeding started on week 13, got diagnoses with subchorionic hematoma, still bleeding till now. I'm week 18 and the baby is fine. ✌
I'm at weeks 12 pregnant now experiencing bleeding now it started with light bleeding then followed with camping and heavy bleeding I terrified called the midwife came and checked and assured me that the baby is still there safe. It's quite terrifying experience. I'm relax after watching your video thanks🙏
I started spotting at 6 wks and knew I was miscarrying but I went to ER and did u/s it showed a viable pregnancy fhr 134. The spotting stopped after 3 days but returned daily and throughout since. Had another U/s 2 wks later and viable pregnancy still. I am praying every day. This is so scary cause I have minimal symptoms only fatigue and sob. This gave me some hope.
Thank you, Dr. for sharing such an important chapter of your pregnancy. It gives all the new mom's to be a piece of mind that we may not be able to find anywhere else since it's so early in our pregnancy. In my case I have noticed bleeding when I wipe too hard, when I feel constipated and have to push a bit harder, or when I have pressed my belly against something and have caused me pain. Now I know a bit more what to do and what to keep an eye for. But still I'm around 6 to 8 weeks pregnant at the moment. Hopefully it will keep growing 🙏
Thanks for sharing such an important chapter about pregnancy.I was feeling some abdominal pains for the pass three weeks now and I visit the hospital and the doctor said is normal,so it two weeks now am bleeding and I went to the hospital for a scan the doctor told me I had a miscarriage but I don’t believe it please can you help me with some medicine
Thank you very much for providing the current evidence based data. The internet is filled with conflicting information and having the most recent information helps very much.
I was diagnosed with a SCH yesterday. My ultrasound was at 7w1d, I’m 8w tomorrow. This video helped me feel a lot better. I don’t experience any bleeding or spotting. Hoping all goes well
My wife and I just got a call saying they believe the same we are just about to the end of week 8 we are just trying to give it to God all the way. Praying for you and your baby!!
@@Adelaideee10 🙏🏻 thank goodness My sister is going through this. She will be 15 weeks this week. We have been praying so much. Prior to this pregnancy she lost 2. Praying 🙏🏻
Thank you for sharing I also have a sch at 5w 5d with twins on thanksgiving I was passing big clots I thought I was having a miscarriage and I did have contractions I went to the er. They told me because it’s so early it’s hard to tell but baby A is good with a heartbeat baby b didn’t have a heartbeat but they said it’s early to see a heartbeat I have a follow up in 2 days praying both babies are okay and growing. I’m a surrogate so I had 2 embryo transferred earlier this month. Praying for the parents and the twins🙏
Update I just had my follow up ultrasound at 6 weeks 3 days today and unfortunately I miscarried the twins. Praying for all who are going through this.
I am currently 23 weeks pregnant with my second, I started following you when I was pregnant with my first and interested in your content on the Covid vaccine during pregnancy (received both vaccines in third trimester as a health care worker). With both pregnancies, I had spotting/light bleeding about two times during the first trimester which are very scary. I was never diagnosed with a subchronic hematoma via ultrasound, it seems that either hormonal fluxes or cervical changes led to bleeding in my case (even around the same weeks). Even knowing that bleeding can be normal in the first trimester, your mind always goes to the worst case scenario. Thank you for your content!
I'm so glad you found it helpful! It truly is such a tough thing to counsel about because of course it could be a sign of a miscarriage but it is ALSO totally normal to have some bleeding with healthy pregnancies. The unknown is hte hardest to live with.
One year ago today I was 7w4d and had been bleeding for about 2 weeks. Finally had my ultrasound and went in sobbing because I just assumed I had lost the baby, but instead was diagnosed with an SCH and got to hear my sweet babes heartbeat of 136bpm. My doctor scheduled another ultrasound to check it a week later, where we found out that baby unfortunately no longer had a heartbeat. I've continuously blamed myself for the loss (even though I know I couldn't have prevented the SCH), but since that diagnosis last year, this is the most I've heard/learned about SCH. Currently 23 weeks and so far no complications/no SCH so just praying for the best for the next 17 weeks.
Same with me I had a SCH my last pregnancy I had bleeding from 8 weeks till I lost my little boy at 14 weeks. I’m now pregnant with our little rainbow baby and am almost 11 weeks no signs of a SCH thus far and this gave me some more hope!
@@jordanryan7964 can you Please help me with the preventive measures u have followed to avoid sch in your next pregnancy...........I lost my baby boy at 25 weeks due to SCH and PPROM
Rachel ...... please help me with your lifestyle changes for the next pregnancy after sch loss......It will help me a lot .....i am currently going through a lot as i lost my son at 25 weeks due to SCH and pprom
I lost my child this year due to sch. I bled more than i ever have in my life. I bled a cup full. Filled with nothing but a clot and blood. Im 5 weeks 3 days pregnant now and freaking.i was diagnosed with sch when I clotted the other day when my hcg was at 9,000. Went back today with severe cramps and bleeding (no clotting.) And my hcg was 24,894.. with a sonogram of my baby and the babies heart... i dont understand whats going on since im still obviously progessing to make me bleed so much but i hope and pray my baby makes it 😔 i get so panicked when i see blood it intsantly puts me in a panic attack.. fingers crossed it doesnt happen again!
This was so helpful! Thank you for giving further explanation. I've been experiencing bleeding till now and per my ultrasound last tuesday night, it is because of Hematoma. Been praying and stayjng positive that this blood will be gone sooner. I'm on my 13weeks now. Thank you so much for this video!
Thank you so much, I'm on my 15th weeks now but still experiencing some bleeding thought doctors already told me before that bleseding is because of the blood cloth and it will going out or will be absorb by my body.. I'm not worrying much now since bleeding doesn't comes with any other body pain. And after some times it actually stops after taking some rest
Thank you so much for giving us this information ✨ i was so scary crying because is my first baby and i really feel so confused about the miscarriage !! Im only 7 weeks and 6 days they see a 2 su chorionic hemorrhage and also blood in my left ovary, but I feel better knowing that is no the worst , I will by in bed 🛌 and try to relax and pray 🙏🏼
I had bleeding at 5 weeks…. It was pretty light for an entire week! At my 8 week ultrasound I was told I had a sch and that’s what must’ve caused the bleeding prior! It’s small, so hopefully it heals with no issues 🙏🏽
In my first pregnancy I had bleeding at week 7 then it stopped with progesterone injections then another bleeding 2 weeks later but heartbeat stopped 😢 and I had a miscarriage. Now pregnant second time with bleeding week 8. It is starting to stop but I pray this baby comes to this healthy and I have it after a healthy pregnancy. Bed rest and progesterone injections helps with the bleeding but I hope things get better and we have this baby.
I've given birth to 4 children... so I'm not new to pregnancy and all it's surprises. But I had my period all last week. Saturday was my last day of period. I often have little headaches on a daily basis, but two days later, Monday, I started having one of the worst headaches and it was very unusual compared to my usual headaches. I ended up crying by the afternoon and my back was aching. My husband has never really had a headache, so he doesn't understand my pain, but even that day he was making phone calls to see what we could do to fix me. Eventually, I went to the restroom and noticed my period was back! I used a "super" tampon, but a couple hours later, I felt that it was already time to change it... which is unusual. When I went to change it, that's when I passed a huge blood clot the size of my finger! The only other time I've lost a blood clot like this was when I had a miscarriage a couple years ago. Mind you, I wasn't trying to get pregnant. I'm 38. My husband is 45. Together, we have 7 children. So....I didn't think it was a miscarriage because I didn't think I was pregnant. I just had my period! Immediately, I went to the store and bought a pregnancy test. I took the test in the store bathroom and it came back positive. I called my doctor, but they can't get me in for over a month. I'm not bleeding anymore after that clot passed 4 days ago, but all day, everyday, I'm still having this terrible headache that's unusual from my "normal" headaches. It's unbearable at times. I don't feel like myself. My mid back is still aching, which it never does until now. I don't want to, but I guess my best next step is to go to the emergency room. I just don't know what's going on.
