bicornuate womb with subchorionic bleed

Hello,
I don't know if anyone can shed me some light on how I'm feeling right now.
I'm 7weeks 3 days pregnant. Pregnancy has been fine up until now. I attended a&e due to a big bleed including blood clots. When I was there they sent me to EPU (early pregnancy unit) I had a internal ultrasound and baby was fine and heart beat was amazing! Become really overwhelmed as I thought I was having a miscarriage.

The midwife got two other people in the room and I was informed that I have a heart shaped uterus...they said that the bleed was due to the left side of my uterus shredding and due to having this it has caused a chorionic bleed. They said they can't tell me how the pregnancy will be or the outcome as they can't with any pregnancy... I've been told to take it easy, no heavy lifting bed rest etc for several weeks and to expect bleeding throughout pregnancy. The bleed will be measured each scan that I have and I assume I'll be high risk due to the shape of my uterus?

I'm just wondering if anyone has had a similar experience and what the outcome had been? I am a first time mum and I'm going besides myself!

Thanks x

I have a bicornuate uterus, wasn't discovered until my 2nd pregnancy.

1st baby was born at 33 weeks, weighing 2lb 13ozs.
2nd baby was born at 27 weeks, weighing 1lb 6ozs.

They're now 16 & 13 and perfectly healthy.

I didn't go into early labour, they were both delivered by emergency c-section, due to reduced movements.
