Let's Talk About Having a Bicornuate Uterus - Blog Entry

06 Nov 2008 12:18 PM

Hello everyone!...I'm 25 and as well have a bicornuate utterus..By the grace of God, I've successfully carried two beautiful babies. My first who is now 6 yrs old..came at 32 weeks..(5lbs) ..and my second, who is now 11 months..came at 35 weeks..(6lbs 8oz). I went into preterm labor at about 26 weeks with both. With my second I contracted almost non-stop ..every few minutes until I was 35 weeks, which was very miserable but luckily my cervix was very strong and didn't start opening until about 31 weeks. As big of a downfall as it is to having a bicornuate uterus..the one positive upside to it is that the baby has a lot less room to move around in which makes it a lot harder..therefore makes them stronger, so they are more likely to come out typically in better health than your average premature baby. Having these issues is definitely an experience, but with a little faith and some good rest..believe it or not..it is possible to pull it off!..Good luck to you all! May you get the little bundles of joy you've been working so hard for. :)
