Hi,
I am 24 weeks pregnant and at 17 weeks I had an elective shirodkar suture put in due to a previous loss at 22 weeks. (Angel Annie x) I had my cervical scan today and whilst my cervix measures the same length. 2.1 it is open up to the stitch and the closed after the stitch. The stitch is still in place and seems to be holding it all together.....
My consultant has admitted me to hospital for bed rest for the remainder of my pregnancy and administered some steroids for the baby's lungs incase I do deliver far to early (he assures me I won't. I wish I had his confidence!)
My head is not in a great place even though I know I'm in the right place with all the preventative measures I could have. I'm still so scared. Has anyone been through this? With a cervix open up to the stitch, that can tell me a success story? I'm so frightened.
