31w4d

So I made it 2.5 days after being released before I started bleeding again. Luckily I was up at 3am when it started with a big gush of blood. I immediately got dressed and went to the local hospital again. It took them a while to find the baby which was real nerve wracking. Also in the few minute drive over I filled the whole pad with blood. I then had to wait 2 hours for the doctor to check me since they wanted the lab results back first. I was also cramping during this time so it wasn't fun. The doctor did a digital exam and pulled out an exam glove filled with blood and then proceeded to to me I wasn't really bleeding red and to go home and rest.

I told him to call Providence that they would wang to see me and have me sent by ambulance but he refused and said it isn't necessary and that if I felt like going there I could drive myself. I was ferious by this point and couldn't believe this doctor was going to send me home with heavy red bleeding just because I wasn't contracting and refused to call my hospital to speak to the high risk team.

I told the nurse to get the stuff off of me and thanks for wasting 2 hours of my time. I then showed her the pad on the bed and after wiping and said this is red. I don't know if they are color blind or what, but I think I know what bright red blood looks like since I have had almost every color of blood under the rainbow. I immediately exited the hospital and since I never the l&d floor before except in a stretcher I had no idea where I was outside. It took me 15 min of walking to find my car(I am duppose to be on bedrest). I was yelling help I don't know where I am but unfortunately since it was 5am the streets and outside hospital was completely vacant. I was so worried that the walking was going to make the bleed more. Finally found the ER entrance and my car and drove the 30 mile drive to Providence going 90 miles an hour in decent fog. I am lucky I didn't get killed but since they refused to send an ambulance I had no choice.
Of course by the time I got there my heart rate was in the 150s and the bleeding died do to a medium flow. The doctor seemed more concerned about my heart than the bleeding and it pissed me off because it was heavy but by then 3 hours had passed. She then tells me they will admit me but it is only because of my heart and says that I need to stop worrying and then asks if there is violence at home. This really pissed me off. The only this I am worried about is having another bleed. There was no reason for this bleed this morning. I was on full bedrest at home. I was doing nothing when this happened and I felt itching before the gush happened and the bleeding started.

Snyder the time I got brought up to a room another 3 hours had passed and the bleeding pretty much stopped to just a few x ant amounts on the pad. I am in her til tomorrow though.

I really don't know why this is happening. It is really nerve wracking and I don't know what to about it. Not to mention the doctors here don't realize how serious it is when it starts because by the time I get here it is on its way of stopping. I don't know why it does that. Like there is a pocket of blood that pools and then releases at once. I cs think of no other explanation.
