I was in the ICU for a couple of days and then released to the OB floor to recover for a week. I was released from the hospital with only the typical 6 week follow up appointment, so I'm not in the care of any specialist. I am speaking with Dr. Cope from Mayo this week though, so I'm hoping to get more answers. As for the underlying issue, im not sure. I had a previa, and some other risk factors for hemorrhage. The hemorrhage was a slow bleed within my uterus. Ive been told it was because my uterus didn't contract like it should have. I started showing symptoms about 10 hours after birth, but my bleeding wasnt discovered for another 6 hours, so i think its just because i was bleeding for so long.

My baby is doing amazing though he's a perfectly healthy baby. You can't even tell he was born at 33 weeks, he's at the top of the growth chart even! Definitely blessed in that area!
