WEEK 16

cerclage

WEEK 16
Anna had a cerclage done this week. This is were they put a stitch in the cervix to keep it from opening. With the pressure of three babies it is not uncommon for the cervix to open early and we sure don't want those babies falling out! This means that Anna is off work again for a few weeks. The procedure is done same day surgery and she was given a spinal to numb her from the waist down. It took all for 30-40 minutes and she was a real trooper. She had light spotting and minimal cramping afterwards which is normal.
