Anyone a high risk pregnancy?

Question

I had a complicated pregnancy with my daughter in 2020 where I was not only diagnosed with an Incompetent cervix (which led to an emergency cerclage), but my water broke prematurely (19 weeks) and I was in bed rest with once a week check-ins with a specialist until she ended up arriving early at 29w5 via emergency c-section.
Everything with my current pregnancy (daughter #2) is going well so far and I’m 12w3 along. But because I’m considered high risk I am going in for another cerclage next week and will start progesterone shots around week 16. My specialist also mentioned that they’d be scheduling my c-section (a necessity after my emergency c-section was so rough) for 36-37 weeks due to fear of my uterus rupturing if I go full-term. So I’m now looking at a mid to late October baby.
Is anyone else on the high risk train?

Answer

I’ve been on the high risk train a while. This pregnancy is high risk also. I had early onset preeclampsia with my first and was on hospital bedrest until I delivered my girl at 32 weeks. My next pretended in early miscarriage. My third sadly ended with my stillborn son. Now, I’m 11 weeks pregnant with twins and just praying we get to meet them and they are healthy. 
This high risk train isn’t fun, but we can do it! Best wishes to everyone! You got this!

I had a traumatic delivery with my Dec 2020 baby. I had an emergency c section where my uterine wall was accidentally cut and it went unnoticed. I hemorrhaged for 5 hours, lost 47% of my blood and had to have energy surgery when Miss Moo was 5 hours old which barely saved my life, and then I was anemic for months later. 
I’m at a high risk of hemorrhaging again, my obs wants to do a scheduled c section and have bags of blood ready. I’m due 13/11 but likely will have baby the last week of October

Answer

I’m high risk, this is my second pregnancy an me and my husband have different blood types I’m RH- he is RH+. That being said the RhoGam shot didnt work an im now sensitized to it but im now producing the antibodies that if get high enough will attack my baby thinking he/she is foreign an will cause the baby to become anemic or possibly could cause death but that’s worst case scenario. So this pregnancy, is probably going to be my last as I can’t put myself or another baby through this.

Answer

I'll be praying all goes well! I'm also high risk. My son was born at 24 weeks in 2018 an emergency c-section. We are just praying to get past 24 weeks the goal is 35/36 weeks but they'll be happy with anything over 24 weeks. I'm currently 12w 5d and have been doing daily lovonox shots as well as daily baby aspirin an progesterone vaginally. I had a placenta abruption as well as 2 vessel cord and sever growth restriction. He's 4 now and we are just praying to get past the 1st trimester. I also ho every week to check on the baby!

Answer

Hi I’ve also had to have previous planned and also emergency cerclages. I had the one for this pregnancy last week but my cervix length was quite good so I’m not too worried this time. I’ve also been diagnosed with gestational diabetes! But tbh this is by far the best I’ve felt throughout all my pregnancies

Answer

My oldest was born at 29w6d in 2016 but no one could figure out why. So last year with my youngest I was considered high risk because of previous preterm birth & did the Makena shots in the back of my arm once a week. He ended up being born at 39w5d with scheduled induction. I am currently 11w3d considered high risk again (pretty sure I will always be) I have opted not to do Makena shots this time for personal reasons & will be doing progesterone suppositories instead. 
How is your LO doing? Is everything on track developmentally? We found out my oldest has Spastic Diplegic Cerebral Palsy through MRI when he was 2.

Answer

Sure am, its definitely has made me morr concerned  maybe even paranoid

Answer

Same here momma! I have IC as well, unfortunately I had 2 recent IC losses and now am pregnant again. I’m 13+2 with a transabdominal cerclage (I got it placed in October prepregnancy). We are doing progesterone suppositories and the plan is to start the shots at 16 weeks as well I think. So far things are looking good 🙏 I’d love to stay in touch, we are at very similar points in our pregnancies
