hi rossik, sry to hear about ur losses and congradz on the pregnancy, i know its hard but try to get as much rest as possible..i got 2 young girls 19 months and 8 months but i live with my mum so she helps out wen she can..i was diagnosed at 6weeks and ive neva had any bleeding, not sure if the bed rest had anything to do with it but im one of the luky ones that never had that..im 18 weeks now and all has been going great..my last scan was at 14 weeks and baby was measuring 5 days ahead so all is going well..i have my next scan this tuesday the 25th and i cant wait to see how much my lil man has grown..ive got a doppler and listen to the heartbeat every day for reassurance but heamatoma/heamorrage is very common during pregnancy and the majority of the time they reabsorb before 20 weeks and sometimes they stay longer, but as long as they are not interfering with the growth of the baby then it doesnt matter how big it is..at my 14week scan i had a few of them and altogether they measured almost 11cm, so thats a pretty big clot..if u have any questions or need any advice feel free to ask...goood luk and i hope all goes well, ohh and one more thing drink as much water as u can, ive been told that drinking lots of water can help reabsorb the clot.
