Pregnancy After Hysterectomy?! Posted: 07-28-06 09:11am
Hi! Ive been lurking for awhile so I
thought I would post something. I am 34
yrs old and have 3 kids. I had a
hysterectomy when I was 25, almost 9 years
ago. (the doc took my uterus, cervix and
left ovary out) well, for the last 4-5 wks
I have been feeling fetal movement! Not
only that, but I have had nausea with
certain smells and when I eat and my
areola's have become darker. I have
taken 3 pregnancy tests and they all came
out negative. (i have a history of taking
5-6 ob tests and all of them came out
negative yet I was ob with my 3 kids) I
have done alot of research and have found
that there are some cases of women (on the
net) who have become pregnant after a
hysterectomy. I was amazed! What do
you all think? Could I be pregnant?
What else would cause the fetal movement
or my sx? Thanks!
Jeannine

Hey Posted: 08-11-06 20:21pm
Jeannine~ im just glad we have one another
to talk to we know wat we are feelin no
one else, just remember it could be alot
of things causing our symptoms. The new
england journal of medicine has proof of 3
women who carried abdominal babies and the
women and babies survived . Totally
freaky huh? With this world and the way
things are going and happening anything is
possible, so no one can say it is
impossible for it has happened. Just keep
an open mind and know there are many
things that we could be having. Ill keep
ya posted hun!!!God bless

hi! :) you're right!! I have read
numerous searches of women who had babies
after a hysterectomy..Mind you, a few of
them were already pregnant when they had
their surgery. It is very rare,
though!
Its been almost 2 months since I began to
feel the "fetal" movements and they are
getting stronger! My fiance, mike, is
telling me that my abdomine is getting
larger, but the rest of me is remaining
"normal"..Go figure. I dont know what to
think! Good luck to you, and keep me
posted!
