So my husband and I WANT to have a baby, but we're not quite sure that'll ever happen...Between my bicornuate uterus (talkin BIG division here, beyond heart shaped, almost completely divided in half), stupid old endometriosis (already had 3 laparoscopies, last one was 2005) multiple miscarriages and 2 babies that lived less than 24 & 28 hrs and a few cancer scares I'm beginning to believe that the "possibilities" are shot and all the random pregnancy symptoms I keep getting every 6-8 months are nothing more than cruel head games.....Fortunately we still have 2 boys (technically my steps) but their psychotic (no joke, BIPOLAR, DEPRESSED & WON'T TAKE HER MEDS) incubator of a mother keeps threatening to take them back......
Any advise? Words of actual encouragement that could lead to success or just the good old "everything that happens is for a greater reason...."crap line people give when they don't really know what to say????
Re: Bicornuate Uterus, Endo, & Multiple MC's & Cancer Scares!!!! WTF?!?!
I am sorry I don't have a happy story to share just yet. I started the whole TTC process after finding out I had cervical cancer. ?I had two surgeries and was told to have children asap. ?We have been trying for two years... ?3 miscarriages and a surgery for septate uterus. ?I am prego again. ?My phylosophy(sp?) is to stay positive and if you want to have children you will be able to one way or another (adoption as a possability). ?I honestly hate hearing the "whatevers meant to happen will happen", or "good things come to those who wait" bs! ?BUT I am going to pray for you and try to keep your chin up. ??
I'm so sorry for what you're going through. I have stage IV endo diagnosed at age 14 (3 laps) and I got pregnant!! The doctors told me since I was 14 that I wouldn't be able to, but I did! There's hope
Plus, I have several autoimmune diseases.
Also, I know many women on here who had surgery for their septate uterus and got pregnant. Make sure you get a good OB/RE and they should be able to help you out.
Are you interested in adoption? I know it's different than being pregnant and giving birth to a child, but you'll love and enjoy your children just as much!
Best wishes to you! Remember there is always hope and anything's possible! Stay on this board long enough and you'll see miracles happen every day
