I have to go Monday to my high risk specialists. They are going to go ahead and get a cerclage for added protection this time.

They are going to put it in at 13 weeks. It is an outpatient procedure but requires bed rest and a increased risk of infection. This also means pelvic rest and unexplained bleeding....as if I wasn't worried about bleeding enough.

I am ready to have this done, I know that if I do have an incompetent cervix it will help keep the baby in place.

I'm 12 weeks today, I found out on March 9th my new due date is Sept. 26th., and both of my ultrasounds have been good, the baby is measuring right, and the heartbeat is strong. I got to hear it Monday and Wednesday with my home nurse.

I'm just really nervous. It is coming up on the time that if I do have IC, my cervix will start effacing and shortening and funneling to the stitch. The stitch has a 80% success rate, I am just so nervous.
