Hi Ladies,
I am 16 weeks with twins. My doctor today told me that my cervix is low short @2.7cm. She put me on bed rest for 1 week and will remeasure me next week and see if it's improved. I was not a candidate for the stitch because it was too low or something and it did not have enough tissue to stitch together. Anyhow, she inserted this plastic diaphragm like apparatus called a pessary (spelling??) into my vagina to give my cervix and uterus more support. I have to wear the pessary all through my pregnancy. Also, I was put on prometrium suppositories twice a day to strength my uterus. Hope that helps. Please pray for me!!! I will give you ladies an update next week with my next appointment.
