First, I have to say that at the moment I'm not pregnant... However, after a check up with a new consultant on Wednesday he has advised me to have a cervical stitch immediately if I do get pregnant again. (We are going to start trying next month.)
Now, I thought that cervical stitches were done later in pregnancy - is this right? Has anyone had one very early?
IMO it seems a bit crazy to put one in, if the pregnancy is possibly going to miscarry, and at 4ish weeks you can't tell that can you. I've had 3 mc's so am very wary... (They were all 12 weeks or before - if they'd been later losses due to IC then I could understand the recommendation for the stitch)
Any advice on cervical stitches would be appreciated, especially from anyone who has been told they'd need one because their cervix is open when not pregnant?? Does this mean I have an IC?
Help please! Am very confused!
