PG after SU resection (m/c, pg ment.)

June 6, 2005

Hey ladies. I know it's been a while since I've written, but I've

been reading and trying to stay caught up. I saw a couple of recent

e-mails re: SU resection and whether or not it's worth it, and

thought I would give an update on my situation. I had a m/c at 13-14

weeks in April 2004 due to a SU. I had a lap/hyst in November 2004

to remove the septum. I was told resection was successful. I did

not have a follow up HSG. I got pregnant pretty much right away (LMP

12-25-04). I started out having some spotting that lasted on and off

from 6-12 weeks. Pretty scary as that was how my first pregnancy had

started out as well. I had two ultrasounds in those first 12 weeks,

and everything looked good (one at the peri). I went in for my level

2 ultrasound at 18 weeks with the peri and everything still looked

good, but they set me up for one more ultrasound to check my cervix.

At my 20 week ultrasound, they cleared me and said I don't have to go

back to the peri. So I am 23w2d and everything seems to be going

well with my little boy. I feel pretty good that everything is going

to turn out okay this time. I really feel that this pregnancy has

been successful because of my resection. I really do feel it is

worth going thru the surgery. I don't think I could have forgiven

myself if I hadn't had the surgery and I had gone on to have another

m/c. I know everyone is different though, and some women have had

successful pregnancies without being resected. Anyway, just my

rambles. Hope everyone is doing well.

Hi ,

Thank you for sharing your story. It is so nice to be able to hear

other people's stories and to know that I am not alone. I had an MRI

tonight and I guess my Dr. will make his recommendation on SU resection

within the next few days. I think I am leaning towards surgery for the

same reason as you...if something goes wrong with a future pregnancy, I

will always blame myself....
