Back in 1980, I lost two babies. One at 5 1/2 months into my pregnancy at the beginning of the year and one at 6 1/2 months at the end of the year. The problem was an incontinent cervix. Although they say it is not inherited, my Mother lost 4 out of 8, I lost 3 out of 6, my sister lost 2 out of 3. 15 years ago, my daughter spent 62 days in the hospital before her daughter was born 5 weeks early. Now, my granddaughter has been on complete bed rest for the past 14 weeks. They stitched her cervix up to keep her from losing the baby and they are going to cut the sutures on April 24th and say the baby will be born right away. That is how much medicine has progressed since 1980 and that is only 33 years. A lot has changed.
