Prolapse & pregnancy - scared...

10 replies

Problemdownbelow · 20/09/2006 09:21

Does anyone have any positive tales of prolapse & pregnancy or even of fixing prolapse with pelvic floor exercises only??

I'm pregnant with my second and the prolapse has only become apparent now.
I have an appt with my GP tomorrow and also with the obstetrician (about something else)

What should I expect in terms of referral/treatment? I don't want to get fobbed off and end up with my uterus falling out at 30 weeks

DH has offered to go with me to either or both appts but he will have to skive work - should I take him or not??

had a prolaspe dx before concieving dd3. uterus didnt fall out.

pelvic floor exercises have made it bearable, but its still not right.

Misdee - did it affect your treatment during pg or your delivery? are you okay to have more kids (if you want to)?

So did you see a physio or a gynae? Or did your GP treat you? (sorry for all the qu's)

Haven't seen the doc yet - seeing her tomorrow
Don't have much faith in her hence consulting the mumsnet oracle as usual
