Scared of another bleed 😢

Ive had about 6-7 bleeds this pregnancy but my last one was at about 11 weeks. I’m 19 weeks now and keep feeling like it’s happening/ is going to happen to the point I’m having nightmares about it. I had a scan at 12 & 16 weeks the bleed is still there BUT has finally stopped growing, it’s not getting any smaller on scans tho 🫤 I’m so scared I’m doing something wrong

I bled from like… 12 weeks til 16 weeks. Every 2-3 days sometimes, sometimes every day. It was insane. But around 14 weeks it stopped and hasn’t come back, and I’m now 28 weeks, no issues. I did do bed rest for like the first week and a half of bleeding, and basically stopped exercising. I had weekly OB appointments while bleeding. Im tentatively exercising now, but going to play it safe still to avoid preterm labor.

@Esther mine was about 5-11 weeks I had bleeds almost weekly. I tried to rest as much as possible but I also have a toddler so it was easier said than done. I’m not really worried about baby rn because I can feel movements but the doctor was worried about baby having space to grow because of it and I’ve been having really realistic dreams where I’m waking up covered in blood (even tho it never actually happened like that it was always during the day, well at least when I was awake) I’m just really scared just now. When they stopped for you at 14 weeks did you ever feel like it happening again?

No.. like 2 days before my 16 weeks I had a blood clot the size of my palm come out, and that freaked me out. But since then I feel like I’ve been having a normal experience, no more spotting. I talked to my aunt, and she bled too, and her advice was that the uterus/womb becomes more stable as it gets settled in/bigger? So after I felt the baby move, I relaxed a lot more. After about 2 weeks of no bleeding, I felt pretty safe. But of course I know my history so am taking the rest of the pregnancy easy and not straining myself. I can’t imagine going through it with a toddler.. that sounds rough. Those dreams are intense too! :( Edit: corrected my weeks. 12-16 was my duration
