Cerclage followup

So we had our week after followup with our perinatologist today...

Thankfully the stitch is doing well as well as our baby whose heartbeat is at 160...

We also were told that I will be getting weekly progesterone shots also called p17 shots starting in 2 weeks...I am used to needles so do not mind but the doctor said either I can go to my OB's office to get it done every week and/or have my hubby inject it...well he told the doctor and nurse that he would like to do it especially if I cannot make it to the doctor which needs to be the same day every week and will be learning how to do it at our next perinatologist appointment. Isn't he sweet?

I also wanted to see baby but all he did was let me hear the heartbeat and I did not ask...well it is ok because I saw our baby yesterday at the OB's office after I freaked out about bleeding I was having that was dark red...

Next week I am back at OB's office to check on our baby...

In other news...yes I am still on bedrest...but that is okay...it is for our baby!

And finally...I am in my second trimester! Yay! 14 weeks! But I am a little scared because the weeks we lost our daughter and son are coming up...weeks 18 and 19...and probably will not be able to breathe a sigh of relief until 24 weeks when our baby is viable...we need to then make it to 37 weeks! Those are our goals! So first goal reach 20 weeks...second goal 24 weeks...then I will say next goal is 30 and final goal when our cerclage comes out at 37 weeks...it seems so far off!

Oh and now I think I caught a cold...not good! I am eating lots of chicken soup and drinking as much fluid as possible...I really hope it is not anything worse (knock on wood)

Until next time!
