Hi Jessica,

It seems so long ago since I started that thread, but I can remember the anxiety like it was yesterday. You'll be pleased to know that I now have a beautiful 6 month old daughter who was born at 39 weeks and 4 days through a vaginal delivery with no complications that were related to my uterus.

When I spoke to the obstetrician about it during the early days I asked him whether it meant that it would be a high risk pregnancy and his reply was "No, not at all." Of course, me being me, I still worried and probably spent far too much time researching on the internet and scaring the hell out of myself - you are right, if you read about it, it doesn't sound very positive. Imagine if I had just trusted what the doctor said and not done any research - I probably would have been far more relaxed and none the wiser. It's hard though, you just want to find some information, anything, that will put your mind at ease.

Anyway, at my 19 week scan my cervix was still normal and I was told there was no longer a need to continue to monitor it. My husband and I went overseas for Christmas and I had no problems at all. In the end I went full term and she wasn't even breech! My biggest problems began soon after her birth when I was hit with full blown post-natal depression and anxiety, but that's another story.

I am now doing really well and, apart from a recent bout of mastitis, I've never been more well or happier. Try not to read too much stuff on the internet (that's hilarious advice coming from me) I think it often only serves to frighten you even more. Good luck with your scan on Monday. I hope that my story helps to ease your worries.
