when u get pregnant again, try dr cathryn chan of astra women. she ever saved a baby where her leg was already sticking out with the water bag. she used some balloon method to push the bag back to the womb. she told me she learn thst technique back in uk.

I was plagued with uti and yeast infection throughout my pregnancy. Even got hospitalized twice over uti. Took the antibodies which my gynae gave. No more uti after I delivered my child. Somehow it only happened when I was pregnant.

Yes, I did. I have 60 days hl entitlement n my gynae gave me 60 days of hl before I delivered. Delivered at mount e novena.

I too had a miscarriage n from that miscarriage, I was diagnosed to be having an incompetent cervix. 3 mths after the miscarriage, I was pregnant again n I went on to deliver a full term baby girl with a preventive cerclage placed at 14 weeks. My gynae monitored me closely n I did not go on...

I am very sorry to say, I will never ever go to Dr Phua. Last year when I was pregnant with my daughter, I kept having repeated spotting issues. Everytime he would give me hormones pills and asked me to rest. The bleeding got worse one day till I was soaking a pad. I rushed down to his clinic...

It's covered. Anyway, when I asked my agent whether cerclage procedure is covered, he was not certain and sounded like it is not claimable since it was a pregnancy related procedure. Nonetheless after I paid the bill upon discharge, I requested the hospital to submit a claim for me directly to...

when i started bleeding 2 wks post cerclage, my first suspicion was if my cerclage was tearing. i gave dr chan n emergency call n she came to see me at the hosp straightaway. she scanned me at my ward n was sure the bleeding was not from the cerclage as it was completely intact. she noticed...

there is an incompetent cervix awareness group on fb which i joined. most of them resides in the states n their treatment process for ic may differ slightly fr sgp. but thr is alot of sharing, discussion n support among the ladies. there is also alot of success stories posted by ladies with...

i was given augmentin before my cerclage, after a cvs procedure. i had my cerclage done on the 4th day after cvs and continued with augmentin for another week. my gynae said its good to start on augmentin early to reduce the chances of infection fr a cerclage procedure. she also asked me to...

Ladies, i had a leep cone performed in 2012 n was told that it will not affect future pregnancies. However, last year i lost my daughter at 13 weeks and was diagnoised as having an incompetent cervix. I got pregnant again this year and i went to kkh as a pte suite patient thinking that kkh...

I am so so so sorry to hear about your loss. Pls dont give up hope. I also lost a daughter before at 13 weeks last year due to cervical incompetency. Have faith, your rainbow child will come. My current gynae did told me the only thing she worry is infection after cerclage. I was put on...

Yes, above 2.5cm is the bare minimum. But as long as u have signs of cervical shortening, you should no longer be standing. By now you should be over 30 weeks, hope u are already on pelvic rest. Best wishes.

if a scan is done thru vaginally, it will be easier to detect and hear the heartbeat at 6 weeks. mine 6 weeks was 15x. 12 weeks was 14x. so far, always keeping around 14x.

Its doesnt hurt at all. I went to the toilet myself after i was wheeled back to the ward. Cerclage performed under full GA, anesthetian will control the dosage to ensure its safe for the foetus.

There is slight bleeding after the cerclage but was not sufficient to soak a pad. I only tend to see more blood when i wiped after using the toilet. it subside pretty fast for me. By night i wasnt bleeding red, juz some drops of brown stain. Cerclage procedure is not painful n until today i dont...
