Cervical cerclage and internal OS open
Hello All,
I had very short cervical length at 22nd week which was around 15mm during ultra sound scan. Doctor suggested for immediate cervical cerclage.
Now am running on 25th week and this time also during scanning the cervical length was 15mm.
I am taking 2 times susten 200. But I am scared, what happens in the next days. How should I take care of myself and baby to prevent preterm delivery.
Will the McDonald stitch will hold atleast 36 weeks ?
Also, every week is there any chance that cervical
Length will go on decreasing? Please advise!
