I just asked my OB when he would take the cerclage out. He said unless I'm having contractions, and there's a risk of tearing, it won't be taken out until my 39week induction (for GD). I was surprised to hear this, since most of what I've read, cerclages are removed around 37 weeks. I will double check with my MFM when I see her again at the end of the month, because I know she said she regularly removes them at 37 weeks.

Had cercalge removed at 36wks I had an elective c/s at 39wks 2days wasn't showing any sign of labor.. Don't be surprised if you make it past due date. :-)

This is so reassuring. I'm picturing I would go into labor as soon as my doctor removes it.

Nope :0) Make sure you ask them to ck how much your dilated post removal. I dilated a finger tip and stood that way. At 39wks I was 4cm but no contractions. Its crazy we have a cerclage to keep baby in, once removed baby doesnt want to come out.. :0)

I hope to have a similar experience when my time comes. Fingers cross.
I had mine removed at 36 weeks my son came two days later but I was having contractions the whole pregnancy so much so the removal had to be done in the or due to contractions the stitch was embedded. This preg my doc says the same 36 weeks but shes hoping I make it to at least 38.
Got my cerclarge at 14 weeks removed at 35 weeks... Doctor said I would go immediately but nope still pregnant... 39 weeks, but just got my membrane sweep and lost mucos plug contractions are very strong so baby should be here soon good luck !
