Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion it appears from your history that there is recurrence of preterm labour.As it is recurrent the cause for preterm labour like short cervix should be ruled out.Actually in case of short cervix a cervical stitch can be applied around 15-22 weeks.Once the cause is treated the preterm delivery can be prevented.So relax.Nothing to worry.
