Abruption question

I had a placenta abruption in last pregnancy due to a reaction to medication causing me to swell up in the vagina for quite some time and staff ignoring it for a while until that happened. What are the chances of an abruption again ? Especially if no medication/induction next time Also let's say it happened at home, would I just die? As they had me in the theatre pretty instantly when it happened before and I was in hospital on the ward already luckily. Anyone else had one and then been find next pregnancy or had multiple pregnancies then had one n still had another and fine?

Following! From a google search I think you are more prone to abruption again and you should be treated as a high risk pregnancy. With extra monitoring. I’d say if you have any vaginal bleeding to get to the hospital ASAP! Was your previous abruption really bad? Or slight? Did they immediately get baby out? I’m wondering because at my last ultrasound the tech said it looked like the placenta “wasn’t completely attached.” That was her wording. She didn’t seem super concerned but she didn’t elaborate and booked me for another ultrasound (next Monday) after the appointment I googled and it said that would be an abruption 👀 I was also in a car accident while pregnant and I think that’s what would have caused it

22 hours of the vaginal pessary and me telling them I had pains and swelling to be ignored so I do think that was the initial cause but still worrying as it happens to people anyway. Bleeding started and within 20 seconds gush gush gush uncontrollably bleeding heavy like never seen before covered the bed floor midwife n she screamed n pulled buzzer they ran me to theatre and I mean ran n screamed it to everyone around. They said they had minutes and she was out fast

So i guess the question is, if that happened unexpected at home, your screwed surely? And baby too

Was induced prematurely too

From what I read, slow abruption as in through known cause and more mild is monitored closely but please rest and go to hospital if any changes as always better be safe
