How far along were you? I'm 25 weeks and I'm measuring 2.1 (I'm also only carrying one baby). I'm getting totally worked up, which I know is bad, but my doctor is not calling me back with instructions. I wouldn't really be phased by this IF the NP hadn't been so adamant about me calling for follow up instructions from my OB. Now it's 2 days later and she still didn't call me back.

Re: Ladies with shortened cervix who were put on bedrest..question for ya
I went on bed rest in April at 28 weeks and will stay on bed rest until I deliver. My cervix was 2.5 and I have very cautious doctors bc they could already feel his head right behind my cervix. Plus I am continuously having contractions that I can't feel, my belly is just hard as a rock. I can't cook, clean, work, drive or anything. Very boring, but I'm now 34 weeks and hoping our baby boy comes sooner than later lol.

It's been 2.5 since 16 weeks. I went out on full bed rest from 22-28 weeks and now I am on a modified bed rest...sitting at work, no stairs, limited walking, no heavy lifting...at 30 weeks. I go back every two weeks to get it checked and no change even with abdominal pressure. Good Luck!

Re: Ladies with shortened cervix who were put on bedrest..question for ya
At 26wks I was taken off the road when my cervix measured 2.2 At 33wks it was 1.8 and I was also in preterm labor. Full bedrest with ProCardia 4x a day until 36wks. My cervix did lengthen again to 2.3 and stayed that way from 34wks until delivery.

Did you read my mind? That's the problem! I keep thinking I'm being a PITA but here we are 2 days and 4 calls later and she still hasn't called me back.
I hope you are feeling well too and I hope all goes smooth for you.

Re: Ladies with shortened cervix who were put on bedrest..question for ya
I'm only 15 weeks and have been on full bed rest for 2 weeks!!!! My cervix today was 2.5. I had a cerclage 2 weeks ago. They said I will probably need a revision. There is a 2cm clot next to my cervix so I'm hoping for some cervix under it once this clot absorbs.

Im sorry I just saw this. I was 19 weeks. after the cerclage i was on modified bed rest. Meaning I could g to work and then home to put my feet up. Had i not had the cerclage I would have been on full bed rest from 19 weeks on. i dont know if ur doc got back to you yet BUT if I were u I would stay of my feet as much as possible.
