Shortening cervix worry
So a month ago my doctor suggested I start progesterone injections the injections took 3weeks to be approved by my insurance so I got my first injection last Thursday that same day I had an ultrasound and my cervix was at 2.6 my doctor explained it was good that we started the injections because at 2.5 he would be worried but that hopefully the injections would start making a difference well the day after getting the injection the bottom of my belly felt so heavy and I was extremely uncomfortable I attempted to call the office but the nurse wasn't available and was told to call after hrs🤦🏿♀️ anyway I wait and get someone who only relates messages to a Dr (not my dr) but that Dr said that wasn't a normal side effect of the injection and to go to the hospital...I didn't but felt great the next day which was Saturday and also great on Sunday well Monday comes and while at work I'm extremely uncomfortable and in pain I finish my work day and go to the hospital after I was checked and my cervix was at 1.6 but that it was still closed 😥 the dr there told me he would let me go home only if I went straight home and went to bed and called my dr in the morning...my dr called me at 830am the hospital I went to he works out of so he knew I was there the night before we talked he said he was going to be making some calls to figure out what we're going to do but I absolutely had to be off of work and be on bed rest he also decided I start progesterone gel vaginal suppositories/injections we talked about doing a cerclage but that I have to wait to see the high risk specialist which isn't until April 5th 😫😥 I am trying so hard not to worry but I am freaking out that it's taking too long to do something I feel like something should be done now but they told me this is the process. Baby girl isn't due until July 31st I'm only 21 weeks and 5days I had my son at 27w6d and he was in the NICU for 8 weeks it was so rough and baby girl is just way too early. So now I'm just laying here and praying baby girl just keeps on baking I'm excited to meet her but just not yet!🙏🏿💝
