Has anybody ever had this?!


Question: I went in for a ultrasound today and my doctor found what he called a membrane(tissue) streching across my uterus. I am 17 weeks pregnant and this might hurt the baby if it gets its arm or leg in it because it will strangle its limbs. I go in next week for a follow up but in the meantime i am trying to find information on this.

has anybody had this happen while they were pregnant?

can anybody help find a web site that I can find out information on Tissue in the uterus while your pregnant?

please help!

This is called Amniotic band syndrome (ABS).

If I were in your situation, I would ask for a follow up ultrasound, performed by a licensed ultrasound technologist and reviewed by a radiologist, who is the medical doctor who is the expert in interperting these scans. Best wishes....

i never heared about this but i think you should ask your doctor about this...................and i think the doctor might remove this tissue by surgury

good luck and ask your doctor
