The day after my 8 week ultrasound I booked in appointment with the Midwife at the Obstetricians Office (this time we are going private after all the shenanigans we had with the local public hospital) I really wanted just one Doctor, who knew what he was doing, and so I had consistency!
The Midwife appt went really well, except for the part where I threw up in the carpark (urgh!) I felt really reassured by her, and got so much info about what happened in my last pregnancy.
In regards to the morning sickness; I've been suffering from quite bad ALL day sickness, it's been rough, as I have a phobia of vomiting, I know no one really enjoys it but it freaking terrifies me! But I've gotten through it so far.
I had my first appointment with the Ob at 11 weeks, and I got to see Little smunchie who was measuring well and my cervix was 3cm and closed. We discussed my last pregnancy and the complications, and organised a referral to get my nuchal scan and to get my cervix checked again.
Now this is the good and bad part! Yesterday I had my nuchal scan and got given a risk of 1 in 3000 which is great, but my cervix was 2.5cm :( but still closed thankfully!
So now I see the Ob tomorrow to discuss getting a stitch placed in my cervix, or to use progesterone pessaries for now and keep an eye on. I am absolutely terrified! It is so long from now to 24+ weeks (when the baby has at least a chance of survival) but I will take it one day at a time and hopefully get to 30+ weeks! 40 weeks would be great though Smunchie!
I will update you tomorrow x
