A colposcopy is nearly pain-free. You might feel pressure when the speculum goes in. It might also sting or burn a little when they wash your cervix with the vinegar-like solution.

Question

I'm just wondering if it's safe to go for a normal delivery with my amniotic fluid index measuring between 9 and 10 cm. I'm currently 36 weeks and 2 days pregnant. Should I be concerned, or is it generally okay at this stage?

Question

I'm wondering about the possibility of having twins after two eggs were ruptured with an HCG injection. If both eggs get fertilized, are twins likely? And in a case where only one egg fertilizes, what happens to the other egg that was ruptured?

Question

I'm just wondering if I'll need to have a cervical stitch if we decide to go for a second pregnancy. Last time, during my second trimester, I had a cervical cerclage because of two previous miscarriages. My first child is 2 years old now, and I'm curious if this procedure would be necessary again. Any advice you could share would be really helpful.
