    Hi

    I haven't read any of the previous posts so my answer may have been said.. I personally had a stitch put in at 19wks as the U/S found my cervix was short and thin.. I was told there was 'no reason to think it wouldn't last to 36wks' I went into labour at 23wks.. Had my Bubs (twin boys) at 24wks and 2 days.. I have been advised that in a future pregnancy I should have a stitch at around 14wks...

    Good luck.. x

    Update

    Hi,

    It has now been two months and I am fortunate that physically I have returned to normal so I have been told I can try again now. Mentally I'm much improved also, going to work was a big step forward and made a significant difference for me.
    I didn't know about this but Logan Hospital has a private clinic run by Dr Draper who is an obstetrics\gynaecology specialist and she will be looking after me next time. I'm grateful for this as she understands how I will be slightly more anxious that usual next time .
    I'm meeting with her next week for a check up but we briefly discussed the use of a stitch next time and it will be done at 12 weeks.
    Anyway, first things first though, need to get pregnant for starters and then a day at a time.
