Cerclage mommies 💓
Hey, so I had a cerclage put in with my son at 22 weeks in 2017. My Dr was very attentive and understood my needs. He agreed to take my stitches out at at 36 weeks on 10/05/17. I had my son at 37 weeks and 3 days on 10/15/17. My son was born 7 pounds 7 ounces full term no health issues at all! Now this go around I’m in a completely different state being seen by civilian Drs. The DR I am seeing now is saying she won’t even think about taking my stitches out until 37 weeks. And I’m so annoyed. Cause I not only have these stitches with no sign of pre term labor, I also take 400 MG of progesterone TWICE a week. And the progesterone suppository inserted every night! My daughter now is currently measuring a little over two pounds and a week ahead! Like I said no issues of preterm labor this go round. But I feel like them taking my stitches out at week 36 will give my body time to properly get ready for labor! I don’t wanna be still taking shots that will stop labor causing me to go over! I don’t wanna C section at all or be induced! Clearly waiting till week 40, my son would have been around 9 pounds. I’m just saying I feel like most of this stuff is unnecessary af! Plus the extra hormones are pushing me In to a bad place mentally. Idk I just need advice. I’m tired I feel like a lab rat at this point 😔
