Hello Ladies, just hoping to find a little reassurance. I was taken into hospital at 25 weeks after having lots of painless tightenings. I was given an ffn test which came back slightly positive and my cervix had shortened to 1.7cm. I was given steroids for baby's lungs and spent a week on the ward being monitored. Luckily, my baby seemed to be growing fine and is a good size and there's no problems with the placenta/cord etc. I was discharged from hospital and have been advised to rest at home in order to try to keep my pregnancy going for as long as possible. I'm nearly 28 weeks now but still feel really frightened and down. I feel so helpless and anxious and just want my baby to be safe and well.
Has anyone had a similar experience? I feel very overwhelmed and would love to hear some positive stories or some reassurance.
Thank you.
