Incompetent cervix and cervical sutures - Experiences please

Sunny - I had steroid injections at 23wks with the twins, I also know of other people who have had them before 32wks, so that's strange you were told after 32. I just re read your story and it is so amazing. 38wks is considered full term and you made it there! Thanks for sharing. I am staying positive for the most part. It's day by day really, but I have been doing meditation and visualisation. Seeing my baby come home full term and telling my body it will nurture this baby til then seems to help, even if it's only my state of mind

RB- I was 23+4 by the time I had the injections with the twins. I will ask all these Q's tomorrow and just see what they say.

Hi Thanks for thinking of me. Yesterday was a long ass day and I have had a headache all day today, so I'll be quick and just copy and paste what I wrote in my buddies thread lol..

Scan showed a closed cervix measuring 3cm When I saw the OB it was a different one my normal OB was at a conference This OB I didn't like much, but he reckons the cervix wasn't even open he reckons it was fluid creating the illusion it was open However... I'm not sure because I did see a registrar after the scan last week and he was the one that showed me the open bit on the picture.. ANYWAY, whether it was open or not last week doesn't matter, it isn't now. I'm still on self imposed rest because after this scare it's what I feel comfortable with.. I have another scan in 2 weeks and hopefully my Ob will be back and I wont see the one I saw today. There was just something about him y'know........
