Cervix started funnelling.
Hi all
Had a scare this morning, I went for my weekly cervix check (previously had pre term birth and neonatal loss at 24 wks back in feb due to choriaminitis ) currently pregnant with my rainbow baby. I’m 23 weeks went for my weekly check and my cervix has dropped from 43mm to 28mm and started showing signs of funnelling. I’m on progesterone already and as a precaution today they have inserted an Arabin pessary.
I opted against the stitch as consultant said there is no research to say that would be any more effective at this stage than the progesterone im on and having the arabin stitch.
I feel so scared and anxious as I’m near the point I was before 😢
They don’t recommend I’m signed off work yet, but I’m worried sick has anyone else had similar experience?

I opted for the cerclage for peace of mind but do you feels right. Limit your activity & try to stay off your feet. Have they considered starting you on steroids for baby’s development just in case? Best of luck with it. I know it’s scary
Do your best not to stress. I know that is easier said than done but it will only make things potentially worse. Try to do things that bring you peace and joy and focus on relaxing. Sending you strength and hoping all goes well for you!

Sending you all the love, luck and strength at this time. ✨❤️💪🏽 I'd also definitely put yourself first and call in sick if needs be, this is no doubt an anxious time and you need to look after yourself and rest as much as you need to xx
