So, I have two kids, both delivered by the same wonderful and sadly, now retired doctor. I live in a different state, and have a new doc that will be delivering my next child. I have already had two, uneventful pregnancies, and was working on my third, when on the first day of my third trimester I started bleeding really bad. I checked myself into the hospital, where no one examined me...but my doc admitted me for 24 hours so he could monitor me because drugs (street drugs, not advil) cause sudden bleeding!! I don't, and have never done drugs!! He then ordered blood work without telling me what is was for. And when whatever the results were came back...I was released inside the 24 hours. I am healthy, I exercise daily, the baby is developing great...why the suspision?? I was really irratated with him!!

If your new to the town it could be
the doctor though you had no prenatal care
and that is why he did this.
I know a friend who went threw some thing
like this. She had little prenatal care after
she moved and she went into labor and they ran
all kinds of test on her.
But do put your feet up. You my even want to
put a pillow under your feet.
I would have asked for another doctor to
or gone to the hospital board or some one
higher up than the doctor and complained
or filed some type of report with the hospital.
Good luck on your 3rd child
