ADVICE for women with Bicornuate uterus or septumFrom: Angela (anonymous@obgyn.net)Sat, 3 Feb 2001 11:35:48 -0600 (CST)
I want a woman to read this and learn from my past loss. I was thought to have a septum, but turns out to be bicornuate. I had a healthy first pregnancy. The placenta was not attached to the middle septum muscle. The second pregnancy I lost my baby boy when I was 34 weeks pregnant. His placenta was partly attached to this septum muscle that doesn't carry adequate blood supply. Losing the baby was unexpected. I thought at the worst I would go into preterm labor. My advice is THIS!! Search for an OB that will monitor you closely your ENTIRE pregnancy. Check the babies movements daily and possibly purchase a home fetal heartbeat monitor. Also, have stress tests done and frequent ultrasounds to watch for intrauterine growth retardation and low amniotic fluid. Check around for a perinatologist to monitor you ALONG with your obstetrician. Take my advice and do everything available, you are at a higher risk for several problems. I lost my baby and my obstetrician didn't do proper monitoring and I am discovering that it possibly could have been different. If you have any other questions, I obviously am not a Doctor, but have become more knowledgeable on how to have a safer pregnancy possibly. Gucci90@cs.com
