Anyone with a bicornuate uterus (heart shaped uterus)? :(

Hi lovelies! Just wanted to say I have a bicornuate with slight septum I had two early m/c and ttc for 13 cycles before my bfp.
I conceived naturally and carried to 40+5 which the midwives were amazed about. She was breech until 37 weeks when she turned on her own which was great news for me. She stayed back to back which made the start of labour pretty painful but after two days of back labour she finally popped her way out with just gas and air.
Here are the things I learned while desperately ttc: because my uterus is also retroverted I had to lie on my front for optimal cervical position. Temping is great to see exactly when you are ovulating. You have an increased risk of retained placenta so have a hospital birth just to be on the safe side! And finally- I had a lovely, happy pregnancy with no problems at all, baby was a good healthy size and I was carrying on as normal right up to the end. I hope you guys all get your bfp's soon! We're just starting on number 2 so I will be back on here a bit more now! If I can be of any support to you guys please feel free to message xxxxxx

I just found out yesterday that I have this as well, a bicornuate uterus. Feeling pretty crushed, haven't discussed outcomes with my MD yet. Good luck.

Hey Hun, just wanted to let you know it's not the end of the road for you! In fact many people carry on just fine! Please don't panic until you've had a consultation and although we had some ups and downs I got my beautiful girl within 18 months of ttc x
