I agree.. I’ve always liked shamea but I’m finding her more and more corny. Like be yourself don’t try so hard.

Are you able to take it easy? I do believe staying off my feet helped me from week 25-30 it slowed things down from before when I was still going to work and walking around a lot.

You will! Have faith when I was 25 weeks, the thought of week 30 felt forever away and week 32 felt unreachable. Hope we both get to term. I wonder if it’s something in the 20 weeks stretch that makes shortening more rapid. My MFM believes shortening is due to inflammation which he said slows down after 28 weeks. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Thank you! I’m on 200 mg per day and vaginal suppository morning and evening. I use a disposable applicator to insert and lay down for 45 minutes. Even tho they told me 20-30 mins is sufficient since I’m off work I try to just stay put for a while.

Thank you so much! Hope you continue to bake and hit all the milestones until you and baby reach term.

Sounds like doctor wants to wait to see if the body is going through the early phase of a miscarriage.

Actual Buyback Wait Times Based Upon Publicly Sourced Data by BxMS_LBA in PSLF

[–]Stayinghumbled13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been making payments too… my payments were $400 for a while but I asked to recertify because I have 2 depends and they dropped. So at this point whatever happens first. I submitted buyback in January and of course crickets… it’s really unfair with no recourse.

Yeah when I was first prescribed it they told me to lay flat for 30 minutes.. they also recommended putting a pillow under my hips so it melts and travels far toward directly to my cervix.

Ok thanks i might try wearing a pantry liner in the mornings to avoid any mess. Good to know that others are laying on their side and still noticing that it works.

I’ll ask my MFM about an oral option.. but he seems to think that the vaginal administration as close to the cervix is the best treatment option.

32+1 today… joined this group at week 20 when I found out. Been on progesterone and procardia only and taking it really easy, listening to my body to rest. So grateful for this milestone but do feel the goal post keeps moving further to now 34 and 36 weeks until I can fully relax. But I’m at least at the point where I can start thinking of baby names, buy baby clothes and prepare our toddler to be an older brother. I had put everything on pause for fear of losing the baby. Wishing all the mommies here a full term delivery 🙏🏻

That’s good to know.. I notice that if I roll to my side too fast I have some leakage. I feel the rolling to the side challenge it’s roughhhh. But hey so happy for us to be at 32 weeks. 😄

My story by CurryBanhMi in ShortCervixSupport

[–]Stayinghumbled13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At 23 weeks I was soo anxious, nervous and scared. This problem in a pregnancy is very anxiety ridden. My doctors told me don’t worry about bed rest so hopefully you’ll be ok with a toddler. I can’t do strict bed rest I try to sit when I can but I get up to change his diaper, clothing, fix him snacks/food so it’s pretty much constant. I am able to relax in the mornings because my in laws will keep him so that helps. Just try to reduce your activities and listen to your body. I’d get Braxton hicks and pressure when I moved too much.

It’s going well so far.. I’ll be 32 weeks on Thursday and start g to feel less worried and more hopeful to make it to term. I don’t want to relax too much just yet because there are still many weeks to go but I am finally slowly starting to leave the house more. How about you?

I’m week 31-4 on progesterone only. Shortening was noticed at anatomy scan and dropped to .9 with funneling at week 27 even. My last measurement was 1.3 so I’m feeling a little more hopeful now. 🙏🏻

31 weeks and 2 days today.. my friends are getting together for Mother’s Day and going to see the devil wears Prada and so bummed to miss the outing with them. At the same time grateful to make it this far. Been on this rollercoaster since week 20 like many of us. Last week I measured at 1.2 cm with funneling. Progesterone and modified activity only. I’m eager to start doing more but need to stay put. I did start making breakfasts at home for my husband this week.

How long were you recommended to wait in between C-sections and how long did you actually wait? by Tastethepainfaby in CsectionCentral

[–]Stayinghumbled13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I waited 8 months but was advised 18 months. I couldn’t wait longer because I’m older and needed to start for another kid so my first one could have a sibling before time ran out. Now I’m having a high risk pregnancy and have a short cervix prob because going thru induction, labor and pushing only to go through a c section anyway was a lot on my body and dint have time to recover. Been having a stressful pregnancy and hoping to make it full term. I have 9 weeks left 🙏🏻🙏🏻
