Bed rest
Our viewpoint on bedrest has changed significantly in recent times. For years doctors prescribed bedrest for bleeding during pregnancy, placenta previa, to treat preterm labor, etc. The only problem was that no scientific studies have ever shown that bedrest makes any difference. At this point we are recommending "modified" bedrest meaning resting in bed or on the couch for 4 to 6 hours a day. Getting up to use the bathroom or make a meal for oneself is not a problem.

What is cerclage?
When woman has one or more miscarriages in the second trimester, especially if she is found to be significantly dilated without much pain, cervical incompetence is usually suspected. Cervical incompetence is a condition where the cervix is not strong enough to hold in the pregnancy. A cervlage is a stitch or suture that is placed around the cervix to prevent it from dilating. It is usually removed around 37 weeks to allow the cervix to dilate with labor. READ MORE
