awww...thank you...this is a pretty stressful preg...ive been doing my best to stay calm...i cant wait to meet my little bundle...im almost 1/2 way to full term and i think after 24 weeks the baby is a high chance of survival...i hope my baby hangs in there til at least 37 weeks :)
Glad to hear all is well! Girl, I can't wait until your due date because you are stressing me out!!!!!! : )
I know it is hard to relax but just try! Sorry you have to wait longer, but remember the best things in life are worth waiting for!
debbiefeff - its such a tough call with the short cervix because a normal cervix measures between 2.5 - 4 cm...im at the lower end of the spectrum but i guess some women naturally have a short cervix and my ob explained today that sometimes the baby is putting pressure on the cervix which causes it to be measured shorter in the u/s...so there is no exact answer...the only thing i can do is wait for my next measurement on may 24 and hope im holding steady at 2.5 or higher...if it is going down then the doc will most likely start me on progesterone....its going to be a long wait but im gonna get through it
udbe2 - thank you....im not sure if heperin can cause a short cervix...i do know that it can cause spotting...its such a tough call to start progesterone as i explained above...im stuck with more waiting until may 24 to make that call...my ob said that im almost at the point that they can help me with meds if my cervix were to start opening and if anything happens between now and then they will try meds to get it under control...just more waiting :/
Glad to hear all is well. Did they want to put you on progesterone just in case? I wonder if the levonox shots is causing the short cervix?
did your dr tell you what a shorten cervix might mean? when i went for my 20 week scan they said my cervix was long. do a short cervix mean you have to take it easy? is this your first baby?
ended up going to the doc already...all is well...cervix is closed and there's no blood on it...good signs
