Welcome! I have had 3 miscarriages (20 weeks, 14 weeks & 9 weeks) before getting a cerclage and thank God it worked for me! I have had 2 cerclages actually. My girls were all preemies though. My twins were born at 34 weeks. They were 3lbs 12oz & 3lbs 15oz. They spent 3 weeks in the NICU and thankfully didn't have any major complications. They will be 7 in a month and you would never know they were premature! My baby girl was delivered at 32 weeks & she weighed 3lbs 14oz. I was given the steroid shots with her. She was also in the NICU for 3 weeks. She had some breathing issues & was on a ventilator but only for 24 hours & then went on the cpap for another day or so. Other than that she didnt have any major issues either. She did have a heart murmur but it was better by the time we went to the cardiologist when she was about 4 months old. She is now 15 months old & doing great! The doctors are so impressed with her & how far she has come.

I hope your pregnancy continues to at least 30 weeks! Good luck!
