12weeks/3months they can't do anything until 24weeks steroid shots would be given at 24weeks its way to early to even give medication so if you do have your baby the babys gonna be really small but you will delieve it wish you all the best and just try and relax and rest as much as possible

Yes sadly it can cause you to have a miscarriage I don't understand why your doctor would wait to do anything and not put you on bed rest on top of everything

I don't know , just relax and whatever is meant to happen will happen .
Be sure to ask your doctor and if you think your doctor doesn't really care as much you can always see another doctor  , just don't stay quiet ask a much questions as you can . Good luck and update us when you can

I am surprised she didn't say anything . My doctor said if they see any change in my cervix I will have to go straight to the hospital for them to close it up (down there) so I won't deliver early .

(Joanie8858) ,  i will tell you from my experience I am high risk because of previous miscarriges and preterm delivery , I am now 19 weeks pregnant and my doctor started checking my cervix from 16 weeks , they will be checking every 2 weeks until 36 weeks . So that's one way they can detect it early in pregnancy .
(Me and my baby2015) I wish You the best if luck and please rest as much as you can .
