Uterine Anomaly Thread (bicornuate, unicornuate, septate, didelphys)

[MoBaby]

No I can't do that unfortunately. I work in Healthcare and since I'm a provider it's essential I be at work. If my dr writes me out it's another story. I've been having these since 12 weeks! So super early. I'm trying to be on my feet at least as possible but working in a hospital it's nearly impossible. I'm sure I'll make it to vday no problem. Dr not too overly concerned just yet so hopefully all is fine.

Good! Your doctor knows best exactly what s going on! And to have such great cl means the bh are not really doing anything, just teaching your uterus what it will need to do in about 17 or so weeks!!!!

 

[MoBaby]

I only have a little over 14 wks! Delivering at 37 wks.. Not long!

 

[tiffuhknee]

Mobaby: Don't worry is baby is measuring well and your CL is good just take it easy. I had and still have lots of BH that started very early on like you, and I am currently approaching 36 weeks. I am sure all will be well just keep us updated.

Chistiana: Yes I am being nothing but positive now thathe worry of an early birth has passed because if he were to be born now he would have little to no complications. I have luckilyhad a very easy pregnancy despite my septum so I feel so blessed that I know however he gets here is exactly how it is ment to be .

TIFF- you've made it so far that's amazing, soon you'll have your little one bundled up in your arms!

I know my pregnancy was so stressful but I'm so excited to start trying again next summer to give Brooklyn a brother or sister! Miss feeling the kicks and seeing my tummy move around!

Anyone doing anything special for the holidays? I'm planning a trip with the hubby to go down south ( Dominican Republic) for a week in February right before I go back to work .

Snl -she's beAutiful!!!! So cutein that pic

Well I had my appointment today with my specalist and to no surprise my bubs is still breech, I am 36 weeks and 3 days so he is not expecting him to turn and the US tech even said wow baby is just about out of room. Well they want to schedual the section for 39 weeks such would be the 27th of this month but my doctor won't be back in town till the 3rd of Jan. Now I am freaking out about when I will have the section got excited to only have about two weeks left to find out that now I have to wait almost four more weeks. And I would rather have a schedualed csection than an emergency one because I went into labor.

 

[chistiana]

J we seems to forget very easily!! I definitely want another baby very soon, hubby keeps saying "but you had such a difficult pg" but i d do it again in no second!! Ow and i m so jealous of your holidays!!! We re not doing anything special, maybe just going up in the mountains to see some snow and let the kids go wild!!!

Tiff- wow 39 weeks!!! You re alsmost there hun, dont get stressed, i m sure your doc has a back up plan if you go in labor sooner than what he schedules??

 

[tiffuhknee]

I just don't want to go into labor at all not with my son being breech and knowing the complications and how dangerous it can be. I know lots of women deliver breech babies just fine but even if only 3 out of 100 die I don't want that to be my son. I know I sound like a worry wart but I want him out at 39 weeks not to wait till 40 because my doctor is going to be out of town. If he was medically advising me to go to 40 then fine but my specalist said to get him out by 39 weeks so I am worried about my sons safety at this point :/.

 

[chistiana]

I m so sorry hun, does your doc have someone he works with that can deliver you at 39 weeks? Talk to him, it s your right, this is the most important moment of your life up till now, you should feel safe and comfortable with it.

 

[sbl]

Tiff- I went into labour with lo and she was breech infact I was at 8cm before I got to the hospital and everything was fine so try not to worry.
I definitely think you should be delivered at 38/39 weeks though as my Dr. just told me women with a uterine anomaly should not be allowed to go to full term and after 36 weeks should be monitored regularly to make sure everything is ok with baby.

 

[MoBaby]

TIFF id be concerned as well. Can a partner not do the section earlier? Seems risky waiting that long.

 

[tiffuhknee]

I guess not I mean I am just so irritated and he seems to not care at all they are already sending the paperwork over to get the time for the section. Should I call and ask him if he has a partner that can do it?

