Ladies with shortened cervix who were put on bedrest..question for ya

How short was your cervix when your OB said it was time to go on bedrest?

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!

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.Chat Icon

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.
