Re: Should I not be THIS scared????

[Guest guest]

Hi again - its normal to be nervous and scared. But you can be

reassured if you are BU. As I explained in my previous message, I am a

BU/SU combo and I have been advised not to have the surgery. My septum

is complete - my uterus is divided in two essentially. I had a high

risk pregnancy. I was monitored closely. But I had a healthy baby

girl, delivered vaginally, at 40 weeks plus 1 day - one day late!

Being BU (or SU for that matter) puts you at a higher risk for

pre-term labour, it doesn't mean you will have ptl. You can take

measures to prevent ptl if it becomes a real risk. You will be

monitored carefully, but despite the monitoring the odds are on your

side with a BU - most women with BUs have great successs stories.

Pregnancy outcomes for women with BUs are generally good or near normal!

Remember that there are probably thousands of women out there with BUs

and SUs who don't know it - and most of them have normal or near

normal pregnancies.

Hope this helps a bit - keep us posted on how the lap goes tomorrow.

Cheers,

a