I was told I had sch at 7 weeks. I never bled though. My doctor told me not to worry because as the baby gets bigger, it squishes all the blood out. At my last appointment at 12 weeks, it had completely disappeared.
Same just turned 8 weeks today! Doc told me I had sch told me it was small should go away alone but I might experience bleeding around this time.. told me not to lift anything and to not put any pressure on myself. Havent had any bleeding yet but hopefully by my next visit it is all gone !
This brought a bit of peace of mind! I had an early miscarriage in my first pregnancy. Had my rainbow baby Aug 2021. And just discovered I have SCH at 9wks via ultrasound. The wait and see approach is hard, but it's good to hear SCH alone doesn't mean increased risk of miscarriage.
I had this when I was 11weeks pregnant I was scared as this was my first pregnancy and with PCOS, I went to the ER and they told me it was SCH never heard about it before but thank God baby boy is 5 weeks old today. Just take it easy don’t run, exercise or lift heavy stuffs and drink lots of water
I’ve never gone to a male gynecologist; frankly just the thought is repulsive. You are the kind of gyno I’ve always had. A welcoming demeanor and of course you “get it”. Your frightening experience definitely makes you even more aware and able to relate. Ty to all of the amazing women doctors out there.
I also had a SCH in my first trimester that included bleeding and a trip to the ER then later closer to my due date it was discovered I also had placenta previa and we decided a c-section would be best thankfully it all worked out and my little one is 15 months and perfectly healthy
Thank you for this video! And thank you for sharing your own experience because that helped alot too - I am having a very similar experience to you (the one-week apart gushes and then stopping). Thank you!
Thank you SO much for sharing this video Marta. My experience is so similar to yours. Women like you and other mamas who have gone through SCH’s are bringing me lots of hope. Be well and happy ❤️🙏
I literally just went thru this tonight your story is my story thank you so much because you told me if it happen again it can be normal but I’m also aware that it can be a problem too but I’m prepared for whatever mindset wise. Thanks again prayers to all going thru this
In my first pregnancy I had a very small bleed/spotting and I ended up going 39 weeks and giving birth to a healthy baby. Now I'm pregnant with my 2nd and had a major bleed this time and so far no miscarriage, even though I'm still early in my first trimester. 🤞
This is my first pregnancy through IVF at age 36 and I've had bleeding but mostly huge clots. So scary. It's been within about 4 days and 3 big clots. I found out this morning I have a subchorionic hemmorage and now I have to be on bedrest for a week as I'm only almost 7 weeks. I can't sleep well and I'm so nervous. Doesn't help that I already have a panic disorder but knowing that others have gone through this and been okay does help! Thank you for this video!
@@shawnbrisk4523 yes! I was on bedrest for about a week and it resolved itself and is now gone. I think it depends on the size of them. Mine was fairly large which is why the clots were so big. I've heard that most of the time, it resolves on its own.
I had ivf as well and currently 13 weeks. I have a large hematoma. I’ve had 3 big scares with cramping so I was put on bed rest for about 6 weeks. I have an appointment tomorrow to see how it’s healing. I have to wear a pad 24-7. Bleeding isn’t bad but hasn’t stopped. I can’t do much or I start cramping and bleeding more. If your partner is going through this be patient and loving. This isn’t easy at all especially if you’re an active person.
Thank you for sharing your personal experience. My Dr always talked about chances of miscarriage diminishing after 8 weeks and the day I turned 9 weeks I felt a gush of warm fluid coming out just like when you're on your period. I hurry to the bathroom bright red blood! No cramps I was convinced I was having a miscarriage. Rushed to the ER they found a mild SCH, heartbeat was strong and baby was moving around. That was a bit reassuring but still scary. Bleeding stopped the night of but came back 2 days later which is now today as we speak. I try to not worry as I can bleed for a while before it can resolve. Praying for a healthy pregnancy nonetheless 🙏
I’m in the same boat. Had one giant gush of blood, then brown spotting, and now today I’m having some small rust colored bleeding. I’m hoping this means it’s just resolving itself. Here in solidarity as well🙏
Fyi, there are clinics all around that only do ultrasound for a small fee. I have an appt today for mine because I am experiencing moderate bleeding at 8 weeks. Thank you for this information, I'm praying it's all as it should be❤️🙏
This happened to me in 1995 13 weeks into the pregnancy. I was told that these usually heal on their own or I would likely miscarry. I did not miscarry but continued to have bouts of hemorrhage. I had several transfusions and at 25 weeks the baby was taken due to low platelet levels. I think my doctor called it a chronic abruption. He survived no compromise. Miraculous. During the surgery the doctor asked where is the placenta? There was none left it had been replaced by chains of clots. This made me wonder, is this a possible complication of a sch?
I had a scan and blood test done today, they couldn't see much in the scan said i was too early. So Monday need to do another blood test and there after a scan in 10 days. Hopefully everythings all good by Gods grace 🙏🏽 Update: my second bloodtest showed my hgc levels dropped. 5 days of bleeding has stopped completely. No further follow-up required. I keep telling myself I'm still preg as I swear I can feel a tingle. Who knows I'll do a preg test tom and if it shows preg I am. All my so call hcg levels are back to 0 since Tuesday morning.
Thank you for sharing your own experience in this video aside from the studies. Everything I have found online has said if it’s more than spotting it’s a miscarriage and this has definitely helped to know other people have gone through this much bleeding in the first trimester
Been Scared My wife is 7 weeks & 2 days pregnant she had a small amount of discharge blood late at night then in morning she got up to use the restroom & whip & saw blood we went to the er & they said she has a subchorionic hemorrhage but she has no pain just morning sickness been scared for past few days & are appointment for the ultrasound is in 2 weeks so these pass few days been going by slow & i been stuck in my thoughts but keep telling her everything fine but deep down scared because i don’t know if everything going to be fine:/…. best option i can is just pray for the best
I am 8 weeks and 2 days the sch was found at 6 Weeks and 4 days and then the heartbeat was strong I have another ultrasound Monday the 15th and I have had bleeding like I'm on my period one day with clots and then spotting the next and it has happened 3 days now but not in a row . I hope and pray the baby is a strong fighter and they find a heart beat
I just had bleeding with clot and i am 6 weeks 2 days. My appointment is today at 1:30 pm hoping its not a miscarriage. I am so upset please god bless me and save my baby. 🙏
I had two subchorionic hemorrhages about a week apart and about two weeks after the second one I miscarried my twins I was 12 weeks into the pregnancy. It's been almost a month and I miss them. We had to bury them it was so surreal holding their tiny bodies.
Thanks so much for your video. I'm 35 and my first pregnancy was healthy- We have a 2 year old child. I was 7-8 weeks pregnant with our second child and I'm about 99% sure I had a miscarriage last week. I experienced light bleeding with some small clots for about 4 days, then had cramping for 1 day and passed a big strange clot 3"x1" that well, looked a bit like a placenta. I've been bleeding for about 8 days total (seems to be basically done now) and I'm still testing positive on pregnancy tests. I haven't wanted to go in anywhere because I really just thought this was a miscarriage and there was nothing that could be done. I wonder if there is any way I could still be pregnant, with SCH. I hope so, but I don't think so.
