new & ? about bicornuate uterus

Hi Ladies,

 I'm pregnant with twins and we are so excited but worried.  They found out during our first few ultrasounds that I have a bicornuate uterus and that puts me at high risk.  The u/s tech really scared me about PTL and the babies running out of room early.  The one good thing is that both babies are in their own "horn" so they aren't right next to each other.   I had an appt for a high level u/s last week to check things out (so far everything is ok) and I go to the MFM in January.  Anyone have this with twins?  Any thoughts? Thanks!

  • thanks!  Changed the title so maybe that will help.  I think I'm just in a small percentage with this though...

  • I have a slight bicornuate uterus and I carried my twins until 33w 4d.  I was worried too that I wouldnt be able to carry them but I did make it that far.  Make sure your docs keep an eye on you as high risk.  Good luck and congrats on your pregnancy.

    And stay off google.  It will only scare you and make you more worried.

  • Ditto pp.  Do NOT google!  I did after I found out I had a bicornuate uterus after my first u/s, and it scared the bejeezus out of me.  I was certain terrible things were going to happen, but nothin'!  In fact when I delivered at  36w3d (due to developing pre-eclampsia), they were both head-down & cozy in there.

    I wouldn't stress until your doc tells you that you have something to stress about, but I know that's easier said than done.  :)

    Congratulations!

  • I have a bicornuate uterus too. i worried about pre-erm labor wth my son and he also had SUA, He wound up being a day late. The doctors do not seem worried this time around because he did fine. My advice...do not worry...it only makes for a bad experience. And absolutely dont google...if you are worried express your concerns to your doctor...
