Appt this morning was fabulous!! Dr.amazing did a quick speculum exam and my cervix and cerclage look great. He also did a vaginal ultrasound.
Now Ive had quite a few run ins with the dildocam during this pregnancy, but this time was different.
I was holding my breath, waiting for some bad news. Since I always seem to be up in stirrups when I get the bad news. And…Dr. Amazing smiled and announced that my cervix is now sitting at a beautiful 3.0-3.6cm!!
Nolan is head down, heart rate of 130 (he was sleeping) and looks beautiful. Fluid levels are normal.
Im still on “couch rest” and although this is excellent news, it is all because of the cerclage. If the cerclage was to be removed or fail my cervix would still be around 0.4-0.6cm. But its holding and doing great now!!
I blurted out (while in stirrups with dildocam still inside) “Dr. Amazing I could Kiss you!” lol
He looked at me like I was nuts!! And said “you could but in this position its a little inappropriate, and my wife wouldnt approve!”
We all laughed!
Im so happy I could do a jig! (but wont!)
Thank you everyone!!

Oh, Tiffany, I’m so happy for you!!! That’s an AMAZING length – it truly is amazing when you think of what these cerclages are doing for us, isn’t it? And to think that they’re kind of primitive, when it comes down to it – there’s nothing much more basic than just tying it off, but they do such amazing work!
