I went to the doctor on Thursday and I knew something was wrong when I my ultra sound technician told me that I had a short cervix and, after leaving to go talk to the ultra sound doctor, told me that I had to go see my own doctor.
After waiting for an hour I requested to see another doctor as mine was ultra busy! But as soon as I was in the room my doctor ran over and informed that she had to be the one to see me, so that threw up even more red flags.
By the time that she got there an hour later I was exhausted and nervous. She told me that the length of my cervix is 0.5cm short, which puts me in the category for high risk of pre-term labor and in two weeks I have to go back to determine if I should be on bed rest. I didn't even know what to think or say at that point, I'll have my next appointment in two weeks and we'll go from there.
I am so grateful for all the family and friends that have been supporting me through this. My mom and two of my nurse friends (Heather and Rachel) have really been a great support giving me advice and helping me gain a better understanding of what this means. Thank you to everyone.
