    I am so sorry about your loss and unfortunately know what your going through. We lost our baby girl Ava at 18 weeks 4 days due to PPROM.

    I had bleeding for 5 weeks before the waters ruptured and cramps and clotting the week prior. I was in hospital when I noticed I was leaking at about 17 weeks. After a scan they sent us home to wait and go into labour, which didn't happen till 11 days later with some help.

    I have an appointment in a few weeks with ob/gyn to hopefully get some answers. We are still waiting on tissue test results. (It has only been 3 1/2 weeks since we lost her.)
    I have read though that if it is incompetent cervix that they can put a stitch in between 10 and 14 weeks. Might be worth asking about.

    You will be in my thoughts and I hope so much that all goes well with next pregnancy.
