28 Weeks! A Big Milestone
I did it! I am officially 28+1 weeks along. There was a time where I didn’t feel like I would make it this far. I can’t believe it’s been exactly 8 weeks since I found out about my short cervix and all of this started. It feels so weird to say that I’m now officially…

Back to Hope!
Each week feels like a rollercoaster. This week has actually been quite good in terms of appointments and scans (but mentally, it’s been difficult). I had my OB appointment on Tuesday, she said that if I make it to 28 weeks then I can start being a little bit more active- short walks, prenatal yoga,…

Another Blow
I had my weekly TVU today. My regular MFM was off so it was a different doctor. Baby still looks great, but once again I have lost length. My cervix is dynamic so she gave me both measurements (with and without pressure): 2.8cm down to 1.5cm. My regular MFM usually gives me the shortest length…so…

25 Weeks!
Today I am officially 25 weeks pregnant. I woke up finally feeling hopeful…maybe even a little bit excited. The anxiety and worry is still definitely there, but I’ve managed to make room for a little bit more positivity as well. Every day that passes, baby boy will have developed a little bit more. Getting to…

24 Weeks- Officially a Viable Pregnancy!
Finally! Today I have hit 24 weeks, which means it is officially a viable pregnancy. But man, it has been a LONG 4 weeks between finding out about my short cervix (etc) until today. I was thinking I would feel a lot more relieved once today came, and don’t get me wrong- I definitely feel…

24 Week MFM Anatomy Scan
I had my 24 week MFM anatomy scan today (even though I’m 23+4 today), as well as a check up on my cervix. The anatomy scan went great! Baby looks excellent and is measuring in the 54th percentile. My cervix on the other hand has progressed…it is now measuring 2.3cm. So I’ve lost 0.3cm in…

An Optimistic OB
I had a regular check up with my OB today, and she knows my MFM doctor well and she was able to clarify a lot of questions I had: She said that the fact that my cervix has remained the same is very promising. If we can get me to 25 weeks pregnant then I…

No Progress is Good Progress
I had my second ultrasound with my MFM doctor this afternoon (third ultrasound/transvaginal ultrasound since discovering my borderline short cervix). I was anxious, scared, worried…but it is the first truly hot and sunny day here, so I tried to focus on how nice it is to actually be outside. I arrived to my appointment early…

Welcome! My Journey So Far..
I’m so glad you are here! I’ve started this blog mainly as a way to sort of journal my way through the second half of my pregnancy. This first post will be on the longer side as I catch up with everything that has happened so far. Exactly two weeks ago, at my 20 week…
