Soft cervix _ pregnancy
I had a cervical cerclage today at 13 weeks due to previous preterm labor at 7 month. After procedure my doctor told I have soft cervix and need complete bed rest. I'm too worried as I'm not ready to face another loss. How does the stitch put up in case of soft cervix? Will I be able to make it to term on complete rest??

It’s reasonable to be concerned but don’t worry only because of soft cervix.
I need to ask you few more questions and you also need to take some medications. So please book an online consultation.
