My vertical incision split before it fully healed. My husband had to pack the wound twice a day until it healed...about 6 weeks PP. Then I had it cut open again 15 weeks PP during a separate surgery. It actually looks fine now... almost a year later. It is just a thinish purple line.

Robin- she had a hysterectomy also thats why it was the vertical incision. Her first two were bikini line c-sections.

Placenta accreta is usually accompanied by placenta previa. It is when your placenta deeply attaches to the uterus so much so that it causes haemorrhaging when the placenta detaches from the uterus. The placenta can grow all the way through the uterus and into other organs, in my case the doctors believe it has grown into my bladder. If you have placenta accreta and doctors know it you are guaranteed a c-section. My doctors believe the safest way to prevent uncontrollable haemorrhaging is to do a hysterectomy.

what is placenta accreta? I have an anterior placenta. Is it similar?

Thats interesting, I had my first section 13.5 years ago and it was bikini line and not vertical (())

My MIL had a verticle incision. She healed pretty quickly but does have quite the scar. This was 14 years ago though.. I`m sure the methods that they do them these days are totally different!

  1. ok ladies, my pictures are all gone from my profile but my blogs and polls are still there,.. i have been waiting to see if it was just a glitch and they would come back but they havent.. do i need to make a new profile to fix it?
  2. When did do you pack your hospital bag?
  3. Regarding Porn on Polls
  4. Went to see Man On A Ledge on Tues.......BRILLIANT!!
  5. My friend has just started taking fertility tablets which the DR said could increase her chances of having twins by 10%. Did this work for any of you and did you have twins?
  6. OMG, I posted on FB (in reponse to a suggestion made to me on From Our House To Yours) that I didn`t like a business because the items were very expensive and my friend got a bad deal there and the owner is threatening to sue me! Have you ever heard of such a thing? I actually paid a consultation fee and my lawyer told me that she was `absurd with possible mental health problems.` I am protected by the fisrt ammendment to express my honest opinions freely where I choose, but he said she can take it to court(because people can TRY to sue over anything) anyway and that it might cost me legal bills. We will both be out a lot of money because she couldn`t possibly win. Can you believe that? FML! First my records and now this! I hope my baby isn`t a bad luck baby. I see people not recommending or recommending businesses all the time on FB!
  7. Is SaraKelly still on here? I know she was a mod but I didn`t see her post in the previous Who Is A Mod poll...
  8. ANGRY!!!! My jenakers account is missing my ENTIRE journal from my high risk pregnancy and my letthisonestick account for my 7 month old is completely gone along with my journal. I AM SICK OVER IT!
  9. I`ve re-thought the moderating of the member-postings. How does this sound? Let`s change it to usage, rather than length of time as a member. Say your first 10 or 20 polls, questions and pictures need to be approved by a Mod or something like that. Someone posting the racist polls and adding the kiddie porn is unlikely to participate as a normal member. Once you are verified as a regular member you`re no longer monitored.
  10. How long did it take you to get pregnant after you got your IUD (Mirena) out?