 

[MoBaby]

I would call

I had an OB appt today. All was okay not great. I am funneling some (1.1cm) but I have plenty of cervix below (total cervix length 3.4-3.7 cm with 2.3 at least below the funneling) the funneling so no need to intervene right now. But I get to go in weekly now to check on things. The tightening has continued. As of now I can work normal hours but if any changes then I am out of work. I am worried sick now and hoping this baby stays put for many many more weeks (at least 10 more )

 

[tiffuhknee]

I called and apparently my doctor can not schedual the appointment with the on call docotr for when he is gone. He is only there if anyone goes into labor while he is away.

I hope your baby stays put hun. Good to know the tightnings have gone away. Just take it easy when you can.

 

[chistiana]

Mobaby- your cl is still very good hun, i really wouldnt worry, especially as you ll be so closely monitored.

Tiff- i really dont think they re taking you seriously... I m not saying you are at risk but you should be closely monitored after 37 weeks...demand to at least see someone every week while your doc is away

 

[tiffuhknee]

My specalist is no longer seeing me my last appointment with him was on Monday. I am so over my doctor because he just does not care. And now I am going to vent for one min because I really have no one to talk to. I do not live with my baby's father he lives two hours away and lately he has been doing anything and everything to put me down. Today he basically called me easy and making it seem like I sleep around and I don't. He has no consideration for the anxiety he is causing me right now. Then he said he was no longer talking to me and that he was done, and when I did not fight for it because I wanted the situation to calm down he showed no intrest in even being aware that his son was being born (not today I asked him if he wanted me to inform him if I went into labor) he brushed it off and said why should he fight to know if I didn't fight when he said he was done. I don't think it is fare for my son or myself and idk what to do anymore. It is just too much. This pregnancy has been so stressful and this last month has made me feel like such a failure.

 

[chistiana]

Oowww babe please please please dont feel like this. You are definitely not a failure, you have done so well with all this stress and bullshit, you and your son dont deserve any of this. I dont know how you feel about the fob but you should not have to put up with any of this. You are about to have your and his bany and if he feels it s fair to say all these things then the hell with him. If he doesnt want to be there when you deliver it s his bad, he ll miss out. It may be that he is getting too anxious about the baby coming but tell him to vent to someone else, not you. Just know that you can do it whatever way you choose to..whether it s with the fob or on your own, you can do it cause you re strong and you re a mom. And go shout at that stupid doctor of your...demand what is best for you and your son. I really wish i was there to give you a big hug.

 

[tiffuhknee]

Last night he texted me and told me I was a lying piece of shit who had no morals values or self worth and that he hopes someone is around to teach my son those things so he doesn't end up like me. I mean I just do not know what I did to desurve such harsh treatment. I called the doctor multiple times and all he keeps saying is I can't schedual a surgery with the on call doctor. I am like great enjoy your vacation jerk. I know they need a break but I think my son desurves to have the treatment he desurves as well. What gets me is my specalist said he needs to schedual it for 39 weeks and he goes off and makes it on my actual due date. I am so over it.

 

[chistiana]

OMG what an ass.. And that goes for both! Ok seriously i know this is very difficult to decide right now but do not let anyone treat you like this. The fob is a complete ass and if he cant respect the woman he has a baby with then he does not deserve to be a dad. He either needs to aknowledge how mean and unfait he s been and apologize or you should just get away from him and do what you have to do on your own. Do you have other family support? Things might be difficult but it doesnt seem as if he ll contribute in any good ways anyway. As for your doc i really dont know what to say... Can you maybe see your specialist privately for a reassurance scan during that one last week?

 

[tiffuhknee]

Nope he says all is fine with his growth and there has been no complications thus far so there is no need to come back. I just wish someone would listen stupid doctors, I know they are well educated and go to school for years but that doesn't mean they are always right. As for fob I just wish he would understand what he is doing. I have been crying all night and all day. I just can't take this stress right now. I have my mom but she is over 1500 miles away. I just want to have this baby because I know when I look at him it will all be worth it.
