Hi everyone just looking for advice about cervical stitches
I had LLetz procedure years ago, and got diagnosed with short cervix late into my current IVF pregnancy! Measurements are;
25mm @ 20 weeks- started on progesterone suppositories
23mm @ 22 weeks
Drs have advised me on getting cervical stitch as the progesterone hasn’t worked, but have put the decision in my hands. They have agreed to give me one more week to think about it and rescan next week when I’m 23/24 weeks (nhs cut off for the stitch)
Does anyone have any success stories about getting the cervical stitch? I’m really worried about the risk of infection or any harm to the baby? How short was your cervix length when you had it or decided it against it, how long did you go before giving birth? Also, as I’m a nurse I’m worried that if I don’t get it I’ll be on my feet for long hours and it might shorten quicker ! help!