I was never told what my bleed was because of but I do believe it was a sch. The clot that came away was the size of my palm. I’m 10 weeks 2 days now though 🤞🏻 and heartbeat has been seen twice
Thank you for discussing this topic - reassuring to hear. Did you have any further complications after the 1st trimester? Do you ever recommend bed rest or limiting activity?
I’m 42 and got pregnant through IVF. At 13 weeks, I had a gush of blood which continued for a few hours. I went to the emergency and all I needed was comfort and a solution. Well the doctor that I had said I can just wait it out and see what happen, or have an abortion. This is our first baby. The ultrasound came back that our baby was fine and that the cervix was closed. Why would I opted for an abortion? 9 hours in the emergency room with no solution, I chose to wait it out. I immediately put myself on bed rest, watch TH-cam and find another mother who recommended taking vitamin C. So far the bleeding have stopped. I’m hopeful and wishing everyone good luck!
Very similar story here! I conceived via IUI and had a sch at 6+4. That bleed lasted about 24-36 hours. At about 8 weeks I lost some more but it was brown blood so older. I was told that sch is more likely to happen when a pregnancy is due to IUI or IVF. I am almost 12 weeks and had some really light spotting the last two days. It’s such a scary thing especially after infertility! Praying you’re doing well! ❤
Hi doc, have daughter who has had 3 miscarriages,2 of them were twins and at 28weeks become iufds.All found to have blood cots in placenta.latest pregnancy she was on progesterone and aspirin but still lost.kindly help
Hi im having this right now im on 6weeks5days right now im praying that it will heal on its own.,had misacriage last 2020 and so afraid when isaw ders a blood,im having light bleeding on and off hoping this pregnancy will be a healthy one soon,praying for all mom who's been diagnose with same🙏🏼
I am experiencing the same Jenifer. I was at the ER last night, they fund a huge hematoma so the de was not really positive. Baby have a heart rate 98 he said it’s ok but not very strong. So now I am in my bed and waiting to see how it will turn out. How are you ? How big is your hematoma ?
Currently 11 weeks and 3 days and had this happen to me. The er doc was confident that at this time I am not having a miscarriage and it was just a subchorionic hematoma as there was a heart beat and no ultra sound on the weekends but I'll call and inform my ob tomorrow as well. Currently no cramps and the bleeding has stopped trying to stay hopeful that's why I'm here to learn more about this
This happened to me a few days ago , this is my 5th pregnancy just over 7 weeks I feel a gush of blood and as I’m completely unaware of this happening I automatically think it’s a loss . Then I ask on my birthing group on Facebook and it’s not uncommon and seems to happen mostly around 7-8 weeks with a few exceptions. I’m so curious why 7ish weeks? Also I’m greatly relieved as I’ve suffered one miscarriage and it was devastating as anyone who has will know. I’m so grateful to learn that this isn’t dire
This is so helpful. My wife is going through a similar thing at 6 weeks pregnant. She went to the ER and she has been scheduled for an ultrasound scan tomorrow. Fingers crossed
Have been bleeding since Friday💔I went for utrasound on Sunday and the baby was still there growing,,have been given some medicines to increase the levels of progesterone but am still bleeding..it's been 5days now..am so scared
I started spotting from 6weeks 4 days. Today I'm at 9weeks 2 days. Till now 3 episodes of sudden dark and fresh blood other than spotting.. I was freaking out and ended up at ER for 2 times. In the middle of the time I also met my OB At 7th week. At that time, they couldn't diagnose anything. But 4 days back in ER they diagnosed me as SCH. Though it is small but I'm freaking out. Till now I had 3 times of USG and all of them showed alive IUP with good fetal heart rate. Tomorrow is my routine appointment with OB. Let's see what she says.
I'm 11 weeks and 4 days pregnant, but it is 2 days now. I'm bleeding so badly with clutch and pains on the side,back, belly, urine bloody. I don't know. I feel like moving a lot, and it is like I have more than one babies This pregnancy is my 6th baby. And my first one that experienced this. Should I go to the hospital?
I am currently 4weeks 3days. I woke up with light spotting which later resulted to heavy bleeding with clots. I’m so scared since this is my first pregnancy. I really don’t want to lose this pregnancy. If the bleeding continues tomorrow I will most likely visit the doctor. After watching this video and seeing people’s comments I feel kind of relieved but still scared though
I passed heavy bleeding with clots in the week of 9th. I was having heavy bleeding for 3 days then it turned into very light brown discharge. Currently i am 16 week pregnant and i still pass brown discharge daily. They found SCH in the 14week of ultrasound. It is 5cm. Doctor is unable to answer if its a large, small or medium. I am 37 years old. Currently i have no answers😢
I am 37 with my first pregnancy. From the 8th week , I had heavy bleeding with a clot that repeats every 4 days, and now I am 10 weeks and I still have heavy bleeding. The size of the hematoma was small the first time, but in the control ultrasound, it got bigger every time, and the fetus had heart beat , I am going through many scary days, I hope my fetus will stay healthy😔😔😔😔why my bleeding happen every 4 days??on and off
I'm 8w today & got the call that a small sch is present near where the placenta is forming - baby is on track growth wise and heart beat is 153... is the risk higher if mine is near the placenta? I only have had mild cramping, no bleeding thank the Lord. Please someone answer 😢
1st ultrasound, they found a sac but no embryo. 2nd ultrasound they found a embryo with a heartbeat.... 3rd ultrasound only 3 weeks apart........ No baby anymore. Just the sac that it grew big. 😢 Waiting for another ultrasound, for 2nd opinion.... Or should I give up already?
Hey Am 6weeks pregnant I didn't an ultrasound and it says there's a mild subchorionic hemorrhage and I have been given metronidazole Neomycin and Nystatin pessaries and nervous do I go ahead and use them
i am 5w3d pregnant after a FET of 5 day embryo. I had a gush of blood with 2 small clots (I think they're not tissues) yesterday that filled a liner. Blood test shows my progesterone is low so additng prog oil (on top of my prometrium and suppositories). My clinic won't scan me for another week. I'm freaking out. I'm asking dr. google every other second and checking my liner every 20 mins. The prog oil is making my hip hurt. I'm a tiny women and 40. Any insight or opinion would help.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience , i have the SCH and i have started having bleeding episodes from the 9th week no i am the 10h week , i have appointment for Ultrasound tommorow i am very anxious especialy the blood works shows decreasing level of HCG 😢😢
I suffered a massive sch bleed at 6 weeks. I passed many massive clots and was told I had a miscarriage. I bled for about a month thereafter. At a routine check up it was discovered I have not miscarriage after all. I'm 32 weeks pregnant now.
Hi, im scared… im bleeding non stop even though im in bed. Praying everyday
Thanks for sharing this mark of hope! ❤
Hii, plz tell what precautions you took?
@@moniqueguarinoo hi Monique how are you doing? Is your baby ok? I’m 5 weeks and having cramping and bleeding since yesterday. Going to see the doctor today. I’m very much worried.
@@pramilatamang1 what happen dear
My wife experienced bleeding last weekend we were terrified. We went to emerge expecting the worst however the babys heartbear was strong and the dr said that its a normal healthy pregnancy. A wave of relief filled our heart. Were at 9 weeks now 🤞
🙏🏻
Wow!
Hows your wife now ?
