Suggest Treatment For Vaginal Bleeding During Pregnancy

Hello, I am around 33weeks pregnant and i have had six severe bleeds, i Live in Port Lincoln SA and have been flown over to Adelaide Womans and Childrens Hospital by the RFDS twice now. The doctors there want to kep me in hospital for WEEKS! i am 19years of age an just cannot handle it, i have spoken to multiple women and done a tonne of research and feel it is a huge risk to be sitting around waiting for another bleed that could at worst kill my baby and I.. I would love some advice on all this and possiably a number on were to find a good doctor that will listen to what i want and take this situation more seriosly than everyone else has been.. i have had heeps of steroid injections and feel i am further along in my pregnancy than the doctors believe, i ould like to either have a section or go into labour ASAP for the saftey of my baby and I.

If you have repeated bleeding episode then it's placenta previa. actually your baby is premature that is why you are getting steroid injection for fetal lung maturity. you need complete bed rest and hospitalisation. If you again have bleeding episode then you will definitely land up in cesarean section.
