At 19 weeks I’ve been told no sex by the dr and preterm labor risk

Caitlin

My baby is absolutely perfect in every way so far. I had my anatomy scan yesterday and she was just perfect.

I on the hand i guess not. I’m staying positive but I did totally cry a few times yesterday which I guess is normal to be worried.

My placenta is low which the dr isn’t worried about yet so I stopped worrying, but my cervix is almost too short/small. Enough to put me on a vaginal hormone already to keep me from going into preterm labor and no sex and no lifting over 10lbs. She said not bed rest but might be a thing later on for me.

It’s just crazy. I’m healthy, I guess not the youngest (34) but certainly not the oldest. I guess I just can’t fathom being put on a type of rest this early into pregnancy. Maybe it is a fairly normal thing. I’ve never been pregnant before.

I’m super positive and calm and haven’t been stressed. I’m still feeling calm just more surprised by this.