@@Info60secs GREAT!!! Shes over 22 weeks now and ITS A BOY!!! Were so excited to meet him
@@thrash208 awwww I m so happy for you guys.
Prayers with you.
I’m 10weeks I had a gush of pink discharge after my husband and I had sex. Shortly after about 30mins or so, it was bright red fresh blood. (today is 1/31/2023) we went to the Er immediately this past Sunday and they did an Ultrasound scan and explain to us I had a SCH.. they explained everything to us. My vitals were good, the baby heart rate was great and during the ultrasound I saw the baby moving around 🥰 But I was still very scared being that this is our first child together and we were trying to conceive for 3 months prior to becoming pregnant. Since Sunday the ER visit, I’ve have a dark brown discharge that is slowly subsiding associated with occasional mild cramps(which could also be growing pains). We have an appointment this Thursday with our OB to make sure everything is still progressing properly. Send us positive vibes 💕💕 and to the mommies who’s experiencing the same thing may god bless us all and give us perfect peace and healthy babies!
We are in the same boat. This is so frustrating. Been spotting since I was 6 wks and it continues.
@@ahunter1205 continues until which week? I am also experiencing this after 6 weeks 3 days
Update!
@@sayuris1139I hope everything is well with you.. I am just experiencing it now, I'm on my 6th week. 😢 So scary!
Im also here with the same problem sinds 7 weeks now im in 11 weeks. Im pregnent with a twins my last child of 4 is 10 years old. I never experience this before. Im afraid but i pray en hope it goes well. Love to you all. God shall see us treu ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks so much for this video. I was in hospital yesterday at 7 weeks pregnant because I’ve got a sch - I didn’t know and thought I was having a miscarriage with the amount of blood and cramping. The sch has unfortunately got bigger than 2 days prior, but the baby looked good and it’s heartbeat was normal. I’m praying for a happy outcome!
🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾
Same
How come mine couldn't be seen during an ultrasound, been 3weeks and was in pain with less bleeding for two days
This actually happened to me and I was told I wasn’t pregnant and later found out I was pregnant at 11 weeks via vaginal ultrasound. I didn’t get a positive home pregnancy test until my 12th weeks. I had a boy.
Where you still having pregnancy symptoms after the bleeding? Please kindly reply me cause I'm just confused
Hlw
@@StarTalk_01I have also please help me
From my personal experience, I would recommend anyone with hematoma to rest/ take it easy.
I had a hematoma, doctor told me there's nothing I can do about it, and definitely no need for bed rest. Unfortunately, at 18 weeks we lost the pregnancy.
Now I am pregnant again, I had hematoma again, we decided- this time - no risks!
I went on bed rest at 14 weeks and thank God, at 20 weeks it totally desolved.
So happy for you ❤
do you recommend to go to work?
Sending strength to women and couples going through this. In my case I numbed my emotions and couldn´t fully connect with or enjoy the pregnancy in first -second trimestre. I just willed everything to get better.
This was my first pregnancy at 37/38 years old. We planned and prepared for pregnancy and to our relief, it happened within 2 months. I had implementation bleeding which was quite heavy, I actually assumed it was a slightly early period. Later at 7 weeks pregnant after a sudden small bleed, a SCH was diagnosed. It lasted 4 months. And included about 4 trips to the ER. Sometimes heavy bleeds (gushing tap) and clots (larger than the size of a fried egg) would happen out of nowhere. It was traumatic. Each time I had no cramps and the heartbeat was fine and cervix tightly closed.
For months I rested as often as possible and moved incredibly gently, slowly and carefully. The third trimestre was better, it had completely gone away. I could go for gentle hikes again, swim a little, and felt more at ease to become emotionally connected and more hopeful about my growing baby. I went on to have a healthy baby by elective CS at 39 weeks.
The truth is so many families have traumatic fertility journeys, pregnancies, and or births. Just take it day by day. I´m just about ready now to try for my second one and hope whatever the journey, the outcome will be a healthy baby, and if not learn to accept that too.
So much more research and study is needed in the area of pregnancy and more education and support should be provided. We have a long way to go. It´s great that more videos are being put up about this. In 2019 when I had mine, I feel like there was much less info available about SCH online and on youtube.
Kudos also to all those who share as I think that´s what helped me not feel so alone when I went through mine. It also helps to know someone went through the same or a severe situation and things got better. It´s temporary, things will get better.
Thanks for sharing this ❤
Congratulations!!!! 🎉🎊❤️
Thank you for sharing. I started bleeding from week 7 till now week 15, still small bleeding every day. Sometimes heavy bleeding out of no where. I have a girl aged 3 almost, now I am carrying a boy, I hope everything turns out to be fine. Keep praying every day
Thank you so much for sharing, as it is so healing to hear true testimonies as opposed to reading medical opinion.
I'm doing this alone its terrifying 😭😭
I’m so glad that there is more information out there about this. I had them in 3 of my last 4 pregnancies found on ultrasound. I actually never bled and was made to feel like I was almost certainly going to miscarry all three times. I had all three kids between 39 and 40 weeks totally healthy and kind of feel like I was made to feel fearful unnecessarily. Mine completely reabsorbed by 20 weeks. These were all in the last 8 years but I feel like public information about SCH has come really far. It’s encouraging and I really appreciate this content.
I’m 39 with 4 children and had no idea that you could bleed without it meaning a miscarriage until this happened to me a few days ago and I learned in a birth group about sch. I hope my story in that group will reassure anyone who it happens too as you have me
did it get re-absorbed without any medication
did it disolve with out any medicine
@@catherinenakibombo7322 yes they either bleed out or reabsorb without any medication. There is currently no approved medication proven to help with SCH. All four of mine reabsorbed over time (2-11 weeks).
This makes me feel
So much better and how many didnt miscarry.
I am soo glad I ran into you Dr. Perez! I’m in my first pregnancy and because of my age group, i am feeling like i’ve been in purgatory since my i’ve first started bleeding. I was told in my first ultrasound that i was 5 weeks, when the following week I started to bleed brown then all of a sudden i had a day that was heavier and i was on day 7 or bleeding. As you can imagine i freaked out and went to the ER , and they said that I was actually showing 5 weeks. I was told at the ER that if the previous ultrasound was correct, then it may show signs that the baby is not growing and it may not be a viable pregnancy. My heart broke into a million pieces. They sent me to outpatient to a local OBGYN and they began testing for the hormone levels to see if that statement was true. Yesterday, I received the good news that the baby is growing! I’m inly sharing this information here in case any other mother to be ever runs into these situations at the emergency room! Make sure you get second opinions and stay as positive as you can be! Much much love and thank you dr. For putting this very helpful video! ❤❤❤
Im 9 weeks pregnant and my bleeding started from brown spot to light red but light bleeding. Just wondering if you feel pain or sudden pressure on your right abdomen? Thank yoy and have a great day
Thank you so much for this video. My wife is 8 weeks pregnant and had 3 smaller bleedings in the last 2 weeks and it makes us go crazy, next check with the doctor is in 2 days, hoping for the best.
I’m 11 weeks today and I went to the ER last night for a HUGE gush of blood. I thought for sure I was miscarrying. I had no cramps though which gave me a shred of faith. I went back for an ultrasound and they saw a healthy baby measuring a day ahead with a heartbeat of 170. They saw a “sack” of blood and the doctor explained that everything looked great, just had a hematoma.
Exactly same experience! I’m still 7 weeks and went to ER. After scan they say baby is fine however I’m on bedrest until I stop getting discharges. I bled a lot and as soon as those hematomas came out bleeding stopped.
