HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

I am sorry for your loss.

The likely cause is cervical incompetence which is the reason that your doctors would have applied the suture in the second pregnancy.

You would need to have another stitch placed at the end of your first trimester.This would be done after the doctor assesses the baby by ultrasound for any problems.

There are two techniques for placing the suture but they are both effective.

The use of progesterone supplementation in addition to the suture is also an option.This may increase the chance of success

I hope this helps
