Tell me I am being irrational

Early on in pregnancy (14 weeks) I suffered a huge bleed which resulted in the discovery of a large hematoma from the placenta. Since then I had a few more bleeds but nothing since 20 weeks and at a scan I had at 25 weeks the hematoma had completely resolved. However the consultant was very clear in explaining that at any point I could have another bleed which would then be classed as a placental abruption and they would birth the baby. I have had some spotting this weekend and went for a check yesterday, I hadn't gone in for reduced movements but as standard procedure I went on the monitor and baby was very sleepy, midwife wasn't happy with CtG.
Since having examination I have felt very little movement. I have a scan on Weds but worried thats too far to leave it. I am absolutely paranoid that my placenta is bleeding into a hematoma and that that is causing some issue for the baby.
Is it all just in my head?
I feel like I am a pain when I go into hospital like they are annoyed even though I know they aren't.

I would not wait, I would call and go in now. They won't think you're being a pain, and it's so much better to be safe than sorry.

Feel like they are going to just think I am crazy. As soon as I posted this I have fwlt some movements. Thank you.

Please go to hospital. Go now and insist that you're scanned. So much better to be safe than sorry. They really won't mind x

Given your history, I would 100% go in.

The advice is, of you're still not happy, even as soon as you've arrived home, call.

It's ok to keep calling untill you're reasurred. It's ok to go in and everything be absolutely fine with baby. So do get in touch and don't feel bad about it.

Thanks all, phoned up and they agreed that I should go in. No babysitter though so going alone and leaving husband at home. I am absolutely shattered as well 😴.
