Congrats Laura!
I had a SCH with Matthew, no pre-e though I did get really swollen and spilled protein (like 700ish mg)...but we made it to 37 wks and my bp and everything stayed stable.

Re: 8 weeks pregnant today!
I had SCH with baby #4, and did have PE at the very end, but no HELLP, and baby boy is perfectly fine. I had never had an SCH before, but we had lots of first with his pregnancy! An SCH, a low lying placenta, and at the end I had low amniotic fluid. In other words, every pregnancy, just like every child, is different.

Re: 8 weeks pregnant today!
Horray Laura! Happy 8 weeks! As you know and I know there is no way to know for sure what our pregnancy outcomes will be. I don't think that having the SCH will be a precursor to how your pregnancy will go. And as you know having had a healhy pregnancy with Carter only gives you better chances this time for the same outcome! But with that said, all of of who have gotten as sick as we have are scared silly and nervous and read into every symptom....Hang in there mommy!

Re: 8 weeks pregnant today!
I am now 12 weeks along with my second after severe HELLP with first. At 8 weeks I was diagnosed with a SCH. I have not been back for a scan, so I don't know how things are going with it. I have not had a bleed yet, but I am worried about it. I would have liked to start out with less drama from the beginning, but I have no control over things like this, so I'm trying to be as calm and accepting as can be.
It's hard for us HELLP mamas to be calm about anything.

8 weeks pregnant today!
Hi everyone! I am back. Some of you may remember me! at 6 weeks pregnant I was diagnosed with a Sub chronic Hemorrhage (blood clot in uterus) It was under 2in. I did bleed with it just for bit and went in for an ultrasound and baby was doing great. I do have factor V any correlation? Anyone experience SCH? I of course can't help but wonder if this is a precursor to how my pregnancy is going to go. That and my baseline at 7 weeks was 152 and with my son who I did not get PE with it was 62.
