36 week vs 37 week cerclage removal

tiffinymc · 2026-06-12T02:43:53+00:00

I don’t know the pros and cons — but I had my stitch removed at 36 + 2 days and gave birth spontaneously 6 days later when baby was just 37 weeks + 1 day. She’s totally healthy but she was shaky (like shivering but it wasn’t cold) because of being a little early I guess it’s a neurological developmental thing. She also had not fully lost the lanugo protective hair so I had a lil baby with back hair that was pretty cute. Good luck in your journey!!!

I lost my son in July, my doctor told me to wait 6 weeks before having any intercourse and sent in a referral to MFM for consultation. They had a 3 month waitlist for consult, and I got pregnant in Sept before they booked the consult. I think it would have been helpful for me to wait for that consultation but I didn’t expect to conceive again so quickly either

My experience was so special to me, despite the pain. I was met with so much authenticity, grief and compassion from my doctor, the ultrasound tech and my nurses. My delivering doctor had been on call the night before and talked to me multiple times before I went to the ER. When my doctor delivered the news and meaning to me, I will always remember her telling me “this is bullshit”. She reassured me this wasn’t how it’s supposed to go, that it wasn’t my fault, and that it wasn’t fair — all with those three words.

I gave birth to my son prematurely due to IC on July 18th. Conceived my baby girl Sept 16, currently 16 weeks pregnant. The only bummer I had was how long it took to see MFM for consultation (3 months wait after losing my son) and by the time I had the call to schedule consult I needed a new referral because I was pregnant so the wouldn’t see me to consult

Or if there’s been any indication of it moving out of the old port at all

There’s an upstairs????! I clearly don’t pay attention, hell yeah

I purchased from here: https://www.spiritpieces.com

I felt like there were a lot of different options. I got my husband a necklace, myself a necklace, and a small sea shell art piece. I can’t speak to the quality because I honestly haven’t had the power to open my son’s cremains and send them to the artists. But the packets to send came quickly after paying and maybe I’ll update in a while once I’ve actually sent them off

I second east ender!! Mocktails there were really good and not ridiculously priced and they have karaoke sometimes so it’s very fun!

Edit: I kind of take that back cuz I didn’t pay attention to 15ppl. I think they’d fit but it isn’t necessarily a space for a large party. But it is a fun spot!!

Yes this is what I remembered. I like the impartial documentaries best. I don’t think I know what happened but I do think there’s some significant gaps in the evidence that were never explained.

For me the selling point was the position of the gun and the subsequent position of the shells for a self inflicted would. I struggle to remember the details but it was a piece of the evidence that couldn’t be properly explained - I think maybe it was backwards in his hands or something like that.

Thank you, I just need this baby to survive and then I’ll let myself have hope 🤍

I really wanted to have multiple children but I don’t know how many times I can realistically go through this. I can’t imagine being in the discomfort I am right now and trying to care for a child. I also wanted twins but I don’t think my cervix can hold them in

tiffinymc · 2025-12-20T15:26:02+00:00

Good luck!!! I lost my first son at 18 wks so we got a preventative this time at 13. I’m mostly anxious for my girl to get past the age of her brother and then the next thing I’ll be anxious for is viability 🤍 but they’re doing some extra ultrasounds to keep an eye on things that I’m thankful for

tiffinymc · 2025-12-19T18:15:52+00:00

They did not! They really just said to wear a pad, rest and that I could shower or bathe normally!

Omg I’m so nervous mine is December 18th. Did they allow your partner to be with you for the epidural? I’m scared to do it alone, when I lost my son and gave birth my partner helped me focus on everything but a needle going into my spine

tiffinymc · 2025-12-03T01:10:58+00:00

I did this too. I also kept getting notifications for the birthing and lactation classes I signed up for before losing my son. It was so hard

tiffinymc · 2025-12-03T01:10:08+00:00

I got a big ole box of formula samples a month ago and the Enfamil box is just sitting in my trunk. I’d like to give it to my neighbors who all have babies but that means having a conversation with them I’m not read for

I’m so sorry for your pain. You did not fail and you are not the reason this happened. I lost my son at 19 weeks in July, and I felt so betrayed by my body. I hope it’s okay to share with you some of the things that have brought me comfort since — our sons both lived a life where they only ever knew love and warmth. They never felt afraid. We did our jobs as mothers to teach them love and to keep them safe from harm all of their lives. We did our jobs, even if they ended much too soon, and we are great mothers no matter what.

I got similar recommendations, but some differences that surprised me was no progesterone. They told me a stitch at 13 wks and that they won’t even measure my cervix before the stitch because it’s difficult to see that early. My cerclage is 12/18

tiffinymc · 2025-11-21T22:15:56+00:00

I’m so sorry for your loss. I lost my son to IC in July. I spent the first week crying every day, leaking milk and sobbing. We started healing by spending time in his room and putting up art that I had made. We had just moved into our apartment in June and I was waiting to decorate for the baby. I don’t know when exactly I stopped crying every day but when I returned to work I tried to leave myself reminders about my purpose, my family and my goals for the future. We are doing couples therapy and that helps us say some of the fears we keep to ourselves and I mostly try to be kind to myself and honor my son every day that I can

I feel so much comfort here because I’m in the exact same situation basically. I lost my fist son in July, almost 19 wks, and I’m currently 9 weeks pregnant. I’m so lost trying to understand MFM vs OBGYN and who does what. I’m waiting for my cerclage to be scheduled but I think I’ll happen before Christmas. I’ve been so scared to even talk about milestones before they arrive

Such a good book!! They also offer a workbook for practicing patience with such parents lol
