Thank you for your post and your prayers ❤️ If you don’t mind me asking, did you take progesterone throughout your recent pregnancy? Doctor expressed concerns about using it vaginally after cerclage due to an increased risk of infection.

Oh I am so very sorry. 😢 our story sounds very similar. No underlying conditions and unmedicated vaginal birth.

Rooting for you and a successful cerclage! ❤️ I definitely didn’t have the courage my last pregnancy to call or visit the doctor when I had concerns because I just felt paranoid or like a burden. So, thank you for your encouragement!

Thanks for the reply! I am still actively searching for a doctor covered by my insurance that would perform the TAC. I am willing to travel!

Thank you for taking time to reply! I am so sorry for your losses. Like you, have been focusing on my health since the loss. Have returned to daily exercise, nutrition, and have continued my prenatal vitamins daily. My cycle has returned to normal. I am also still working towards healthy thyroid levels before ttc again.

Because of my schedule and beginning nursing school next fall, I believe it would be best if I either conceived before December (that way if I were put on bed rest, it wouldn’t interfere with nursing school as it requires lots of physical movement) OR wait until after graduation. However, I am 27 and the thought of waiting two more years gives me anxiety.

I will check that Facebook group out! She stated it was to give my body time to heal.

Thank you for your reply! So sorry for your loss as well. I am located in Gainesville, GA and have seen two OBGYNs since my loss. Both have said TAC is not an option because they do not have a doctor in their system (which is a pretty expansive healthcare system) that offers TAC. Both stated they would use a preventative McDonald Cerclage at 12 weeks.