Omg this video was so much more informative than anything my fertility & OB could give me. They just say "we dont know why it happen".
This video just gave me so much closure I lost my son a year ago to this I was 20w pregnant and had a stillbirth. I miss him so much and nobody explained it this thoroughly.
This happened to me yesterday during work. I am 11w3d. I felt a gush of blood while walking. I started to bleed heavily but had no cramps. I fortunately work at a hospital and a coworker wheeled me down to the ED immediately. They found a subchorionic hematoma located on the left side of my uterus which is on the opposite side of the baby. Baby’s heart was fluttering with a normal heart rate. It was the most terrifying thing I have ever experience. Thank you for this video, it makes me feel so much better.
Same thing happened to me. I’m 13 weeks and I’ve had 3 big scares. I was put on bed rest. I have to wear a pad 24-7.
@@Adriana01616 same thing with me..tell me the right now situation. Is everything is fine or not ?
Tell me what is the present situation. Plz share your experience..same thing also done with me
Happened to me yesterday 11 weeks and 2 days
This just happened to me yesterday, I thought I had miscarried. Went in today for an ultrasound and heartbeat is still strong. I'm 7w2d. Did you feel sore after?
My wife and I are going through this currently. She had bleeding at about 13 weeks with back pain and cramps. She also passed a blood clot. We thought she was having a miscarriage, which was an incredibly scary and emotional experience. Thankfully it was diagnosed as a mild subchorionic hemorrhage, so it will hopefully heal and have no impact on the baby. She's continuing to have bleeding about 5 days later so it's still pretty scary right now.
Praying for you and your family 💗 that everything will turn out ok!
What type of medicine Dr prescribed you. Plz reply
@@mohinideshmukh1729 I don't recall any medicine being prescribed. I think they just said no heavy lifting and try to avoid any strenuous exercise.
@@PunkRockGuitarTabs how long does you have a bleeding?
Same situation as of the moment. Im at 6 weeks and im in my 8th day bleeding and diagnosed with subchorionic hematoma. But I know, me and my baby are strong. We can get pass this.
HI! I AM 14 WEEKS PREGNANT AND I HAD VERY BAD PAINS AND I WAS BLEEDING HEAVILY. WENT TO THE ER STRAIGHT OFF THE AIRPLANE AS I WAS FEARING THE WORST AND PRAYING FOR THE BEST. IN THE EMERGENCY ROOM THEY DID AN ULTRASOUND AND LUCKILY BABY WAS PERFECT. THEY CHECKED MY CERVIX, AND THANKFULLY, IT WAS CLOSED. AFTER MUCH TEST AND LITERALLY 24HRS IN THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT, I WAS TOLD I HAD A SUBCHORIONIC HEMATOMA IN MY UTERUS. I WAS IN THE KAPIOLANI HOSPITAL FOR A WEEK. I'M HOME NOW, STILL BLEEDING AND CRAMPING BUT SO FAR, THINGS ARE GOING OKAY. AND I MUST SAY, THIS VIDEO GAVE ME A LOT HOPE AND REASSURANCE THAT EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE OKAY! PLEASE KEEP ME, BABY, AND DADDY IN YOUR PRAYERS. THANK YOU❤🙏❤
🙏🏻praying all is going well for you and baby. My sister going through the same
Do you recommend flying with one? I have a big trip (20+) hours of travel and 2 flights. I’m nervous to travel with a hematoma.
@@HelloEternitydid you go on your trip? Outcome?
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! It’s so helpful to hear that others are having bleeding as well and still having successful pregnancies.
This is exactly how my first trimester experience was. Had heavy bleeding on 3 occasions, a couple weeks apart. Same gush of blood and continued bleeding for about 2-3 hours. My doctor didn’t explain things well at all and they documented it as a threatened miscarriage. Baby was fine on the ultrasound though. It was only through my own research that I was able to better understand what I was experiencing. My doctor also had me take crinone gel as treatment which was quite expensive and as I’ve learned, likely unnecessary and ineffective (also quite messy). Thankfully, by the 2nd trimester, no more bleeding episodes and I’m now at 30 weeks with a healthy baby bouncing around inside 😊.
No bleeding but I just visited ER and found out I’m 6weeks with SCH, THANK YOU SO MUCH! I’ve been crying all morning, took us 3 years to conceive and you’ve eased my nerves ALOT 😊
Praying for a safe pregnancy 🎉❤ You got this !
Amen. Congratulations 👏🏾🎉
Congratulations love. I’m 7w 3d and I just left the er today and found out I had SCH as well. So I guess we all here trying to ease our mines. I hope you’re still doing well.
Congratulations!!! 🥳🥳
Thank you, my first episode of bleeding started on week 13, got diagnoses with subchorionic hematoma, still bleeding till now. I'm week 18 and the baby is fine. ✌
are you on bed rest?
heavy or light bleeding? on and off?
First time was heavy week 13 , then continued light all the time for couple of weeks until it stopped on week 22.
I'm at weeks 12 pregnant now experiencing bleeding now it started with light bleeding then followed with camping and heavy bleeding I terrified called the midwife came and checked and assured me that the baby is still there safe. It's quite terrifying experience. I'm relax after watching your video thanks🙏
Hey how are u now ???
I started spotting at 6 wks and knew I was miscarrying but I went to ER and did u/s it showed a viable pregnancy fhr 134. The spotting stopped after 3 days but returned daily and throughout since. Had another U/s 2 wks later and viable pregnancy still. I am praying every day. This is so scary cause I have minimal symptoms only fatigue and sob. This gave me some hope.
How are you now? ❤
Hope everything went well for you and baby.. Any update?
Thank you, Dr. for sharing such an important chapter of your pregnancy. It gives all the new mom's to be a piece of mind that we may not be able to find anywhere else since it's so early in our pregnancy.
In my case I have noticed bleeding when I wipe too hard, when I feel constipated and have to push a bit harder, or when I have pressed my belly against something and have caused me pain.
Now I know a bit more what to do and what to keep an eye for. But still I'm around 6 to 8 weeks pregnant at the moment. Hopefully it will keep growing 🙏
Thanks for sharing such an important chapter about pregnancy.I was feeling some abdominal pains for the pass three weeks now and I visit the hospital and the doctor said is normal,so it two weeks now am bleeding and I went to the hospital for a scan the doctor told me I had a miscarriage but I don’t believe it please can you help me with some medicine
Thank you very much for providing the current evidence based data. The internet is filled with conflicting information and having the most recent information helps very much.
I was diagnosed with a SCH yesterday. My ultrasound was at 7w1d, I’m 8w tomorrow. This video helped me feel a lot better. I don’t experience any bleeding or spotting. Hoping all goes well

Thank you for sharing I also have a sch at 5w 5d with twins on thanksgiving I was passing big clots I thought I was having a miscarriage and I did have contractions I went to the er. They told me because it’s so early it’s hard to tell but baby A is good with a heartbeat baby b didn’t have a heartbeat but they said it’s early to see a heartbeat I have a follow up in 2 days praying both babies are okay and growing. I’m a surrogate so I had 2 embryo transferred earlier this month. Praying for the parents and the twins🙏
Update I just had my follow up ultrasound at 6 weeks 3 days today and unfortunately I miscarried the twins. Praying for all who are going through this.
Your info at 6:46 on this video was very helpful. I guess I ll just try to calm myself down and have faith that everything will be ok.
Thank you!
