I have one and know 3 other people with them, my awful consultant wants mine removed at 38 weeks, i feel this is far to late on as if i go into spotaneous labour it could cause permanent damage to my cervix. My friends (in other areas) are all having theirs removed at 36 weeks.
If you or someone you know has had a stitch, what gestation was it removed?
thanks

i am 29+3 now, so really it depends when the stitch is removed as to when she makes her arrival lol

baby is safe for now, gave us a scare last weekend though, i was very stressed as i had to have a glucose test and steroids int he same day, lots of needles er! Anyway she was a little quiet, but i wasnt too worried, then all saturday she was not as active still, so sunday morning i went in after having no movement for 5 hours, took a while to get the heartbeat, me and barry were beside ourselves, but they eventually found it, within 10 minutes i had relaxed and she started booting me again, stayed on monitor for an hour and went home! She has been her usual active self since!
the heat is awful isnt it, i am suffering i tell ya!
ooh the little madam, scaring you like that lol
Great to hear things are ok though hon, will give you a shout later on x x x
hi i have had a stich put in wen i had my son i had it removed at 36wks but another consultant who i spoke 2 at the time said he wldnt take it out until 37wks i think they all work different im 7wks pregnant so will have 2 do it all again! im sure u will b fine my waters broke on the day i was due 2 go in an have it removed my cervix was bulgin etc but it did no damage gudluck
Hi, I had 5 stitches (emergency op) at 17 weeks and lasted till 28 weeks. My waters broke and my stupid doctor wouldn't come in any hurry so I laboured for 3 hours with the stitches in. It hurt a lot but no damage was done.

I guess if you have only one stitch in it will only take a few moments to remove if you go into labour before you are due to have it removed.
