I have just been diagnosed with SCH how long does the bleeding last? Any advice?

Hi. I'm 7 weeks 5 days and just went to the ER yesterday with pretty heave bright red bleeding and clots. I have researched it a lot with mostly postivite outcomes so it's nice to hear I'm not the only one out there with this. My HCg levels were 5115 and I heard teh heartbeat for the first time it was 134 BPM. They diagnosed me with SCH at the top of my uterus instead of the bottom and they told me I'm now a high risk pregnancy which sounds scary! I have been bleeding now for 3 days pretty heavily. I'm trying to be postive but it's so scary when you are always seeing blood. I have been put on bed rest until I can go see my OBGYN Tuesday. Any advice? Is anyone experiencing this? I know most people have said they have a gush just a day or a few hours but this is constant for 3 days now with some cramping. Please any comments or anyone going through this same thing?

I bled off and on... Sometimes a lot sometimes a little... Sometimes red, sometimes brownish from 5.5 weeks until 13 weeks... I tried to just take it easy... Stay off my feet as much as possible, not do any heavy lifting. I had a very good pregnancy, and had a healthy little girl at 36 weeks... I think had a very good uncomplicated pregnancy ...and am now pregnant with my fourth....
