New Mommy Learning the Hard Way

Being a new mommy has taught me a lot. One thing is that I have a lot to learn. Second is that my friends and family have a lot of advice to give but don't always give the same advice. So I wanted to give you a place to go that will give you lots to think about and facts to back them up. Third is that there is a whole new world that I want to know about. Hope you like it.

Mommy with 2 wombs give emergency C-Section birth

When I was pregnant with my little girl, I couldn't imagine getting any bigger. Then when I had her, I couldn't imagine my "post-baby" body ever getting back to my "pre-baby" body. Then I read about Katherine Harrison and realized that I had no worries. Katherine was pregnant with baby Cai and had gone to have a prenatal check up. As soon as she got there, she had severe abdominal cramps and the drama began. Turns out, Katherine had 2 uteruses, each 1/2 the normal size. Little Cai decided he wanted to keep growing but the womb he was in wasn't big enough. So the womb ruptured and Katherine had to have an emergency C-Section. Everyone was fine but who new that you could have multiple wombs! Talk about your average monthly not being so average!
