Babies gave me a scare last night!

I write this with hopeful anticipation but am worried that my pregnancy may be in jeporady.

Last night I got up during a storm to use the restroom. I couldn't believe what I saw. Bright blood everywhere in the toilet. I started screaming and crying for my DH to help me. He saw the blood and immediately called the doctor. I was told to come in.

At 2: 30am We rushed as mad to get to the hospital. Never before had I felt such vulnerability in all my life. Never did I plead to God with all my heart for two people I never met to be ok. I cried with the thought of loosing one of my precious twins when week after week I saw them together on the ultrasound. They are a package deal and I couldn't imagine my life without both of them. For the first time in my life I felt the same vulnerability my mother felt for me each time she couldn't help me with my gasping for air, numerous hospital stays, and just not being able to do anything.

Scott and I called the grandmas and when we got to the hospital I felt a deep pain in my lower abdoman I never felt before. He immediately got the wheel chair. The doctor came in and said at 14 weeks their is not much they can medically do. If I was to miscarry they couldn't stop it yet if I was 24 weeks along they could deliver.

I cried so hard.. I don't think I ever cried that way in all my life.

She catherized me to see if she could get urine. The test showed no UTI. Next she got out the doppler. Oh how much I used to love that thing but now the thought of her putting it on my stomache without hearing one or both of them knocked the wind out of me..

Both babies were heard. I couldnt believe it. Both had HB's around 180. Next they did an ultrasound and said they both measured 14weeks 3 days. No one could tell me where the bleeding was coming from . Next she checked my cervix and stated it was closed and looked normal.

Sending me home we had to get back to my doctor at 10am for her to see me. She said my excessive coughing in the morning with cf caused this bleed. That my cervix was fryable and that it should do no harm to the babies but still I am scared.

This morning I sat on the toilet again and wiped. No blood.. I started coughing hard while still on the toilet and the bleeding began again and subsided.

I pray these babies will be ok. I was just getting used to the idea of two of them but am now paralized with fear something will happen.

I am 14 weeks today and you would think after 12 weeks I would stop worrying..
When can I finally breathe knowing we will have two babies?

I guess I am getting my first lesson of what it truly means to be a mom!

I had bleeding with my dd's pregnancy and it too scared the living poop out of me (i had had a previous m/c, so I was espcially sensitive). I was using progesterone suppositories and I guess they make the cervix extra engorged and sensitive - I also had a "fry spot" on my cervix. I am happy to tell you that my bleeding did stop as soon as I stopped the suppositories - I am willing to bet yours will heal up too. it is so frightening though, I know, and I don't think I truly relaxed the whole time - hang in there - sounds like you have two healthy babes in there!

I'm so sorry you have to go through this. I'm so relieved to hear the babies are happy and healthy in there.

As for the cause of the bleeding, I'm sorry to say, sometimes, there is no definition. It sucks. I don't agree with the doctor, saying the couging "caused" the bleeding. I can see that the coughing might force some bleeding out (into the toilet), bleeding that was already there, but it certainly won't cause bleeding. I'm scratching my head thinking what was she thinking to tell you that? But hey, I don't have an MD.

I'll be thinking about you a lot this week. Hang in there. Maybe a call to the peri wouldn't be such a bad idea at this point? Did the ultrasound show the placement of the placentas? I'm wondering about placenta previa, but it seems a little late to start. But I never had the condition, so I'm not sure when it can start. I'm also sorry to say the worrying never stops. It always feels "too soon" no matter what stage the pregnancy is at. I hope the next 10 weeks (plus!) go by quickly. If you have the means, lay low, relax and just grow babies.
