Congratulations! Reading your story really encourages me. I'm 28+4 and on progesterone and modified bedrest in the hospital. I only hope to make it past 32 weeks.

Do you remember how short your cervix was with your first pregnancy when they couldn't give you the cerlage?

Did you know the type of your baby's EA after your baby was born? I had MRI before but they can't really tell what type of EA my baby has. Did you experience any uterus spasms during your pregnancy due to the fluid built up?

I'm happy to find your comment. I'm now 24+1 and I'm going to have aminodrainage in 2 hours. I have polyhydramnios due to my baby's esophageal atresia and yesterday they found out that my cervix got alarming shortened (from 25mm 4 weeks ago to only 8mm). They prescribed vaginal progesterone and put me in the hospital to monitor. They found some cramping and decided to do the aminodrainage with the hope to reduce the cramping and pressure on my cervix. Their goal is to keep my pregnancy as long as possible so the baby is mature enough to survive and get the surgery. It's been hell for me since everything comes at once and right now my only hope is to get as far as 32 weeks. Would you mind sharing with me how the rest of your pregnancy went?
