Subchorionic Hemmorhage...please go away!

Ugh, this pesky bleed is causing some troubles...Nothing major, but it's making me quite uncomfortable.  Wednesday night my tummy was upset and I was actually having some braxton hicks contractions, no big deal normally, but I could really feel it.  Thursday morning I had spotting, totally expected with the SCH, it has to go somewhere.  The problem with this is, no woman in her right mind wants to see any bleeding at all while pregnant, it leaves an uneasy feeling and a mind full of questions that need to be answered...right now!  My Dr. got me in late in the day, and as I arrived he got me right in.  He was concerned that I had come alone, I certainly didn't want to be there by myself, but my hubbies mode of transportation, the Metrolink train was canceled when he tried to catch it.  The next one was delayed as well, leaving me at the appointment totally alone.  In the back of my mind I was thinking this has to be from the bleed and there is nothing more to it, but, I didn't feel secure in that feeling until I could see my little one happy and healthy. 

The Dr. kept the screen pointed towards him when he started the ultrasound, and to my relief he said, Baby is alive.  Music to my ears!  He then commented several times that this baby is really active, and then turned the screen to me so I could see.  Little one was bouncing all over the screen, active is an understatement!  He couldn't believe how much movement was going on and I was happily surprised to see the acrobat bounce about. 

Unfortunately the bleed is still moderate in size and will continue to be a problem until it is completely gone...who knows how long that will take, until then I remain on restricted activity to keep it from growing.  This will no doubt only be the beginning of questionable days and not feeling so great!  Apparently any blood in the uterus is an irritant, and until it's gone, more contracting and irritation and at some point there will be some significant bleeding when it decides it's time for it all to come out.  

My reassurance right now is knowing that the little bean is safe and sound, and growing strong.  I was able to see the baby's profile, so cool! 
So much has changed in so little time, it's amazing to me the difference even in just one week!
