The say that pregnancy is good for a lot of things as it stretches a lot
out, so this may
have happened with you (they could have broken apart and the body absorbed
them(?)
Or you may have never had them, who knows. I received my adhesions from my
first
c-section. When I was in labor with my second, they had to perform another
C-section
and low and behold, bar my son being 9 1/2 pounds, but when they cut me open
they could
not even locate the uterus(!) due to all the adhesions surrounding it and
covering it.
Needless to say, it was a LONG surgery, one where they had to push on my
son's butt to
try to push the uterus through the adhesion mess so they could pull it out.
It all
turned out okay, but of course now I'm a mess inside and have had a
hysterectomy and
more adhesion related problems. It also took me over 4 years to get
pregnant, but
I am so thankful I did. Everyone is so different, and every body reacts
differently
to things.
But you are truly blessed to be adhesion free and have 3 wonderful kids!!
Congratulations!

Dear Newcomer,
I was diagnosed with chronic adhesions that had 'wrapped' themselves
around my fallopian tubes and were making them adhere to the outside of
my uterus and all sorts of horrible things. I was told I could never
have children, and perhaps IVF could help. IVF couldn't and wouldn't
help because they too went in and had a look and found me full of
adhesions as well.
