My doctor explained that a short cervix can be congenital, or caused by cervical insufficiency or infections. Usually, if it's less than 25mm, they might advise progesterone or a stitch called cerclage. It's very manageable if detected early by your doctor.

I completely understand how scary those cramps can feel, and your anxiety is totally valid! Usually, they are just mild stretching pains which are very normal. Try to lie down and drink some water, but if it helps you feel calmer, never hesitate to call your gynac.

Yes, lychees are safe to eat, just don't overindulge due to the high sugar content.

For me, missed periods and sore breasts were the very first signs, but please treat your body with a lot of care right now. If you suspect anything, it is always safest to do a home test and see your doctor gently to confirm. Sending you lots of love and strength.

I am also worried about this. Can it be detected purely by blood tests or is an ultrasound absolutely necessary? I have my first scan next week and I'm very nervous.
