new here-BU @ 31 weeks

[Guest guest]

Hi there! I was lucky enough to have my BU diagnosed well before I

even tried to get pregnant. 10 years ago when they first discovered

it, they really discouraged me from trying to have children at all.

I am now 34YO and have been seeing a wonderful specialist. He put

me on modified bedrest from the beginning of the pg, which has

worked really well so far... I have had few complications, and am at

31 weeks now. It has been very scary though, and we have had a ton

of ultrasounds. I know that we have a very high risk of pre-term

labor, and was curious to know what other people with BU have

experienced. My uterus in on the extreme end of this anomaly... the

dip in the middle of my uterus extends all of the way down the

middle and actually protrudes into my cervix (almost like having two

1/2 size uterus'). The baby (a boy :-) is in the right horn. I am

actually getting to be quite lop-sided at this point in my pg. and

it is really noticeable when I am laying down flat. Any stories

about pre-term labor and what to expect would sure be appreciated.

It is really hard to relate to my pg. friends who don't face any

complications. Thanks!
