Threatened miscarriage...I'm scared!

Today out of nowhere I went to the bathroom and there was a LOT of bright red blood! I'd had some very light, brownish spotting the last few weeks but nothing like this!
Called dh told him to come home, then called obs office and being they weren't open I was directed to the women's center. Went there but being I'm not 14 weeks yet they took me to the ER!
Ultrasound was done almost immediately and baby's ok. He found the hb and baby was jumping and moving all over the place! That eased my mind a lot! He looked around to make sure my uterus, overies, placenta and all that was ok! He made dh and I feel a lot better! They couldn't figure out why I was bleeding like that. I know its not uncommon to bleed during pregnancy but it doesn't make it any less terrifying! The Dr. Said its a threatened miscarriage and although things are ok right now it does raise the risk! Anyone ever deal with this?
I've had a few friends tell me they dealt with it and had healthy babies! I'm on bedrest and already have an appointment with the high risk fetal specialist this week. I'm so grateful baby's ok but I'm also scared out of my mind that something will go wrong! Trying to stay positive!

How scary.  I'll be keeping you and baby in my prayers.  I know it's hard not to stress out in this moment, but as much as it is possible, I hope you'll try.  In the meantime, you can catch up on all the DVD's you haven't seen ye****ch bad TV, and just take it easy.  *hugs*

Hugs to both u and hubby....how scary! Im glad to hear baby is moving around. Take it easy and try not to worry to much....prayers going up now for a healthy you and baby.

I'm so happy that everything is ok with the US!  Has the bleeding stopped now?  I had this with my son around 14 weeks or so and it truly is terrifying.    Lasted on and off for a few weeks then stopped.  My son was born very healthy at 38 weeks... so stay positive!

I've got you in my prayers to..  Keep resting and stay positive.  I know how scary this is....  I hope all will be ok!!

Very best wishes to you!

It let up and by the time I went to bed was just spotting, this morning there's more of it buts its brownish red, not the bright red it was yesterday!

i hate that you are having to experience this! i pray that you and the baby do well and rest as much as possible and take it easy!!

This is a good sign that it's letting up and becoming brownish!  Take care !!

How scary!  I hope the bleeding continues to subside and go away.  I had a gushing bleeding incident happen when I was 17 weeks and 2 days pregnant.  Mine ended up being from a small part of my placenta coming away from the wall of my uterus.  I went to go for dinner and shopping with a friend and when I got out of my car to go into her apartment, I felt this warm gush of liquid between my legs.....scares the crap out of you!  Thankfully my baby was OK and at my last ultrasound, the tear had completely healed and all is as it should be!  Take it easy and rest as they suggested and keep us updated!  Praying nothing but the best for you!
