Heart shaped uterus anyone?

Alright ladies. I need to know. Does anybody else here have a heart shaped uterus? And if yes, do you have literally any information about it? When my daughter was born about 4 and a half months ago via c section, I found out while wide open on the operating table that I have a heart shaped uterus but was given literally no information about it at all whatsoever. All I was told by the doctors was that it was the reason why my daughter wouldn’t stay head down and they also wouldn’t shut up about how cute it was. I haven’t heard of literally anyone else having this and I need to know I’m not alone in this

I also have one, they said it limited her room some. And with me being small I was induced a week early. Other than that they didn’t really tell me any thing but it’s nice to know there are others :)

Not heart shaped, but when I tried getting an IUD they couldn't insert it because I have a curved uterus. They didnt tell me much either, only that since my uterus is curved im more likely to get pregnant, and more likely to have twins. Literally told me nothing else. When I tried asking more about it they said its like a mole, that's just how my body was formed.

Even my doctor took me I have a curved uterus, but she didn’t tell this all through my pregnancy or delivery. I got to know only when I went to the same doc to readiness for my second pregnancy! She said it doesn’t matter, I’ll be just as fine as I was during my first.

Also heart shaped but asymmetrical so one side would have been too small to carry a full term foetus. Thankfully both my girls settled in the larger side but other than that I don’t think it means much

Uk c section how long is hospital stay?

For elective? Is it different for emergency or second sections? Thanks

Newborn outing

When did you first take your newborn out in public places? He’ll be 6 days old tomorrow, is it too soon? It’s just I have a 4 year old and it’s Easter holidays so I feel bad staying in x

Growth scans

Do you remember how much your baby was predicted to weigh at your last scan vs their actual weight?

With my first they said 3.3 kg at 38 w and baby was born 3.1 kg two weeks later. I am pregnant again and having growth scans just curious to see how often they get it wrong.

Is my waters slowly leaking 😭

Iv been leaking since 31weeks.. had a scan last week and her fluids were normal! But I have carried on leaking so started wearing pads. This was my pad this afternoon 🥺 second pregnancy but this didn’t happen with my first.

Dunno what to do. I am at the hospital tomorrow..

Has anyone gone into labour before their section date but still had a section?

Currently 34+4, baby is now 99th centile and is an estimated 7lb already, c section scheduled for 38+1. Lost my mucus plug over the weekend and just been at my midwife appointment and baby is sitting LOW and is engaged. Even the midwife said she didnt think id make it to 38 weeks. Whats everyones experience with going into labour and then having a section? Im so scared now that shes going to arrive in the next week 😭

Amniotic Fluid Index

Hi guys, I just had a 32 week scan to see if my placenta has moved as needed. She did measurements etc whilst I was there and my fluid is sitting above the usual charts. She said before I left that I’ve got more fluid but not a concerning amount more, she just said when my waters go they will go 😂 but I hadn’t seen the chart at the point. She wasn’t concerned at all but wondering whether anyone else has had this?
