I went into my 35 week check up and i was having some contractions on and off and they ended up sending me to the hospital to get my cerclage removed the doctor was afraid that i could tear my cervix, so they ended up taking my cerclage out with out anesthesia and the scissors did not work that well it was so painful. They took them out i was still having a little bit of contractions but i was only dilated 1cm and they ended up sending me home. I felt pressure when i would walk and when i would get up to use the restroom. I had some bleeding but not alot. I then went into to my 37 week check up and i was still having contractions the doctor checked to see if i was dilated and thats when she found that i still had a knot in my cervix she sent me to the hospital again so they could remove it and it was the most horrible painful removal the doctor tried to remove it but it was too deep inside and tissue had grown around it and then she called in another doctor he made it worse, they just kept sticking there fingers inside of me trying to find a way to remove it, they ended up breaking my water by all the moving around they did!! I was mad i felt like if the other doctor wouldnt of came my water hadn’t broke he just made everything worse, he just kept sticking his fingers knowing that he couldnt remove it. I felt violated. My intention was to have a natural labor but instead they made me get the epidural in order to remove that stitch so they ended up putting it, they got another doctor to remove it he was able to do that fast and as soon as they removed it i was 3cm dilated and they started me on pitocin to start up my contractions my son was born about 4 hours after weighing 5lbs 9oz. This was my second cerclage i had this done with my second son but with him it wasnt as painful and hurtful as this removal.
