Ah... well, bleeding in early pregnancy is a common reason OB ultrasounds are ordered in ER, and Subchorionic hemorrhage is commonly the only abnormality noted.... no worries.... best of luck to u and the wife... I hope everything turns out beautifully with the new baby, fyi, encourage her to breastfeed, then u won't have to get up during the night for bottles

We had one of these early on in our first trimester. Heavy bleed. We had never heard of it and 100% knew that we had had a miscarriage. Went to the ER devastated.
They did an ultrasound there and found that the baby was fine. Saw our OBGYN the next day and everything was fine. Apparently, these are more common than people think but you don’t really hear about them.

My wife’s OB is awesome. I truly believe he is an advocate for her care and well being. I’m continually reminded of how awesome it is to have a great doctor.

Wife and I had the exact same thing happen on our last pregnancy. Small SCH that slowly shrunk over bout 12 weeks. Now we have a happy healthy 4 month old baby girl. It was very nerve wracking at first but the doctor never seemed concerned. As another poster said "if the doctor isnt concerned neither should you be", I cant stress this enough, you can absolutely drive yourself crazy thinking about the negative when instead you should be focused on what a great time this is in your life. It will be fine, congrats on the no secks for the next few weeks though

dont fret; I think this is same thing we just went through, little further in the pregnancy though. Sounds scary, but basically the blood will clot, then eventually come out. It will look like old blood. Only follow up issues is hair loss and chest tightness on your part, at least from my experience
Any docs feel free to correct me, but Im pretty sure this is what he is talking about. GL to you and your wife and lil one!

Thanks for that detailed feedback. It seems that you are in the business.
If so can you answer these:
Assume that this lesion remains throughout but we have a normal term, do this situation present opportunity for birth defects?
Is this in any way a bad thing for mom?
What is the percentage of the time that you see these in pregnancies? Out of that, what percentage ends up being zero complications?
Thanks a lot for your time.

They found it on ultrasound probably the same time as your wife, and the only thing different was no vaginal intercourse until it disappeared, which took probably 10-12 weeks.

I won't deny that.

No evidence that I am aware of to suggest this, and in my personal experience, I would definitively say no.
quote:

Nope, unless of course it becomes associated with EPL (early pregnancy loss), but remember that is generally the exception unless it is big and associated with significant vaginal bleeding. In other words, the condition in and of itself does not pose a primary threat to the mother's well-being.
quote:

Literature says 10-15% and I would say that feels pretty much correct. It's not normal, but it is pretty darn common in terms of "complications" related to early pregnancy.

Don't know a perfect answer to this, but when it is small and isolated and not associated with significant vaginal bleeding in the mom, it is almost always turns out to be nothing.

You are very welcome. Hope this makes you feel better. I know anytime anyone hears "abnormality" in association with pregnancy it can get really scary, really quickly, and sometimes it is hard to process what the Dr. is telling a patient/family in such a stressful scenario, even if the physician is a skilled communicator. Always ask questions, and get clarification if necessary - works best for everyone involved. Good Luck!

OP. Wife has/had one with significant vaginal bleeding. She’s now 22 weeks and the hematoma is gone and baby and her are fine as of last ultrasound 2 weeks ago.
She had her first significant bleed at 14 weeks and was on lift restriction and “pelvic rest” up until last week.
