I know there aren’t many people in this group but for those who are searching I just wanted to share my journey of pregnancy with a bicornate uterus.

I had been trying to conceive since September 2021. I fitst got pregnant in March 2022, this ended around 7 weeks due to a blighted ovum and miscarriage. I got pregnant again in April 2023. Due to my anxiety and worries I went for a private scan at 6 weeks. A viable pregnancy was confirmed and they mentioned my bicornate uterus though I was already aware of this due to some scans a long time previous to this when I was younger.

I went to my first appointment at the hospital at 12 weeks and the pregnancy was progressing fine. They again spotted the bicornate uterus and I was brought in for extra scans between 18-26 weeks to easier the length of my cervix as this is something they need to monitor with a bicornate uterus as a short cervix can bring on early labour. I was very happy going in for the extra scans as it meant I got to see baby every 2 weeks!

Baby was in breech position for the last few weeks of the pregnancy and I ended up being booked in for a c-section at 39&3 weeks. I lost a lot of blood during the operation and had to get a blood transfusion the next day. They said this was due to having a lot of blood vessels in my uterus. I’m not sure if the bicornate uterus has anything to do with this.

My little girl is here and healthy. I’ve been told that there’s no reason why I can’t get pregnant again and have a vaginal birth in future.

All I can say is don’t worry as healthy pregnancy is totally possible with a bicornate uterus!
