Answer
Dear Karri

Although an increasing size of the hematoma is not a good sign, it does not mean you are going to lose your baby. In fact it means you need more rest (bed rest) with avoidance of household activities, sex, sports and similar activiteis. Most of these hematomashematomas resolve within a week or two if these instructions are followed.

Good Luck
