The bleeding has STOPPED!

The bleeding has stopped. It is weird, my doctor really did not seem too concerned about the bleeding right now. It was like just a random question. "So, are you still bleeding, oh ok"

I do have to say, and I think this is weird, but I went from heavy bleeding to no bleeding in less than an hour.

I had a lot (!) of follies so it is possible that I was pregnant with more than one. My nurse said it was possible that maybe the blood is from a lost multiple.

I know lots of people have had some or a lot of bleeding during pregnancy, but with my history of m/c, it just totally freaks me out.

I actually have a friend that did not find out she was pregnant until about 3-4 months because she was having a "regular" period for a few months. She never took a test, she found out when she went to the doc for an xray and they asked the question "can you be pregnant" - she took a test then and thought she was JUST pregnant.

She went to her first ob appointment and she was already past her first trimester. So, I know bleeding can be common

I have been bleeding very heavy since Tuesday morning. I was using a tampon AND a pad that had to be changed every 1-2 hours. A normal period for me would be a tampon when I went to the bathroom - so every couple of hours. A box of tampons would last several cyles.

This time, I had to make a special trip to the bathroom. And I had to wear a pad as well. It really was so much blood. I was gettting up several times a night as well.

Well yesterday, I went to the bathroom and changed everything. Went about 2 hours later thinking I was going to have to change everything, and there was not a drop of blood on anything. Seriously, not a drop of blood.

So, I took caution to the wind and only wore a pad. There has been nothing on it since then, even overnight.

I am praying that the bleeding has stopped. I know that they next few weeks are going to be an emotional roller coaster.

  1. I don't know if yours was a period or lost multiple, but I have had periods like that. I don't have a period but probably twice a year (PCOS), so when I do get one, it's a DOOZY!
    Can't wait to hear some good news!

  4. Your HCG levels would have been MUCH higher with multiples...bleeding is the weirdest thing. Could have been a hemotoma...I read a blog where this girl had a HUGE one...she bled and was put on bedrest for weeks...early in pregnancy. She is still pregnant at 17 weeks. Good luck to you...
