If what you’re describing is a double uterus—what doctors call a uterus duplex—then that’s what you’re dealing with. I honestly don't know how to put my own experience into words, but here is what happened for me: First pregnancy: I was 29 weeks along when we lost the baby due to heart failure. The baby was positioned on the right side. Second pregnancy: At 35 weeks and 3 days, I gave birth to a healthy girl weighing about 6 pounds and measuring 18 inches. This time, the baby was positioned on the left. In both cases, I had to stay on strict bed rest and remain under constant medical supervision...
Hannah Cook4 said:I have two uteri, a duplex uterus, but they’re joined like a single horn... the larger one is healthy and functioning, but the smaller one is underdeveloped and stunted😳. I'm 22 and planning to get pregnant, but I'm terrified because my doctor said it's going to be really difficult... ugh... what are your uterine conditions exactly??? please help meee
Hannah, my uterus is just like yours. That doesn't mean things will go badly; there are women who have perfectly normal births with this condition, though there are also those who struggle, like I did. You sound just like me when I first found out I was pregnant—I think I was more scared than I was happy at that moment. Just stay brave and listen to whatever your doctor tells you; stick to their advice like glue. If you don't mind me asking, what part of the US are you in?
I'm still waiting on the pathology report to get the full picture, but I suspect it might be related to my maternal condition. There just wasn't enough room for the baby to develop properly. On the ultrasound, they also spotted some shadowing near the heart, so I'm still waiting to find out if there's an actual heart defect. I was 29 weeks pregnant.
Listen, my pregnancy didn't work out, even with two doctors and one clinic. On April 30, 2010, my baby's heart just stopped beating, and I ended up delivering a stillborn daughter.
Our wedding cake had three tiers covered in a buttercream similar to what you'd find at a local bakery, though we went with a more budget-friendly option. We ordered it from a small shop nearby, and each tier cost about $67. I was really intentional about keeping the dessert costs down; I didn't want to overspend on sweets because, honestly, it feels like throwing money away. It paid off, too—we ended up giving away an entire large tier of cake plus 12kg of assorted pastries. We had guests in total.
I was on Yasmin three years ago, and I was smoking at the same time, and honestly, I didn't feel a thing. Maybe I'll start seeing the consequences of that now. Now I'm sitting here wondering what people actually mean when they say, "I smoke cigarettes and a few other things." You should just tell your gynecologist that you smoke, plus whatever else you're doing, and see what they have to say about it. Personally, I don't understand why anyone would start again after going six years without pills, especially after learning through experience that my body doesn't even take them well. Do I really want to go through the agony of hunting for a medication that my system won't even accept? I'm honestly at a loss for words.div>
Jacob White37 said:It is one $33. Their website states it clearly. We have reached several conclusions 😁 regarding the fact that the cake will be sourced from a bakery, and we intend to give the local shop in Majetić one final chance since the mothers were unimpressed; if they fail to deliver, we will either pivot to Sugar Land or perhaps hire two women from the neighborhood who bake at home, depending entirely on the cost.
I've been reading this thread for a while now and I'm genuinely confused. Why am I expected to bring desserts with formal documentation instead of just making them at home? Why would a restaurant demand pastries that come from a registered business rather than just being homemade? 😕😕😕😕😕

I'm honestly not sure what a fair price is since I paid $0.83 for my soy treats, and that included having them delivered to the hall already packed in those little boxes. Wouldn't the bakery where you ordered the cookies just have some boxes on hand?
My doctor diagnosed me just through a standard exam, then later confirmed everything with a vaginal ultrasound. I know from experience that if you have a vaginal septum like I did, having intercourse can be impossible. My advice is to head back to the doctor and ask specifically for a vaginal ultrasound. What was the process like for you when you had yours?
They told me my chances of survival were slim because this isn't just a typical pregnancy. I've had two hymenectomies in the past, and they operated so I could have a relatively normal sex life, but when it comes to my uterus, no one is willing to touch it. There’s a septum dividing it right down the middle.
I went to see a gynecologist, but it turns out he didn't have much experience with this specific situation. I really want to hear from another woman—someone who has actually dealt with this and gone through the process of giving birth to a child with these needs. I’ve gathered about ten different opinions already, but everyone seems to be saying something completely different from the next person.
I need some help and a bit of perspective from you all. Should I move forward with certain treatments or not? Please weigh in—I really hope I’m not the only one dealing with this.

The original thread title "I have 2 uteri and 1 ovary" has been renamed to "Uterus duplex (double uterus)".
I’m thinking the same thing—if I have anything left over, I’ll definitely share it. When I look at how much I’m already shelling out for everything else, the cost of the cake is just $60. It feels like a drop in the bucket compared to the total budget. My main worry is actually the dessert spread on the tables; I'm stressing over the weight of the pastries and making sure we don't run short. I actually ended up switching pastry chefs because it's pretty rare to find someone who will give you a pound of sweets for $20, but honestly, the quality is great.
The cake is a total disaster. It’s not quite as massive as yours, but it isn't exactly miles away from your proportions either—it's just a mess. I'm honestly worried it won't be enough to feed everyone.
