Hi , I am 22w4d,have cerclage placed at 13w. I am taking 2 tablets of colonel in night still have lots of constipation.. tight stomach and tons of gas..

How you guys are dealing with all this?

Hi all, I am 21w2d with preventive cerclage, my cervix is measuring 2.8cm with no funneling, but it's been shortening from 4cm at 14w,3.1at 17 and 2.8 at 21. I am on 400mg progesterone nightly.

I am thinking to start magnesium to support my cervix , very confused in two of these? Please share which to take to keep uterus calm?

Hi all , I got my PC at 13w4d and cervix was 4 cm at 17w it was 3.1 and at 21 w its 2.8 cm .

No funneling, my OBGYN says he not worried anything beyond 2.5cm .

I am already on 400mg progesterone bedtime.

I WFH and do basic household chores though no bending or sitting down.

Do I need to increase rest or Its nothing to worry about .. what do you girls suggest?

I am trying to know what all can be done to prevent infections, because ladies with cerclage have higher risk of getting one .

I am keeping a close track of GD .

Pro biotic in morning

Cranberry tablet in night

And 3 ltrs of liquid .

Please share , what has workedforyou.. this info will be helpful to all of us .

Hi , I am 14+3 , I want to know that is it only me or you guys also have that wet underpants feeling all the time , it's like a bit wetness , If this is pee ... y does it leak .. because I try to employ my bladder whenever I get urine sensation. I had my cerclage at 13+1.

​

Honestly I am so scared to fluid leakage .. anybody else experienced this?

Hi all, I am 14w pregnant and had a cerclage last week. I always feel anxious about leakage..especially when I get pee in every 15 mints ..I had a previous midterm loss at 20w due to water break.

is here anyone else who gets this kind of anxiety.. if yes how do you manage it ?

​

I can't explain what do I feel but .. drinking plenty of water is important and this thing is actually weird to think but just can't help it .

Hi all I am 13w4d had my preventive cerclage today morning. My cervix was measured 4cm and doc said that every thing went well.

​

I had minimal spotting since morning but I noticed some fresh blood now which is quite more according to me . Actually I was tired lying down so was in half sitting position for like 2 hrs.

​

I am attaching photo below, if you feel comfortable please have a look and let me know, as per your experiences. TA

Hi, I am 13 weeks and due to previous mid term loss my doctors have booked me for a preventive cerclage on Friday. Please let me know how to prepare .. I mean what all I need to carry to hospital and how everything goes?

If given a choice I would prefer a night stay in hospital for my peace of mind and I live on 3rd floor with no lift, so I will get some time before using stairs.

Please share your experiences. TA

Hi, I am 12w4d I have been WFH since week 5 due to bleeding, as my GP was giving 2 weeks wfh recommendations, one after another its been like 2 months almost. I have history of 20w loss last year, now I have my next appointment with mfm on 11th of June and a scan on 10th June. In my last pregnancy my doc said I will need cerclage next time but as I have moved to sydney, I don't know dr.s will give cerclage or will opt track and see approach, in either case I don't wanna go office as it requires almost 3.5 hrs of travel daily.

What should I say to mfm to get such letter, at last appointment when I asked her, she said I don't know if we issue such letter blah blah , then I showed my GPs letter and she copied the same for 2 weeks .

Anyone been through this or got such wfh recommendation for rest of the term ?

I hv got my blood drawn on Tuesday.. how much time they take to share the results.. and do we get any notifications?

My reference was from MFM ..

Hi, I am pregnant and just entered in 2nd trimester, the 12 week scan is due in 1 week at 13week4days. I lost my last pregnancy at 19weeks pprom. This time my mind is playing bad games with me .. night pees bring trauma as in half slept state when I go to pee and suddenly start to feel as if water is broken ... which drives me crazy .. I have felt movement s in last 2 -3 days but haven't felt any today.. it again gave me anxiety .. I don't know how to deal with such things .. anybody faced this or similar things?

Hi, has anyone taken probiotics in pregnancy to help avoiding UTIs and other infections, if yes please let me know which one and did it help to keep infections away. I get UTIs very easily and I have lost a pregnancy last year due to such infections .. I want to try everything possible to keep infections away this time . TIA .

I have been passing small gel like red threads and some time bigger gel things mostly brown sometimes red had 3 scan since then and everything is fine .. baby measured 7w5d at 7w6d FHR 164 .. what precautions are you guys taking in spotting ? ... I have a history of miscarriages

Hi, I have history of high risk pregnancy . I am 7 w2d pregnant.

At 6w6d I noticed some brown clots and went for scan, fhr was 130 and baby was 6w5d which relieved my anxiety.

After 2 days, I again noticed clots, they were bigger and kept coming out for whole night whenever I wiped. All of my pregnancy symptoms are present. Hospital has asked me to repeat scan as the emergency doc could not see FHR with his basic ultrasound machine. He said that he isn't a sonographer and can do it from outside so he is not very sure about result.

Now the clots are gone again, in my last scan at 6w5d they said I have a fibroid of 1mm and fluid in my cervix .

Anyone faced this or has any idea what's happening?

Hi , I am new to sydney , My previous 3 pregnancies were high risk only 1 live birth , 1 mid term loss due to IC , this tym again I'm spotting and other previous symptoms my old gyneac said I need higher doses of progesterone and an aspirin from starting , which my gp is reluctant to give and I can't find a way to meet gynea in public hospital , though my gp has referred me in the beginning but westmead hospital isn't interested in any of my history , and isn't giving me appointments . I am 7 weeks , keeping all this in mind , I am not sure , they will give me cerclage or not . I don't hv private insurance , can I parellaly consult a private doc get the cerclage if I will make to that point hopefully, and continue rest of treatment in public ... anyone has idea on this? I can't afford a full high risk pregnancy private cost .

Hi, yesterday I had bad gas and back pain at mid night I checked there was blood on panty liner like a line and when checked with paper I could see a fresh red clot . And nothing after that .. please advise am I misscarring , I already had a scan at 6w1d baby was measuring 5w3d FHR 103 . I was advised a repeat scan in 1 week . I shud wait for scan or immediately go to hospital .
