Do they know why its shortening? And what options do they have in mind to fix this? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cervix-issues#post-98921 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 09:34:49 +0000 Crisark 98921@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know nothing of this but I wish you luck with the situation. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cervix-issues#post-98908 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 09:13:03 +0000 meredithNYC 98908@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have not. However, I have had to get my cervical length checked every 8 weeks or so (I'm 30 weeks now) because I had a LEEP procedure in the past, which supposedly can do a number on the cervix. So far everything is okay, but there's still a chance of early labor.<br /> Good luck to you! I hope everything works out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cervix-issues#post-98906 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 09:10:41 +0000 Ms.SK 98906@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One signal of possible preterm labor is an incompetent cervix so the anwer is both. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cervix-issues#post-98886 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 08:45:16 +0000 tequiero21 98886@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i'm not sure but good luck!!! i do know that people say there's help if you have an "incompetent cervix".... i wonder if that's what it is or are you just going into preterm labor? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cervix-issues#post-98874 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 08:35:53 +0000 Ms.SK 98874@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My high risk Doctors have determined my cervix is shortening quickly. I am 22 weeks and my cervix measured .6mm. They have said there is no evidence that stitching it closed will help during a twin pregnancy. Has anyone else heard this? </p>
