My name is Kimberly, I am 38 year old mother of 1 adult son, and a little over 15 weeks pregnant. So far the pregnancy has gone ok, but I have been feeling a heavy lower pressure in my uterus and am starting to worry. I have not had any cervical issues/surgeries(even minor ones)or any of the risk associated with an incomplete cervix so I should have no valid reason to suspect one other than the pressure. How common is this condition, and does it usually happen even after you had a normal pregnancy? I was wondering if your cervix weakens over age.
I am going to see the doctor tomorrow, and she has not done a pelvic exam or a trans-vaginal (I have had abdominal ones).
Is this something I can ask her to do? Also...I had a miscarriage at 11.5 weeks(blight ovum) and had both a transvag, and a pelvic. Would they have picked up an I.C then?
Sorry for the bombardment of questions, this pregnancy has me a nervous wreck!
