So I'm at the ER due to shocking pain down my back and bad cramping. They are telling me that my baby's heartbeat is abnormally high. Has this happened to anyone? They can't explain why but they are telling me it's not right.

Did they tell you what the heartbeat is?

No. They just said it's past the normal range.

@dontblockmesis-imjustspeakingfacts Ok. Hold on

They don't know what they are talking about. It's 179. I'm so pissed.

see I figured it was going to be in range. Don’t let them work you up.

I guess now they are checking my electrolights? Anytime I ask them something they are very short. It's like nobody is on the same page.

I notice a lot of times when I’ve gone to the Er while pregnant, a lot of them aren’t specialized in ob/gyn so they give a very generalized statement/facts. Their specialty is generally trauma. Are they trying to say you may be miscarrying? Did they discuss the ultrasound or just the hb?

If there are answers you are wanting, kindly and firmly tell them to “stop” and let them know you are confused and would like clarification. The ER is insanely busy so you have to snap them out of it all and make it known you want answers.

I wish I could look at my own chart.

Now they are saying I have a subchorionic hematoma and that I might lose the baby. I can't even see straight I'm so upset. I just want to leave.

that is pretty tiny if it’s in mm. My friend just last week was diagnosed with one that is 2.5cm. So over double the size of yours. They are not overly concerned and believe that it will clear on its own and all will be well. Definitely stay hydrated and follow up with your OB. Hers is technically a blood clot. She was already on some things to thin her blood anyways but definitely contact your ob and tell them these findings so they can look into it.

I'm going to give him a call tonight once I get home.
