SCH detected in 2nd trimester
Has anyone experienced this? I went for my 16 week check up and they finally found the reason I have had 2 bleeds before (once at 14+3 and once at 15+3). I have a SCH of 3cms below my placenta. She said it is unusual no one saw it before, even after I had bled they didnt see it (although they didnt do a vaginal scan so that is probably why).
I am now classed as high risk and will get scans every 2 weeks... I should also take things easy and am on pelvic rest. Has anyone had a hematoma during the 2nd trimester? I think most women experiene this early on in pregnancy.....

Nini- I had one diagnosed with my last pregnancy. It started around 9-10 weeks and I bleed until the beginning of my 3rd trimester. It was always old blood. I was really surprised because I had never had any pregnancy complications before. My son recently turned one and he is doing great. It is very scary though. I hope the bleeding stops soon for you and you can enjoy the rest of your pregnancy.

Thanks Newyorkmum... Having aSCH diagnosed early on is the usual thing that happens, I am worried because mine didnt even appear until after 12 weeks and I had fresh blood at 15 weeks.... but so far no more bleeding apart from the 2 previous times. I should stop googling it and freaking myself out (apparently 2nd trimester SCH is more worrying than 1st trimester and fresh blood is always more worrying than old blood, sigh). Anyway, I can feel baby kicking away, so he seems to be doing ok Thanks for letting me know your son arrived safely xx

Oh, Nini, keep us updated! You are going to be in my prayers! I'm sure they'll keep their eyes on it and do everything they can....rest may be the best thing.
So happy for you Treens, congratulations Sent from my SM-A225F using Tapatalk
