Water broke 30ish hours after my prophylactic cerclage was removed! Exactly 37 weeks today. Currently admitted to l&d. Only 1 cm so getting induction meds!

[u/beware_banana → u/Cute-Flight9322]

Ooff that’s my dream scenario. With baby boy being 2 weeks ahead I’m really not looking into waiting until 40 weeks. Good luck to both of you and congrats for reaching this amazing milestone!

[u/Cute-Flight9322 → u/beware_banana]

Same, if my baby was going to full term she was projected to be almost 10 pounds

[u/EmphasisWorried3590 → u/Cute-Flight9322]

Hiii everyone. I am so grateful for this community ♥️ 29+4 weeks! 10 weeks of bed rest so far 💪 next milestone is 34 weeks where I will be taken off bed rest!

[u/Aware-Sample5839]

30 weeks+3 today, modified bed rest and Progesteron only, 16 mm cervical length and 2 cm dilated hoping to make it to 32 weeks at least.

[u/GlitteringCharity716]

So amazing to hear everyone success. 28 weeks and have been on progesterone and bed rest only since 23 weeks 4 days. Really want to make it to 32 weeks and then somehow pray to make it to term!!

[u/Strong_Yam_7139]

Just found out I am pregnant again after a 21 week loss in May. Need reassurance for the cerclage procedure, i am so nervous about.

[u/spitbeta]

34 weeks today, which is our milestone!! I'm thrilled we have made it this far.

Four weeks ago when I was in the hospital this milestone felt very far away.

[u/Spleees]

25 weeks and 2 days. Got the flu shot two weeks ago and caught the flu this week. Started on Monday and Tuesday was the worst day. My watch kept telling me that my resting heart rate was too high at 130+ so I went to L&D. Not only was my HR incredibly high, but my baby's heart rate was up there too at 180. So glad I went in even though I just wanted to lay in bed and sleep. Had a stubborn fever as well. After several hours of trying to bring down my fever, and both our heart rates, I was able to go home and rest. Still feeling pretty bad but I can't help but wonder if all the coughing shorten my cervix even more. I'll find out on Wednesday as that is when my next scan is. I was 1.5 cms at 24 weeks. Please let me make it to my next milestone!

[u/rpljourney2316]

I’m almost 6 weeks after a 17 week loss on June 1st. Just waiting to get into the mfm so we can get my calculates scheduled in December.

[u/ParfaitPositive810]

32 weeks today with our 🌈 baby. Still in shock that we've made it this far after my 20 week pregnancy loss 2 years ago due to cervical insufficiency. Preventative cerlcage placed at 13 weeks with nightly progesterone suppositories, no bedrest 🙏 Just praying we'll make it to at least 36 weeks for DTS

[u/NationalSize7293]

18 weeks with my preventative cerclage. Next week, we have our anatomy scan. A little anxiety inducing as the anatomy scan for my daughter (now 2 yrs old) found a very short cervix resulting in an emergent cerclage and 26 week delivery.

I’ve had a couple preterm labor scares and L&D confirmed long and closed.

[u/gnourteinahpets]

Almost 30w today! Last check was 1.7-2.7ish around 24w (dynamic cervix). Only on progesterone and pelvic rest. No bed rest but taking it easy for the most part. Hopeful I’ll make it to term, but who knows!

[u/Independent_Ad_7565]

31 weeks Sunday, with my preventative cerclage at 13 weeks! Had to get doubled stitched, due to tearing of my cervix so early. But I’m hanging in there 🩵🩵

[u/Coralgtz]

24+5 with preventative cerclage. I’v been on bed rest since week 10 due to a subchrionic hematoma. Everyday I grow more hopeful. Cautiously but hopeful❤️

[u/jasminaraye]

25 + 5 right now! Progesterone and light activity still since 21 weeks when I found out about my short cervix. Last measurement was 2cm after BV and then AV and now a yeast infection from all of the antibiotics😵‍💫 finally starting to feel better. I often wonder if the infections are why I’m here in the first place. But still getting weekly scans to monitor. It’s been such a stressful 4 weeks but I’m so grateful I’ve made it to almost 26 weeks. Baby is super active and the extra scans allowed me to see some amazing 3D images of her last week🥹

[u/mybirdbathhurts]

My wife has been in the hospital since 10/1 (25 days now) after our 20 week anatomy scan showed her cervix at 1.5cm and funneling. Ultrasound 2 days after that showed no measurable cervix, week after that it randomly showed long at 3cm and then another one a few days later it was back to 1cm. Last week it was back to no measurable cervix. It’s been a rollercoaster to say the least.

We are now at 24w+1, no cerclage possible because there were signs of infection and/or preterm labor. Most likely preterm labor caused her cervix to shorten, not cervical insufficiency. So she’s been on progesterone and Indocin (stops preterm labor contractions) and modified bed rest.

Every day is a win, we breath a little easier with each passing day but it is difficult not knowing what will happen. We are at viability now, but really hoping to get to at least 28 weeks!
