Please reply!! Pregnant again after a 23 wkr...need some advice please!!Kaileesmomma09 - 04:23pm Dec 21, 2009 ESTHi everyone my name is Katlin and i am new to Share. I absolutly love this website even though i just signed on yesterday. I have already gotten some great advice but i just wanted more. LOL. Ummm i had my daughter at 23 weeks...they said my membranes ruptured probably due to stress. Now i am about 7 weeks pregnant and very scared. I do not know how to go about preventing this one from being to early. I have heard of the P17 shots as well as a cerclage. Which at my last check up (before i was prego again) my doctor had mentioned these for the next time i got pregnant. I am also scared because i cant see my ob until i get medicad and i do not know how long that will take. When are the shots and cerclages usually given? There is also the scare of a miscarriage. Please everyone reply to this and talk to me. I am only 18 and have gone through so much in the past year.

Katlin, I totally understand your panic and fear of being pregnant again...stress is definitely being researched as a factor of prematurity risk, but it's still ongoing. That being said, please try to relax and gather information to help you be more prepared for your doctor's visits.
I have not has the 17P shots, but I know they typically don't start until about 16 weeks from what I have talked with my doctor about. Also, a profolactic (preventative) cerclage is typically placed between 13 and 16 weeks (at least in my area.) I've had my two prevenative cerclages placed at 13 weeks. My first one was placed at 14 weeks when we found I was funneling/dilated.
Sounds like you are off to a great start by listening to your body, preparing and getting insurance taken care of.

Re: Please reply!! Pregnant again after a 23 wkr...need some advice please!!
Thank you so much for replying. It means a lot to me to hear from peolpe on here. I know my doctor had mentioned these a few months ago because iof what happened. I want to do what ever is possible to make this one to full term. Im so scared and every little thing that happens with my body scares me now that i know im pregnant. Like today i have been having some pains in my uterine area and its scaring the mess outta me. Is that normal?? Yes i need so badly to get my insurance so that i can get these prevenative measures set up to be done. Would i be considered high risk pregnancy now?

I would imagine what you are feeling is normal...being that early there are typically a lot of pains in that area, plus since your baby is so young your body is probably not 100% from being pregnant before. I say that because my youngest was 12 months when I got pregnant and I know my body was not 100%...that being said, the best thing is to call your doctor if you're worried. Taht's what we pay them for!
