14w Heavy Bleeding, fetus looks normal?

Question

I am 14 weeks today. Last night while playing with my daughters I felt some wetness, which immediately turned in to a huge gush so I ran to the bathroom, I knew it was blood. Tons of it. Didnt have a pad but if i did, I would have completely soaked 2 in 30 minutes. I went the the e.r, blood still flowing quite heavily. Ultrasound done & baby was kicking & moving around, heart was beating. He or she looked absolutely beautiful. I was told as of now miscarriage is still a threat. I just tears me apart thinking I saw my baby there and wont get to see him/her moving ever again. Placenta is low but they are unsure if that's the cause of the bleeding. They didn't tell me much besides to take it easy and follow up tomorrow. Anyone been through this??? I certainly never have.

Sometimes bleeding can be a one time thing.  I would definitely follow their instructions about taking it easy and do what you can to completely rest.  Blood can be irritating to the uterus, so whatever you can do to rest is great.

Here's the good news - if you can make it another 10 weeks, your baby has an excellent chance of survival.  Longer than that is even better, but 24 weeks is the first number to aim for.

(((HUGS))) and wishing you, and your baby, well.

My friend had the same thing happen. She ended up giving birth to a healthy baby boy. Don't over stress yourself worrying about it, stay calm

Been there. Had bleeding like that almost thru my 20th week with my first pregnancy. I did what they said and kept off my feet and he was born healthy.
