An Interesting Twist
SO! As of yesterday, I have been admitted to the Antenatal Unit at my hospital. It’s been a crazy 24 hours. Going to do a trigger warning for bleeding (but so far it’s all a positive story) First I will start by updating that I am currently 30+6, I truly never thought I would make…

The Final Check
I had what I thought would be my final cervical TVU check three days ago at 29+2. It started with a growth scan, which went incredibly well. I asked the tech if she could re-measure the enlarged ventricle in baby’s brain, and it had shrunk to 9.1cm, (down from 9.5cm last week) so I officially…

28 Weeks! A Big Milestone
I did it! I am officially 28+1 weeks along. There was a time where I didn’t feel like I would make it this far. I can’t believe it’s been exactly 8 weeks since I found out about my short cervix and all of this started. It feels so weird to say that I’m now officially…

Back to Hope!
Each week feels like a rollercoaster. This week has actually been quite good in terms of appointments and scans (but mentally, it’s been difficult). I had my OB appointment on Tuesday, she said that if I make it to 28 weeks then I can start being a little bit more active- short walks, prenatal yoga,…

Another Blow
I had my weekly TVU today. My regular MFM was off so it was a different doctor. Baby still looks great, but once again I have lost length. My cervix is dynamic so she gave me both measurements (with and without pressure): 2.8cm down to 1.5cm. My regular MFM usually gives me the shortest length…so…

25 Weeks!
Today I am officially 25 weeks pregnant. I woke up finally feeling hopeful…maybe even a little bit excited. The anxiety and worry is still definitely there, but I’ve managed to make room for a little bit more positivity as well. Every day that passes, baby boy will have developed a little bit more. Getting to…

Is That…Optimism I’m Feeling?
I had another TVU scan today. The assistant accidentally did another anatomy scan, but it was nice to see baby boy for an extended time! Everything with him still looks great, and she even did a 3D scan which was neat!My cervix on the other hand has shortened a little more to 2.0 cm…thats another…

24 Weeks- Officially a Viable Pregnancy!
Finally! Today I have hit 24 weeks, which means it is officially a viable pregnancy. But man, it has been a LONG 4 weeks between finding out about my short cervix (etc) until today. I was thinking I would feel a lot more relieved once today came, and don’t get me wrong- I definitely feel…

24 Week MFM Anatomy Scan
I had my 24 week MFM anatomy scan today (even though I’m 23+4 today), as well as a check up on my cervix. The anatomy scan went great! Baby looks excellent and is measuring in the 54th percentile. My cervix on the other hand has progressed…it is now measuring 2.3cm. So I’ve lost 0.3cm in…

An Optimistic OB
I had a regular check up with my OB today, and she knows my MFM doctor well and she was able to clarify a lot of questions I had: She said that the fact that my cervix has remained the same is very promising. If we can get me to 25 weeks pregnant then I…
