Hi, I am hoping for some reassurance or advice. Apologies in advance for the long winded description! My daughter was born 10 weeks early back in 2013. I was admitted into hospital because of membrane abruption at 29/2. At exactly 30 weeks whilst in hospital, I was called for a routine scan, at which point I could not sit and felt pressure like I needed to go to the toilet. (I had been suffering from constipation and had been taking laxatives hence thinking I had to go). Long story short, they discovered she was in birth canal, I was 9cm dilated and her foot was out. Very quick forcep delivery under general. She is now a very healthy toddler and the outcome was positive.
I am pregnant again and was taken in on Wednesday at 13/1 for cervical cerclage. Unfortunately, when they went in they discovered I have no cervix beyond vaginal wall. They were able to pull some through and place a stitch at the end but are not hopeful that it will hold. I hope this makes sense! I have been put on modified bed rest. I am really scared now and finding it really hard not to stress and worry. Every twinge I think it's all over and so so nervous about going to the toilet. Has anyone similar stories or any advice? Again, apologies for the length of this post!!
