I started to bleed a little bit of pink blood this afternoon. I am 6w3d today. My first ultrasound was supposed to be Thursday.
I frantically called my doctor and they told me to come in for an ultrasound. They see a tiny tiny subchorionic bleed. But they also saw a tiny tiny baby with a heartbeat of 160. :-). He measured at 6w1d.
They are going to check it weekly to make sure it doesn't get any bigger. And they told me to stay off of my feet as much as possible.
I'm so happy for that little beating heart, but I'm pretty terrified too.
Love of my life baby boy born 11/11. One and done not by choice; 3 years of TTC yielded 4 MMC and 2 CPs, through 4 IUIs and 2 IVFs. Focusing on making the world a better place instead...and running.

Update: the doctor called me back. They are making me work from home ffor 4 weeks. I kind of didn't think it was a big deal, but now I'm getting really scared!

Glad the SCH is tiny and that you saw the heartbeat! That's great that you can work from home. I had a pretty bad SCH with the twins, and I wasn't able to stay home but I did spend every non-working moment in bed, and I think that (and drinking a bunch of water) really helped.
That's a great hb for 6w3d. When I had my appointment at that same time the hb was 122. I hope the bleeding clears up for you and that working from home goes well.

I am glad that the heartbeat and measurements were good. Sorry you have this stress. Hopefully the doctor is just being overly cautious with having you work from home. Hang in there, ursulabuffay. Hugs.
