Has anyone experienced a Hematoma? Does this make my pregnancy high risk now? From what the doctor told me, the hematoma is between the placenta and the uterus. I am scared to do much now.
We went to the emergency room Sunday morning at about 12:30 am because I was bleeding a lot, and had cramps.
Hospital got us in right away, took blood work, but no ultrasound. About 5 hours passed and we hadn’t seen a doctor. I asked for a ETA and she said another 5 hours. We had been crying a lot already (assuming we lost the baby) and had not slept since the day before, so we decided to check out, go home and sleep, and go to a different hospital later. We did just that and that hospital got us in right away, brought us in for an ultrasound and to our surprise the baby was well, in the right spot, 183 bpm - we cried in relief. That is when we were informed of the hematoma. We were out of that hospital in an hour! I am still super upset with the first hospital. I am now even more scared than I was before.
My family doctor didn’t seem to need to see me, just ordered another ultrasound and more blood work. 🤔
