How much did your uterus weigh in at?
I had a pap on Sept. of 2005. I had an abnormal pap so had to go back for a check up on Feb. 2006. I had noticed about Dec. that I was getting a belly, and I had been doing the total gym like crazy. lol....When I went for the Feb. appointment the nurse that was giving me a pap started feeling my belly and she was like, I think you are pregnant! She gave me a pregnancy test and everything. Apparantly this one of mine grew fast. And it was just one big gigantic one. I've got pictures of it that the nurses in the OR took for me. Pictures of them lifting it out of my belly and everything. It's pretty cool!!! lol...cool and strange all at the same time. Oh and it was just like perfectly round, not bumpy like some I've seen.

yeah i knew there was a problem when the physician's assistant in my pcp's office was pressing on my belly and said, "Wow...that's big! That's like the size of a pregnant woman's uterus!" Somehow, since I wasn't pregnant, I thought that might be a bad thing!
guitar has a good point...what are the prizes for the winners? and perhaps there need to more categories beyond largest weight...suggestions??
luv2wine, you started this one...any suggestions?

Prizes? Hmmm let me think.. so far Cinnamon72 seems to be the only one with the foresight or wicked sense of humour to take a picture of hers!
That's worth some sort of prize and she is currently in Second Place on sheer size.
How 'bout we all go and have a nice cup of tea or glass of wine if you like and make a toast to all our hystersisters! I've been on this site for most of my 5 wks post op and I can't begin to tell all of you how much support, info, advice and most of all humour you all have provided.
Yeah Hyster Sisters...ugly uteri and lumpy fibroids be gone!

Sounds like a great idea!
Maybe we should all drink a lovely Australian Shiraz to toast 'patchkaz' who is so far away across the very big pond.
And maybe just to be on the safe side, a Guiness or lovely cup of tea to toast any of our UK sisters!
Ok, I'm going to get started now while I wait for the rest of you to find the corkscrew...Salute!

LMAO,weirdest other stuff found? lordy, I guess about anything can end up in a uterus!!! Yep, those pics are in full color, I might blow them up to poster size, might be a good conversation piece when someone comes to visit. I could get them framed nicely and everything!! Yep, I'm warped too I think!!