I am currently 23 weeks pregnant with my second, I started following you when I was pregnant with my first and interested in your content on the Covid vaccine during pregnancy (received both vaccines in third trimester as a health care worker). With both pregnancies, I had spotting/light bleeding about two times during the first trimester which are very scary. I was never diagnosed with a subchronic hematoma via ultrasound, it seems that either hormonal fluxes or cervical changes led to bleeding in my case (even around the same weeks). Even knowing that bleeding can be normal in the first trimester, your mind always goes to the worst case scenario. Thank you for your content!
I'm so glad you found it helpful! It truly is such a tough thing to counsel about because of course it could be a sign of a miscarriage but it is ALSO totally normal to have some bleeding with healthy pregnancies. The unknown is hte hardest to live with.
One year ago today I was 7w4d and had been bleeding for about 2 weeks. Finally had my ultrasound and went in sobbing because I just assumed I had lost the baby, but instead was diagnosed with an SCH and got to hear my sweet babes heartbeat of 136bpm. My doctor scheduled another ultrasound to check it a week later, where we found out that baby unfortunately no longer had a heartbeat. I've continuously blamed myself for the loss (even though I know I couldn't have prevented the SCH), but since that diagnosis last year, this is the most I've heard/learned about SCH. Currently 23 weeks and so far no complications/no SCH so just praying for the best for the next 17 weeks.
This is encouraging, I’m 7w2d and started light bleeding yesterday, I have an ultrasound this week!
Thinking of you with blessings xx
Same with me I had a SCH my last pregnancy I had bleeding from 8 weeks till I lost my little boy at 14 weeks.
I’m now pregnant with our little rainbow baby and am almost 11 weeks no signs of a SCH thus far and this gave me some more hope!
@@jordanryan7964 can you Please help me with the preventive measures u have followed to avoid sch in your next pregnancy...........I lost my baby boy at 25 weeks due to SCH and PPROM
Rachel ...... please help me with your lifestyle changes for the next pregnancy after sch loss......It will help me a lot .....i am currently going through a lot as i lost my son at 25 weeks due to SCH and pprom
I lost my child this year due to sch. I bled more than i ever have in my life. I bled a cup full. Filled with nothing but a clot and blood. Im 5 weeks 3 days pregnant now and freaking.i was diagnosed with sch when I clotted the other day when my hcg was at 9,000. Went back today with severe cramps and bleeding (no clotting.) And my hcg was 24,894.. with a sonogram of my baby and the babies heart... i dont understand whats going on since im still obviously progessing to make me bleed so much but i hope and pray my baby makes it 😔 i get so panicked when i see blood it intsantly puts me in a panic attack.. fingers crossed it doesnt happen again!
I’m bleeding 6 wks doc next week this is helpful information it’s more common than talked about
This was so helpful! Thank you for giving further explanation. I've been experiencing bleeding till now and per my ultrasound last tuesday night, it is because of Hematoma. Been praying and stayjng positive that this blood will be gone sooner. I'm on my 13weeks now.
Thank you so much for this video!
Thank you so much, I'm on my 15th weeks now but still experiencing some bleeding thought doctors already told me before that bleseding is because of the blood cloth and it will going out or will be absorb by my body.. I'm not worrying much now since bleeding doesn't comes with any other body pain. And after some times it actually stops after taking some rest
Thank you so much for giving us this information ✨ i was so scary crying because is my first baby and i really feel so confused about the miscarriage !! Im only 7 weeks and 6 days they see a 2 su chorionic hemorrhage and also blood in my left ovary, but I feel better knowing that is no the worst , I will by in bed 🛌 and try to relax and pray 🙏🏼
Hey hun..was everything okay ?
Hope everything went well for you.. How are you and baby now?
I had bleeding at 5 weeks…. It was pretty light for an entire week! At my 8 week ultrasound I was told I had a sch and that’s what must’ve caused the bleeding prior! It’s small, so hopefully it heals with no issues 🙏🏽
Did u have the baby ?
Yes, in August 😃
Congratulations I feel relieved to hear that.. How small was your sch back then? hope you don't mind
In my first pregnancy I had bleeding at week 7 then it stopped with progesterone injections then another bleeding 2 weeks later but heartbeat stopped 😢 and I had a miscarriage. Now pregnant second time with bleeding week 8. It is starting to stop but I pray this baby comes to this healthy and I have it after a healthy pregnancy. Bed rest and progesterone injections helps with the bleeding but I hope things get better and we have this baby.
I've given birth to 4 children... so I'm not new to pregnancy and all it's surprises.
But I had my period all last week. Saturday was my last day of period. I often have little headaches on a daily basis, but two days later, Monday, I started having one of the worst headaches and it was very unusual compared to my usual headaches. I ended up crying by the afternoon and my back was aching.
My husband has never really had a headache, so he doesn't understand my pain, but even that day he was making phone calls to see what we could do to fix me.
Eventually, I went to the restroom and noticed my period was back! I used a "super" tampon, but a couple hours later, I felt that it was already time to change it... which is unusual.
When I went to change it, that's when I passed a huge blood clot the size of my finger!
The only other time I've lost a blood clot like this was when I had a miscarriage a couple years ago.
Mind you, I wasn't trying to get pregnant. I'm 38. My husband is 45. Together, we have 7 children. So....I didn't think it was a miscarriage because I didn't think I was pregnant. I just had my period!
Immediately, I went to the store and bought a pregnancy test. I took the test in the store bathroom and it came back positive.
I called my doctor, but they can't get me in for over a month.
I'm not bleeding anymore after that clot passed 4 days ago, but all day, everyday, I'm still having this terrible headache that's unusual from my "normal" headaches. It's unbearable at times. I don't feel like myself.
My mid back is still aching, which it never does until now.
I don't want to, but I guess my best next step is to go to the emergency room.
I just don't know what's going on.
Are you alright? Some pregnancies I get debilitating migraines in the first trimester. I hope all is well with you.
What ended up happening ????
I was told I had sch at 7 weeks. I never bled though. My doctor told me not to worry because as the baby gets bigger, it squishes all the blood out. At my last appointment at 12 weeks, it had completely disappeared.
I’m 7 weeks and was told yesterday about the SCH. I haven’t bleed either! I’m hoping to have the same outcome as you at my next appointment
Same here! In the same boat
Same just turned 8 weeks today! Doc told me I had sch told me it was small should go away alone but I might experience bleeding around this time.. told me not to lift anything and to not put any pressure on myself. Havent had any bleeding yet but hopefully by my next visit it is all gone !
So glad yours went away in 5 weeks!! How big was it initially?
This brought a bit of peace of mind! I had an early miscarriage in my first pregnancy. Had my rainbow baby Aug 2021. And just discovered I have SCH at 9wks via ultrasound. The wait and see approach is hard, but it's good to hear SCH alone doesn't mean increased risk of miscarriage.
I had this when I was 11weeks pregnant I was scared as this was my first pregnancy and with PCOS, I went to the ER and they told me it was SCH never heard about it before but thank God baby boy is 5 weeks old today. Just take it easy don’t run, exercise or lift heavy stuffs and drink lots of water
Hey dear sister did you get heavy bleeding......bcoz I have same situation ryt now .....clots
This made me feel a lot better. Thanks so much ❤
I’ve never gone to a male gynecologist; frankly just the thought is repulsive. You are the kind of gyno I’ve always had. A welcoming demeanor and of course you “get it”. Your frightening experience definitely makes you even more aware and able to relate.
Ty to all of the amazing women doctors out there.
