I agree with Rachel. Take things very easy for the next couple of days. No lifting, no housework, just rest. If the blood is there only when you wipe then things are OK if it gets any heaver then get it checked. If it does not stop within the next couple of days get it checked.
I found this site through googling SCH. I'm so glad that it is somewhat current, after being started in 2006. I found out two weeks ago, after pretty significant bleeding that I have SCH 2" (maybe 5 cm) which is large. I am 8 wks pregnant with twins. After thinking back to a m/c I had many years ago at 10 wks, I think, eventhough I wasn't diagnosed, that I had SCH then. Now, I don't know how this going to go. I just feel hopeless in that I have four active children a job and husband. I don't see how it is remotely possible for me to go on bedrest. I had a u/s today which revealed that the SCH is relatively the same size as it was two weeks ago. I haven't had any bleeding since 2 1/2 wks ago (which is a good sign but I do feel it's just a matter of time). I have told myself that I'm in the first trimester and there is time for me and the babies to heal. This is all new to me, complications, in that I have run 5 miles up to the day of delivery in prior pregnancies, Now I feel like I have jeopardized these babies, myself and my children. I can't get myself excited about this pregnancy, as it the pregnancy was a complete surprise and twins were even a bigger surprise. I don't consider myself a negative pessimistic person but I certainly am over this pregnancy and SCH. I was looking at maternity clothes today and I just thought don't buy anything b/c you don't know. Do you feel like you can't bring yourself to be involved in your pregnancy as you are living on borrowed time?
