I copies this from the conception thread.
I wasn’t sure where to post this. I have to make a decision on whether to have my uterine septum resected. I found out that I had one when just pregnant with ds. I had no problems during the pregnancy, except that ds was in a rather odd position, and was born by elective caesarean. I was extremely stressed about the potential risks during the pregnancy though, and am dreading to go through this again. I have seen a consultant who has told me that he would not advise me to have it resected (based on my history – no m/c, no preterm labour, etc.), but that if I wanted to he would do it (I think he realised that I have real problems with the idea of being pregnant with the septum again, although ds is 2 now and I really want another baby). I find it very difficult to decide what to do: I worry about creating problems by having the operation (after all, I did have a successful pregnancy with my womb the way it is), but I also worry that I was just lucky last time, and am in for a lot of heartbreak if I don’t have it sorted out. Has anyone been in this position? What did you do?
