stitch on cervix

Hi i am 13 weeks pregnant and Have had a hard pregnancy from the begining. I had spoting till I was 10th weeks then rhw cramping never stoped my Dr says as long as its not stronger than menstral cramps and bleeding I should be fine. But I had a misscarage at 20 weeks and they want to put a stitch on my 17 week. Has anyone ever had this?  I will have to go on bed rest but I am worried since the cramping never stoped if it will harm me more.

Yeah I only have the one Dr. And he is the one who will pit the stitch but since we ate in an area where its not that common. He is one of the few who have done it and I think ge has only done it 1 or 2 times. It's all in Gods hands.

I know, trust me, I have totally different issues but I've spent many a night worrying this little girl might make it through. I have 3 doctors working to make sure she is, and I only have a few weeks left so they've done their job well. Just make sure the person putting in the stitch has plenty of experience, and it hopefully will help keep the baby where she needs to be.

I know it's not uncommon when you have cervical issues. I have a friend who has miscarried a few times, once at 5 months because her cervix was too weak to hold the baby in. She's been told if she ever gets pregnant and hopes to carry the baby to term, she'll need it and be on bedrest too. Trust your doctors and follow their directions, they're trying to get you through this. Good luck, I'm in a high-risk pregnancy too, I'm near the end but I know it's hard in many ways.
