What constitutes a shortened/shortening cervix at 19 weeks?

[Onelittleprincess]

Mine is shorter then yours and im ok.

Remember it is a small measurement and it could easily be a bit bigger then the ultrasound said pending they got the exact same spot as last time

It is still ok, the cervix can change, and yes it depends where they measure from.. Did the radiographer say anything that indicated concern? Are you getting under the care of an OB or Middy? Maybe ask them what they think..

Not sure what I think, I was interested to see the change but the sonographer couldn't say if the change is normal or not. I'm mostly interested to know if they would look at the measurements being 'on the border' of what they consider to be the higher end of low, or if they take into account the first measurements as my 'normal' and look at it comparitively. I know I'll find out in time, I'm just an excessive worrier and professional Google-er.

blessed - I'm a public patient but being 'high risk' after having a c/s first time round I'm seeing my hospital Ob Thursday and I think all going well they alternate between me seeing the midwives or the Ob, depending on the situation.
