Maternity Wellness Journey of High Risk Pregnancy…Story part 1 : When Waiting Becomes Survival

This summer, what I’m really hoping for is a little peace of mind. After losing my baby at 21 weeks, then going through another pregnancy filled with fear, hospital visits, and a cerclage, every day has felt like a test. What should have been simple, like just “waiting,” became a full-time fight against panic, doubt, and the fear of losing everything again.

There was a moment when I thought I was finally safe. At 22 weeks, everything looked fine at the clinic. Then just 3 days later, I was told my cervix was open and very short, and I needed a cerclage right away. I remember the fear, the tears, the sleepless night in the hospital, and how much it meant when someone finally took the time to truly reassure me and explain what was happening.After losing a pregnancy and then facing a high-risk one, I’ve realized that parenting starts long before birth, in the waiting, the fear, and the moments when you just need someone to listen.

What made those days easier was not a perfect solution, but real support, clear information, and the chance for my baby to still have a chance. That is what moms really need: calm, honesty, and small moments that help us breathe again.

One kind explanation, one honest doctor, one night where someone truly listens — that can change how a mom carries her whole day#momcozyteampartners

Awww mamma. That was so hard and im so sorry you went through this. Pregnancy after loss unlocks a fear that is indescribable; where most moms have joy, we have fear. I wiped and was scared to look at the tissue all the way up to induction day; I felt robbed.

I swear @barb , besides sometimes ignoring sometimes acknoledging the situation or fearing attachement, there is no manual or straight way to get passed it truly. Im learning not to be too detached from my new miracle . But the fear never leave til induction day . I just sometimes feel angry at myself cause my Little miracle didnt ask for it and kinda having to accept the charge of previous loss.

I’m so sorry you are having to go through that you are so strong. With my first I had a subchronic hemorrhage was on strict bed rest and would bleed anytime I got up to do anything for the entire first trimester and it was terrifying until it cleared so I could not imagine what your are going through especially after a loss that is extremely hard but you are so brave. I am so glad that you had someone to explain what was going on and to help ease your fears a little that means so much when you are scared and need reassurance. You are absolutely right to me parenting begins when you see those two pink lines they grab your heart and your entire world changes in that moment. Praying for the rest of Your pregnancy journey and that your delivery is easy and quick :smiley:

That sounds so scary! I am so sorry you are going through this. It’s harder when we have lost a previous pregnancy. It sounds like you have a really good doctor, and I’m so glad they are reassuring you and explaining things to you. We didn’t discover that my cervix is too small until I was induced for labor. I had to be rushed in for an emergency C-section! So it’s good that they are finding this out early. I pray things start going better for you so you can enjoy your pregnancy a bit. :heart:
