Guest guest Posted September 5, 2002 Report Share Posted September 5, 2002 I saw some discussion about the manual removal of retained placenta and I wanted to add my experience. When I began hemorrhaging 3 weeks after my son was born, and took an ambulance to the ER, I had about 3 different doctors inserting their hand (at different times) in my uterus and pulling out clots. I was screeching in pain, and was actually trying to prevent their hands from touching me by wriggling away from them on the gurney. They couldn't believe that I was still conscious. Eventually my doctor arrived and took control, but I'll never forget the time I spent in that ER. Also, I had a miserable night in the hospital following my son's birth. It should have been so joyous. But apparently my uterus wasn't contracting so nurses kept coming in and pushing down on it. I was bleeding alot too and one of the nurses even questioned whether the resident on call should come see me, but no one took it that far. Since the pain was intense and I couldn't sleep, I finally requested that my son be brought in to bed with me and I just lay there, with him staring up at me offering me more comfort than any hospital staff could. I'm just wondering if this was noted on my charts and if so, why my doctor didn't want to see me again that week to check me. Tricia M.

Guest guest Posted September 5, 2002 Report Share Posted September 5, 2002 Tricia, That sounds absolutly awful! After my son was delivered by c-section, I had a fever that noone could explain. Then two months after that, with no bleeding at all, I had this huge clot come out (not to be graphic, but I had to pull it out) Of course I was distraught over this--my doctor just kinda blew it off and said that it wasnt the placenta. Now, here I am--with ashermans. I really don't think many doctors know anything about ashermans, or consequences of a retained placenta--which puts us in such a terrible situation. ------------------------------------------------ On Thu, 05 Sep 2002 17:19:03 -0000, " mommysangel62800 " wrote: > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 5, 2002 Report Share Posted September 5, 2002 , Speaking of this clot....Does this happen with people who do not end up with AS? My neighbor had a baby 8 weeks ago, no period, but big clot! Should she be worried? AS did not even cross my mind! Unfortunately, she did not call her doctor because her baby has health issues she is dealing with. brenda@... wrote: Tricia,That sounds absolutly awful!
