Stiching has high success don't worry! But baby's being born that soon either don't survive or have many issues with organs, neurological and other delays but youre not in that boat they are watching you very well!

They may stitch it up if its getting shorter. I get mine monitored too since my son was born at 25 wks. They may just want to put u on bed rest as well. I have to take progesterone suppositories so I don't go into early labor. I wish u the best!! Just take it easy until then.
