Hey LMS,

How was your labour and birth with DD? I can't recall..

My bestie has one. It wasn't discovered until her 12wk scan. She was told that it can cause difficulty conceiving (though it didn't for her and doesn't appear to have for you either), as the egg can ave trouble implanting up the top of the uterus, near the "horns".

Other possible complications she was warned about were placenta praevia (sp?) for the same reason - lower the egg implants, lower the placenta. Also breech baby and pre-term labour - as if baby is breech for a long time, as can happen with a bicornuate uterus, it can put undue pressure on the cervix, causing it to dilate prematurely.

So yes that can lead to c/s. Though my friend was allowed to go into spontaneous labour and then they monitored her for a while but it became apparent bubs was not moving so she had a c/s.

Logically, from what I've written above, spotting might be normal - if the placenta is lower, might lead to more spotting? But that's me guesstimating, not based on any sort of knowledge!

As for whether it can develop, hmm who knows? The uterus certainly changes shape with pregnancy, but that is stretching and growing, is it really changing shape?? Hopefully a medical person will be able to comment on that... But I suspect you might have had it with DD too...

LMS, I would think that if your labour and delivery of DD were all good then you might not have anything to worry about so much this time
