Laproscopy cannot detect septate uterus because septum will be inside the uterus and can be seen only by hysteroscopy. As you are pregnant now nothing can be done for the septum. Go for regular check ups and regular growth scans for the baby. There are chances of preterm delivery and IUGR etc so go for regular antenatal visits
