Should i go to work tomorrow?
So I am about 13 week and had bleeding over the weekend. Like heavy period bleeding. Baby is fine, Dr saw a clot in the uterus that is causing the bleed, I am also on Lovenox/aspirin. i am still bleeding but I think it's expected until the clot dissolves.
I feel like an idiot for not asking the dr this and not knowing myself but is it a good idea for me to work while still bleeding? My job requires a lot of walking, being on my feet and quickly walking up stairs, sometimes many flights.
Technically I'm ok but I never bled before so I don't know if this is a minor issue or major issue that I should keep off my feet. I hard for me to call out sick, it inconveniences a lot of people. I already cut my hours in half as it is.
I figure many of you ladies unfortunately may have experienced this and could give your opinion.

I would say if you are worrying about it and you have days to take off and call the dr. tomorrow. Or leave early if you get worried in anyway. Can you maybe take an elevator? or go but go slow/take it easy.
I have never experienced this.
Feel better!

I would probably say stay off your feet. But I'd call the OB today, even if I had to call the emergency # and ask. That's what they are there for.

I had bleeding during my pregnancy, my Dr always had me stay off my feet until my bleeding subsided.

Considering the job description you wrote, I would stay home and off my feet for at least an extra day.

I was always told to stay off my feet and stop baby aspirin, though continue lovenox. The baby aspirin could promote the bleeding, so definitely make sure if your dr meant you should stop taking it temporarily! I'd stay home.
