Ultrasound shows Cervix shortened. Placement of the cerclage was good, stitches still holding. 

The next few hours were a blur, cervix was at 1.1 cm long. Worry of infection causing shortening, amino test. <!–more–>

Amino looks ok, final results in a week. Admitted to hospital, emergency cerclage revision the next morning if possible. 

Told we need to keep baby in till 24 weeks for a better chance possibility of an acceptable outcome. So scared about what happened last time but I have faith that he is strong and will stay inside.

Night before ultrasound I play the song Anticipate by Skream

I can’t wait to meet you
And I know, and I know
I’ll have to learn how to teach you
I need to let the fool in me go
I’m gonna work like crazy
Give you everything you need
Build the world that you will see

I will see you soon
I’ll be waiting at the other end
Take your time coming through
You will never have to do this again
I will show you all
Lessons I’ve learned will have to guide
I’ll come running when you call
But for now, just stay inside

Stay inside
But for now, just stay inside
