On IUD, Thinking Of Conceiving. History Of Having Twins, Bed Rest Due To .08 Cervix. Possibility Of Short Cervix Again?

Hi, I am 28 and my husband I are thinking about having another baby, we have 4 year old twins. I have an IUD. With our twins we had 3 rounds of clomid. But at 20 weeks my cervix was at a .08 and was put on bed rest. I would love to have another baby but I am scared about going thru what we did with the twins. What is the possibly of having a short cervix again? I don't know if it was just because of the twins. Thanks for your advice.

Hi, thanks for the query

As per your history, you had cervical incompetence in last pregnancy. Twin pregnancy might have been an aggravating factor but not a root cause of your problem.There are very high chances of having cervical incompetence again in your next pregnancy.But, there are many procedures available now a days to avoid abortion with such pathology.

You should plan your pregnancy and take specialist advice regularly so that necessary measures can be taken on time.

Hope this information is helpful and informative to you. If you have any further query you can directly reach out to me on the following URL:
