My name is Hannah Bajor the Pregnancy Super Coach with over twenty years in the field taking care of women before, during and after their pregnancy.

So lets talk about molar pregnancy, what is it and you know what are the symptoms associated with it. Well, approximately one in every 1000 to every 2000 pregnant woman end up having a molar pregnancy.

Molar pregnancy is absolutely totally an abnormal pregnancy growth. Molar pregnancy is divided into two types. Type one you have a partial molar pregnancy and type two is you have a complete molar pregnancy.

A molar pregnancy is not a normal growing pregnancy at all. If it is a complete molar pregnancy then what this means is there is no baby, there is no placenta, there is no amniotic fluid, there is just a big mole and it looks like bunches of grapes growing inside your womb.

If you have been diagnosed as a partial molar pregnancy then this is what has happened. It normally means you had one egg but two sperms penetrated that egg and in this process of duplicating and multiplying.

In a partial molar pregnancy there was a severe abnormality of the developing embryo so you might end up having some baby parts. You might have some parts of placenta and you might have some water, but it is not a viable baby. There normally is not a heartbeat, but you could have hair, you could have teeth, you can have a lot of the babys body parts growing inside this mole.

What are the signs and symptoms that may indication that a woman might have of molar pregnancy. Well, the first thing is you might have excess vomiting in pregnancy. You might start being much bigger than your pregnancy days.

Your pregnancy hormones are sky high much higher than it should be for your gestational age and of course a complete molar pregnancy or partial molar pregnancy it is confirmed on ultrasound. When you have an ultrasound done with a molar pregnancy there will be no babys heartbeat, but there will be this grape-like mole growing inside your womb.

So what is the treatment for a complete molar pregnancy or partial molar pregnancy. A lot of the times molar pregnancies are absorbed inside the body themselves and you know that can take a couple of weeks or couple of months for it to happen. The body may automatically absorb the complete molar pregnancy or partial molar pregnancy naturally and if it does not then you might end up having a D&C allowing your physician can scrape out the inside of the womb.

The problem is all molar pregnancies is that you can produce pregnancy hormones from months after the mole is no longer visible. Molar pregnancies definitely put you at risk of developing cancer. So we are going to advise you probably not to get pregnant for at least six months to a year after you have had a complete molar pregnancy or partial molar pregnancy.
