bicornuate uterus pregnancy roller coaster
Posted by mikeslani on 16:44 4/4/2006:
I have a bicornuate uterus. In 2002 I had a m/c. I was very young and going to planned parenthood. The doctor there was very bleek and told me basically not to bother with children because there was an 80% chance that all of my pregnancies would end in m/c. However in 2003 I gave birth to my daughter. I had preterm labor with my daughter but was told it had nothing to do with my bicornuate uterus.
In March of this year I took a home pregnancy test and got a possitive reading. That is when my new roller coaster began. My first doctor's apt. was when my LMP sugested I was in my 8th week. When they did an u/s they found a gestational sack with nothing in it. I was devistated and the doctor pretty much told me there was no hope. However the next week I scheduled myself with a different doctor. He was really great and found the baby in the sack and dated me as 6 weeks 4 days pregnant. He even found a heart beat. I was so happy. I've made it clear to each doctor I am concerned about my bicornuate uterus but up untill that point they just ignore it.
This week I've started bleeding in the morning really red then it tapers off to brown in the evening. I went to the doctor yesturday to get checked and my new doctor wasn't available so I had to see doctor number 3 *ugh* She seemed very concerned with my bicornuate uterus claming I have a higher risk of m/c and abnormal bleeding. The baby looked fine (and bigger) on u/s I even saw the heart beat very clearly. She really had no explination for the bleeding just told me to stay off me feet and get lots of rest. I don't even know what is going on or if my bicornuate uterus is going to cause a complication this time around.
I am so affraid of being excited about being pregnant. I am terrified of telling my family, and I am just on an emotional roller coaster. Add on that there is virtually little to no info anywhere about bicornuate uterus I feel very frustrated. My husband keeps saying if we have a m/c it is ok we'll keep trying. I feel like if I m/c I need to stop. How many m/c can I take? Is it irrisponsible of me to continue trying if I know I might have a m/c?? I just wish there was a way for me to feel better about this. Has anyone else had abnormal bleeding with a bicornuate uterus?
