Not truly split - it was malformed so one
side grew normal and the other - well,
didn't so I had a normal half uterus and
an extra malformed bit with a teeny tiny
tract from the main uterus to the little
bit.

Was there ever any hope that .Oliver could
have made it to term? What I mean is,
did he pass away because of where he was
situated or was it for some other reason?

The top of the uterus he was in started to
tear.
The u/s tech saw a lot of fluid in my
abdomen and so I was sent for a
laparoscopy (keyhole investigation) but
instead they did a laparotomy (slice you
open) and ruptured it further and so the
they decided with out my consent or
steve's to take him - he was still alive
with a good strong heartbeat, and then
decided they couldn't repair my uterus
after they ripped it open to take the baby
out and so removed it - completely failing
to notice the main uterus at all.
If they had done things properly, there is
a high chance, that with bed rest, I might
have made it to 24 weeks or more seeing as
I already had the rupture 4 weeks, but
they chose to ignore my comments and
recurrent hospital trips as "women get
pains during pregnancy".
And now, the hospital wonder why I am
p*ssed at them
rupture however is unavoidable when
pregnancy occurs in a rudimentary horn,
point is they didn't even try.

When I came out of intensive care I did
get to hold him for a few minutes. I
also have a few pictures of him plus
prints from his feet.
***edit to add***
if anyone wants to see his pics you can
ask but otherwise I won't show because
they can be quite upsetting if you aren't
expecting what you see.
Albeit he is a perfectly formed little
boy.

yes, if you look what I posted in the
pics, you can see (as explained) they only
removed the rudimentary horn - they failed
to notice the main uterus, to which the
cervix is connected.

If it makes you feel better, i've been
told that I would never be able to have a
baby (carry to term). Ha! So it's
possible!!!
