Follow-up checkup after curettage

Had my final follow-up after the curettage in March. Has it been 3 months already?! I hardly remembered it, though the few weeks after it was rather depressing.

My obstetrician said to go back for a checkup after the 2nd period because it took me a long time to clean everything out. So, off I went today, to have a chat with her.

My OB had sent the sacs for reports. Probably part of their routine. We were having fraternal twins. The female one was the first to go and the male one developed well, but didn't make it eventually.

So, from what my OB said, there's a chance of twin pregnancy in my future attempts. Natural birth is possible if they're both head down. But because of my first c-section, she would prefer another c-section if the next pregnancy is a set of twins. The record at Sunnybank Private Hospital was 7 c-sections on one woman. My doctor's record was 5 on a 28 y.o. lady.

I'm going to be praying real hard (not that I haven't been) to have a natural birth. Be it twins or just one. Especially if it's twins. It's bad enough having to cope with pain and sleeplessness with a c-section, I don't need a double dose of it.

At the last Brisbane MOPS training, one of the ladies from another group shared that she had twins and didn't step out of the house till 8 months later!

Babies are something to look forward to, and no matter what happens, we'll be trusting the Lord to bring us through.

So, in case you haven't figured it out, yes, we'll be trying for our next bundle of joy(s). =) Sphere: Related Content
