Hello, My OBGYN Wants To Perform Next Week A Fetal
Hello,
My OBGYN wants to perform next week a Fetal Fibronectin test on me. I'm not experiencing any issues, however, I did go into pre-term labor with my last pregnancy. I'm currently 28 weeks and I have a cervical stitch and receive weekly HP 17 injections, once a week. Last anatomy abdominal ultrasound revealed my cervix was still high, placenta looked good and baby healthy. I'm a little hesitant though because I've read it's not recommended for someone who has delivered early in the past or has a cervical stitch. With my last pregnancy I started to have complications after my cervical exam close to 33 weeks.
