spin-off to incompetent cervix
how does the Dr. find out your cervix is short / incompetent if standard protocol does not include doing an internal from week 12- 30-something?
does it show-up on a regular sono? or do other symptoms suggest it causing the dr to do an internal?

Re: spin-off to incompetent cervix
the sono tech has measured my cervix at every sonogram so far, not sure what will happen with an external sono

I agree, I think they look at it at every sonogram.

Same here. I was good two weeks ago and then it dropped. I had no symptons at all. Apperantly, the contractions were silent.
I am also high risk, so I go bi-weekly and every time I get in internal sono. NOw, after this episode I have to go every week.

It will def show on a regular sono and/or if you expericiencing cramping/contractions.

Re: spin-off to incompetent cervix
ok that's good to know.... I haven't had an internal in over a month... at least I have my level II in 2 weeks...
It sounded scary to me to possibly have a problem w/ my cervix and not know about it, and have no one check it! That's a relief that they're checking it......
