Hi, I had Lletz treatment last Nov and it has affected my cervix. I have just had a scan today and cervix is 2.8mm, so reasonable and the same as it was 2 weeks ago, but it is showing slight signs of funneling. The consultant has said it should be fine for a while, but I'm in again at 28 weeks and they'll probably give me steroid injections then to help the baby's lungs as they expect he will come early. He says there are other things they can do too, if it looks like its going to come before 34 weeks, but after 34 weeks, they let labour progress as the baby should be ok. This has obviously worried me.
I have a dd who is 5 and was born at 39 weeks, but that was before the cervical treatment.
But I wondered what advice people could give me to help to prepeare for the probable early arrival of my little unborn son?
I want to be as prepared as I can, and reassurance and information would help me.
Thanks.
