This afternoon I went to the bathroom and there was a lot of blood. Of course I instantly went to the hospital in which they had addmitted me. I was then given 2 ultrasounds and the doc concluded that the baby is fine. Still having some cramping and bleeding while I pee. This is very scarey as he didn't tell me anything. No need to worry is what he had said. I'm just trying to figure out if this is normal or if I'm going to lose this baby. Im due for another ultrasound on Monday.

The baby was moving around quite a bit and the heart beat is still strong. But the bleeding continues

When they gave you release papers from the ER what did the instructions say in regard to further bleeding and or cramping?

I'm shocked that they just sent you home if you're bleeding that
Much.

How much blood is a lot? Are you filling up a pad? If so, how many hours in between having to change pads?

The ultrasound doesn't like, if the doctor says baby is okay then
You have no reason to doubt him. If you're still concerned then it's totally within your rights to get a second opinion.

Not filling up a pad. Though the blood only seems to happen while I pee. My best friend was with me while this was happening and like the doc had said. Not to worry. I just don't understand with this kind of bleeding there isn't a explanation. Next ultrasound is on Monday and the doc had said maybe they will figure out why the bleeding is happening. But the baby is fine?

I wonder if it could be a bad UTI.I have had bleeding with them before.
Seems odd they did not give her more information or help in understanding what is going on.
Knowing how women are about their unborn,docs are usually quite supportive in that area.
Did she really go to the E.R?

Call the hospital you went to and ask to speak to the doctor who saw you.
What did your release papers say from the ER?

Faythe · Sep 19, 2009, 06:38 PM

We don't get release papers. Though I'm going to call the doc now and see if I can talk to him. I was in our er room in the hospital.

Faythe · Sep 19, 2009, 06:43 PM

No luck getting ahold of the doctor. I'm wondering if maybe I'm worrying a little much. Both ultrasounds that he did today said that the baby was moving around and the heart beat was strong. Just really scared because I don't want to lose this baby. My daughter is going to be six next month so I really wanted to have another.

If you didn't really go to the hospital,now is the time to do so.
I'm sorry if I am not believing you but I just find it odd that the doctor would leave you hanging this way.
Tell us the truth and forgive me if Im wrong but we can help you better if you are honest.
Very sorry if I am wrong.

Forgive me ,I just think its terrible that a doctor allowed you to leave without giving you any information about what is happening.
We get so many people on here who say they have been to a doc when they haven't so I jumped the gun.
I'm really very sorry.
I wish you the very best.
My sons are 6 yrs.apart and I loved it.At 29 my eldest still babies the 22 yr.old.
Its great :)

Well thank you for the information, my family doc isn't opened on weekends, but regardless I would still go to the hospital then him for something like this. The hospitals out here only keep you if its life or death, but the bleeding has seems to slow down, almost stopped. Still scared though. Its hard doing this alone while my fiancé is out in another province working.

I just wonder if you could have a UTI.
I have had them so bad as to bleed.

Faythe · Sep 19, 2009, 07:31 PM

I will ask them on Monday if that is the case. Though it doesn't burn while I pee. I have had them numerous times as well, but not to the point of bleeding. They didn't do a urine test today so maybe that is the case

You said seeing blood when you pee made me think UTI.
Also you get that pelvic cramping when you pee.I have before without the burning. Just cramping ,spasms when you pee.
Best of luck dear and again please forgive me for jumping the gun.
An update would be great,if you are so inclined.
Take care. :)
