? About Cervical Length U/S

Hi Ladies,

I'm scheduled for weekly cervical length checks starting this Thurs. I know that my office does trans-vaginal u/s until the 13th week, but I'm wondering if they will be able to measure my cervix via an abdominal u/s, or if I'll have to have both?

They always measure mine trans-vaginally after my regular abdominal u/s. It's more accurate that way. They have done this for me every other week and will stop at 32 weeks.

They measured mine trans-vaginally and also the doctor was able to check manually.

They checked my cervix via trans-vaginal u/s up until I hit 30 weeks and then had my regular abdominal u/s to check the babies afterwards. They are doing biophysical profiling now and don't seem concerned at all about the cervical length. I am not sure that if that is common or not though.

I had to do both....my internal was always before the external.

My cervix checks have been every 2 weeks since 16 weeks and they're always transvaginal. They check it 3 times; 1 regular, 1 w/ them pushing on my lower belly and 1 w/ them pushing on my higher belly.

I also go for growth checks every 4 weeks and they do a "regular" u/s in addition to the transvaginal ones those days.

Thanks Ladies, that's kinda what I thought, but was hoping to get out of having to have the transvaginal u/s.
