Hello, I am new to this site. I'm 19wks pregnant with baby # 2.....I've had really hard pregnancies in the past which requires me to have surgery with each pregnancy. So far so good...

:wave: Welcome! And good luck with your pregnancy!

What were the surgeries for (if you don't mind me asking)?

HI and welcome Lakesha. I hope the pregnancy continues to go well for you. Do you know if you're having a girl or boy?? What do you have now a girl or boy?

Congrats and welcome Lakesha :wave:

I hope this pregnancy is uneventful and that you are holding that sweet baby in your arms before you know it :)

#2 is such a joy, you just wait and see :nod:

Well, I had 2 previous miscarriages both at 5 months. I have an incompetant cervix. The surgery that I have to go thru each time is called a cervical cerclage. They stictch your cervix so it stays closed like a drawstring. I had the surgery at 13 weeks and they usually take it out at 36/37 wks. They give you an epidural so you won't feel them working on you. I have Dr appts every 2 weeks and ultrasnds like every 4 wks. I know God will work everything out so that eases my worries a bit. I went today to find out the sex but the baby would not co-operate..lol

My daughter will be 5 in April and her name is Heaven.

Thanks for all the replies and I hope you guys will continue to do well also.

Lakesha :-D

:hug: From what I understand, the cervical cerclage works well -- the problem is in not having the incompetent cervix diagnosed, is that right?

Hope all goes well for you! April 5 isn't too far off :hug:

Months are measured as nine months on the calendar -- starting one week after your last period :) -- so at 20 weeks, you are about 5 months.

Lakesha, I'm curious to hear how your pregnancy went!

Is everything okay?