I also had a SCH in my first trimester that included bleeding and a trip to the ER then later closer to my due date it was discovered I also had placenta previa and we decided a c-section would be best thankfully it all worked out and my little one is 15 months and perfectly healthy
What was the bleeding like please help me
I'm 6 weeks
Joy!
Thank you for this video!
And thank you for sharing your own experience because that helped alot too - I am having a very similar experience to you (the one-week apart gushes and then stopping).
Thank you!
Thank you SO much for sharing this video Marta. My experience is so similar to yours. Women like you and other mamas who have gone through SCH’s are bringing me lots of hope. Be well and happy ❤️🙏
I literally just went thru this tonight your story is my story thank you so much because you told me if it happen again it can be normal but I’m also aware that it can be a problem too but I’m prepared for whatever mindset wise. Thanks again prayers to all going thru this
In my first pregnancy I had a very small bleed/spotting and I ended up going 39 weeks and giving birth to a healthy baby. Now I'm pregnant with my 2nd and had a major bleed this time and so far no miscarriage, even though I'm still early in my first trimester. 🤞
This is my first pregnancy through IVF at age 36 and I've had bleeding but mostly huge clots. So scary. It's been within about 4 days and 3 big clots. I found out this morning I have a subchorionic hemmorage and now I have to be on bedrest for a week as I'm only almost 7 weeks. I can't sleep well and I'm so nervous. Doesn't help that I already have a panic disorder but knowing that others have gone through this and been okay does help! Thank you for this video!
How are you now?
Any update? My gf going through this right now at just about 7 weeks
@@shawnbrisk4523 yes! I was on bedrest for about a week and it resolved itself and is now gone. I think it depends on the size of them. Mine was fairly large which is why the clots were so big. I've heard that most of the time, it resolves on its own.
I had ivf as well and currently 13 weeks. I have a large hematoma. I’ve had 3 big scares with cramping so I was put on bed rest for about 6 weeks. I have an appointment tomorrow to see how it’s healing. I have to wear a pad 24-7. Bleeding isn’t bad but hasn’t stopped. I can’t do much or I start cramping and bleeding more. If your partner is going through this be patient and loving. This isn’t easy at all especially if you’re an active person.
Did you continue taking the baby aspirin or stop?
This was so helpful this is my first pregnancy and I was so worried
Thank you for sharing your personal experience. My Dr always talked about chances of miscarriage diminishing after 8 weeks and the day I turned 9 weeks I felt a gush of warm fluid coming out just like when you're on your period. I hurry to the bathroom bright red blood! No cramps I was convinced I was having a miscarriage. Rushed to the ER they found a mild SCH, heartbeat was strong and baby was moving around. That was a bit reassuring but still scary. Bleeding stopped the night of but came back 2 days later which is now today as we speak. I try to not worry as I can bleed for a while before it can resolve. Praying for a healthy pregnancy nonetheless 🙏
I am in the same boat on day two of bleeding. I am 11 weeks. Here in solidarity.
I’m in the same boat. Had one giant gush of blood, then brown spotting, and now today I’m having some small rust colored bleeding. I’m hoping this means it’s just resolving itself. Here in solidarity as well🙏
@@Saint_GalahadHey , after how many weeks it was healed? Are you okay now?
Thank you so much this is my second pregnancy and am going through same am praying to God to protect my baby for me
Fyi, there are clinics all around that only do ultrasound for a small fee. I have an appt today for mine because I am experiencing moderate bleeding at 8 weeks. Thank you for this information, I'm praying it's all as it should be❤️🙏
This happened to me in 1995 13 weeks into the pregnancy. I was told that these usually heal on their own or I would likely miscarry. I did not miscarry but continued to have bouts of hemorrhage. I had several transfusions and at 25 weeks the baby was taken due to low platelet levels. I think my doctor called it a chronic abruption. He survived no compromise. Miraculous. During the surgery the doctor asked where is the placenta? There was none left it had been replaced by chains of clots. This made me wonder, is this a possible complication of a sch?
Wow!
Omifreaking goooodness!! How can I find an ob thats as nice and informative as you are?! I'm so serious.
I had a scan and blood test done today, they couldn't see much in the scan said i was too early. So Monday need to do another blood test and there after a scan in 10 days. Hopefully everythings all good by Gods grace 🙏🏽
Update: my second bloodtest showed my hgc levels dropped. 5 days of bleeding has stopped completely. No further follow-up required. I keep telling myself I'm still preg as I swear I can feel a tingle. Who knows I'll do a preg test tom and if it shows preg I am. All my so call hcg levels are back to 0 since Tuesday morning.
How did everything work out for you. I hope well. ❤
Thank you for sharing your own experience in this video aside from the studies. Everything I have found online has said if it’s more than spotting it’s a miscarriage and this has definitely helped to know other people have gone through this much bleeding in the first trimester

Weeks and 4 days and then the heartbeat was strong I have another ultrasound Monday the 15th and I have had bleeding like I'm on my period one day with clots and then spotting the next and it has happened 3 days now but not in a row . I hope and pray the baby is a strong fighter and they find a heart beat
Thanks for this video, it has reassured me, im so grateful
8 weeks.. bleed heavy one day then it stopped and I just had spotting.. so confused.. all I have to do is wait it out😫
This gives me a little hope. More than I had last night.
Me to I went through this last night
I just had bleeding with clot and i am 6 weeks 2 days. My appointment is today at 1:30 pm hoping its not a miscarriage. I am so upset please god bless me and save my baby. 🙏
In that exact same boat today. What happened in your situation? I hope it's ok!
@@14docmurph Hi! I am 21 weeks now. Everything is good so far. Best wishes to you.
I'm 6 weeks 3 days and same for me... happy for you
I had two subchorionic hemorrhages about a week apart and about two weeks after the second one I miscarried my twins I was 12 weeks into the pregnancy. It's been almost a month and I miss them. We had to bury them it was so surreal holding their tiny bodies.
I’m so sorry for your loss😢
Thank you
Sorry for your loss 💕
That is so sad. I’m so sorry you lost them.
@@MeHoyMinoy-cv3ps thank you . We are in the process of ttc again.
God bless you doc. Such terrifying experience iam having at these days. Bleeding two days, 5 weeks.
Thanks Dr Perez for posting this video today.
Thanks so much for your video. I'm 35 and my first pregnancy was healthy- We have a 2 year old child. I was 7-8 weeks pregnant with our second child and I'm about 99% sure I had a miscarriage last week. I experienced light bleeding with some small clots for about 4 days, then had cramping for 1 day and passed a big strange clot 3"x1" that well, looked a bit like a placenta. I've been bleeding for about 8 days total (seems to be basically done now) and I'm still testing positive on pregnancy tests. I haven't wanted to go in anywhere because I really just thought this was a miscarriage and there was nothing that could be done. I wonder if there is any way I could still be pregnant, with SCH. I hope so, but I don't think so.
Found out the "big strange clot" was a decidual cast, I'm testing negative on pregnancy tests now.
I’m experiencing this now I’m so scared 😢 I’m praying I don’t lose my baby
Hi!may I ask you how are you?
I hope everything turned out okay for you. 🙏🏻❤️ I was diagnosed with this today. I want my baby so bad. 😥
I was never told what my bleed was because of but I do believe it was a sch. The clot that came away was the size of my palm. I’m 10 weeks 2 days now though 🤞🏻 and heartbeat has been seen twice
Hi! How's your baby now?
Thank you for discussing this topic - reassuring to hear. Did you have any further complications after the 1st trimester? Do you ever recommend bed rest or limiting activity?
