is natural birth with a bicornuate uterus possible?

[shan18]

im currently 9 weeks pregnant and found out i have a bicornuate uterus after my first pregnancy. she was breech and had a c- section. I was very disappointed as i wanted a natural birth, i would love to have a natural birth with this baby but doctors have told my that i would have to have c section. is it possible to have natural birth?

I have heard that you can give birth vaginally as long as all continues well in your pregnancy. Your doctor may be suggesting another c-section since you had one with your first (a lot of doctors will usually recommend this option) But there are plenty of women who have a c-section and then go on to have a vaginal delivery. I would speak to your doctor about your options or get a second opinion if you can.
Hopefully someone else on here will have better advice for you, or maybe has experienced the same thing. I have a friend who had a bicornuate uterus, suffered 3 miscarriages, then had surgery and now has 2 little girls whom she delivered vaginally. I'd say it's always possible, but speak with your doctor about it. Hope things work out for you and you get your chance to deliver vaginally.