I’m 42 and got pregnant through IVF. At 13 weeks, I had a gush of blood which continued for a few hours. I went to the emergency and all I needed was comfort and a solution. Well the doctor that I had said I can just wait it out and see what happen, or have an abortion. This is our first baby. The ultrasound came back that our baby was fine and that the cervix was closed. Why would I opted for an abortion? 9 hours in the emergency room with no solution, I chose to wait it out. I immediately put myself on bed rest, watch TH-cam and find another mother who recommended taking vitamin C. So far the bleeding have stopped. I’m hopeful and wishing everyone good luck!
Very similar story here! I conceived via IUI and had a sch at 6+4. That bleed lasted about 24-36 hours. At about 8 weeks I lost some more but it was brown blood so older. I was told that sch is more likely to happen when a pregnancy is due to IUI or IVF. I am almost 12 weeks and had some really light spotting the last two days. It’s such a scary thing especially after infertility! Praying you’re doing well! ❤
Hi doc, have daughter who has had 3 miscarriages,2 of them were twins and at 28weeks become iufds.All found to have blood cots in placenta.latest pregnancy she was on progesterone and aspirin but still lost.kindly help
Thanks for your rich knowledge, it helps. By the way, was your outcome a good one eventually? ❤🎉
Thank you so much for this informational video, it helped a lot to stay positive..
Hi im having this right now im on 6weeks5days right now im praying that it will heal on its own.,had misacriage last 2020 and so afraid when isaw ders a blood,im having light bleeding on and off hoping this pregnancy will be a healthy one soon,praying for all mom who's been diagnose with same🙏🏼
I am experiencing the same Jenifer. I was at the ER last night, they fund a huge hematoma so the de was not really positive. Baby have a heart rate 98 he said it’s ok but not very strong. So now I am in my bed and waiting to see how it will turn out. How are you ? How big is your hematoma ?
@@anitabonita4546 how are u now ?
Currently 11 weeks and 3 days and had this happen to me. The er doc was confident that at this time I am not having a miscarriage and it was just a subchorionic hematoma as there was a heart beat and no ultra sound on the weekends but I'll call and inform my ob tomorrow as well. Currently no cramps and the bleeding has stopped trying to stay hopeful that's why I'm here to learn more about this
How are thing going now ?
This happened to me a few days ago , this is my 5th pregnancy just over 7 weeks I feel a gush of blood and as I’m completely unaware of this happening I automatically think it’s a loss . Then I ask on my birthing group on Facebook and it’s not uncommon and seems to happen mostly around 7-8 weeks with a few exceptions. I’m so curious why 7ish weeks? Also I’m greatly relieved as I’ve suffered one miscarriage and it was devastating as anyone who has will know. I’m so grateful to learn that this isn’t dire
Is the recommendation not to walk too much or not to pick up your toddler a good recommendation in the case of SCH?
Progesterone injection or tablet after pregnancy confirmation will reduce the risk of subchronic haemorrhage??
Plz guide
Thank you so much for sharing, it was very helpful
Im nine weeks and i been to the ER. The baby is fine cervix closed but i am bleeding, they had no diagnosis and i been told to bedrest.
This is so helpful. My wife is going through a similar thing at 6 weeks pregnant. She went to the ER and she has been scheduled for an ultrasound scan tomorrow. Fingers crossed
Any news?
Any news ??
Is she okay?
What was the end of your story? Did you end up having a healthy pregnancy and healthy birth?
Super helpful thank you. Great video ❤
What is the differentation between SCH and threatened abortion ? Please give me answer
Have been bleeding since Friday💔I went for utrasound on Sunday and the baby was still there growing,,have been given some medicines to increase the levels of progesterone but am still bleeding..it's been 5days now..am so scared
Now r u okay sis
I started spotting from 6weeks 4 days. Today I'm at 9weeks 2 days. Till now 3 episodes of sudden dark and fresh blood other than spotting.. I was freaking out and ended up at ER for 2 times. In the middle of the time I also met my OB At 7th week. At that time, they couldn't diagnose anything. But 4 days back in ER they diagnosed me as SCH. Though it is small but I'm freaking out. Till now I had 3 times of USG and all of them showed alive IUP with good fetal heart rate. Tomorrow is my routine appointment with OB. Let's see what she says.
How are you now
I am good Alhamdulillah. There is no bleeding at all. I am at my 14th now.
I'm 11 weeks and 4 days pregnant, but it is 2 days now. I'm bleeding so badly with clutch and pains on the side,back, belly, urine bloody. I don't know. I feel like moving a lot, and it is like I have more than one babies This pregnancy is my 6th baby. And my first one that experienced this. Should I go to the hospital?
Thank you Doctor, this was very helpful
I am currently 4weeks 3days. I woke up with light spotting which later resulted to heavy bleeding with clots. I’m so scared since this is my first pregnancy. I really don’t want to lose this pregnancy. If the bleeding continues tomorrow I will most likely visit the doctor. After watching this video and seeing people’s comments I feel kind of relieved but still scared though
Any update ?
I passed heavy bleeding with clots in the week of 9th. I was having heavy bleeding for 3 days then it turned into very light brown discharge. Currently i am 16 week pregnant and i still pass brown discharge daily. They found SCH in the 14week of ultrasound. It is 5cm. Doctor is unable to answer if its a large, small or medium. I am 37 years old. Currently i have no answers😢
How are you?
I had twice and miscarriaged both times after that, now I am praying not to have subchorionic hematoma- how to prevent it?
Thank you for this video , very informative ❤
I am 37 with my first pregnancy. From the 8th week , I had heavy bleeding with a clot that repeats every 4 days, and now I am 10 weeks and I still have heavy bleeding. The size of the hematoma was small the first time, but in the control ultrasound, it got bigger every time, and the fetus had heart beat , I am going through many scary days, I hope my fetus will stay healthy😔😔😔😔why my bleeding happen every 4 days??on and off
When you had yours, did you limit exercise and just take things easy?
I'm 8w today & got the call that a small sch is present near where the placenta is forming - baby is on track growth wise and heart beat is 153... is the risk higher if mine is near the placenta? I only have had mild cramping, no bleeding thank the Lord. Please someone answer 😢
1st ultrasound, they found a sac but no embryo. 2nd ultrasound they found a embryo with a heartbeat.... 3rd ultrasound only 3 weeks apart........ No baby anymore. Just the sac that it grew big. 😢 Waiting for another ultrasound, for 2nd opinion.... Or should I give up already?
I had this but the doctor just dismissed it when I asked her what it was! She just said oh it’s nothing to worry about instead of explaining it!
Do you still have pregnancy symptoms like tender breast?
Hey Am 6weeks pregnant I didn't an ultrasound and it says there's a mild subchorionic hemorrhage and I have been given metronidazole Neomycin and Nystatin pessaries and nervous do I go ahead and use them
I have a very small hematoma right now. I’m 8 weeks pregnant. I haven’t had any bleeding but it’s still scary.
i am 5w3d pregnant after a FET of 5 day embryo. I had a gush of blood with 2 small clots (I think they're not tissues) yesterday that filled a liner. Blood test shows my progesterone is low so additng prog oil (on top of my prometrium and suppositories). My clinic won't scan me for another week. I'm freaking out. I'm asking dr. google every other second and checking my liner every 20 mins. The prog oil is making my hip hurt. I'm a tiny women and 40. Any insight or opinion would help.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience , i have the SCH and i have started having bleeding episodes from the 9th week no i am the 10h week , i have appointment for Ultrasound tommorow i am very anxious especialy the blood works shows decreasing level of HCG 😢😢
