Cervical stitch

My cervix was measuring 41mm at 15 weeks, I just had my 20 week scan and it’s shortened by 17mm and is now measuring 24mm. I’m having the stitch tomorrow. Any positive stories? I lost my firstborn at 23 weeks and I believe it was due to my cervix shortening.

Baby moving on scan

I’m probably just overthinking, had scan at 12 weeks and then just after 13 and the baby did move but not a lot on the scan just once or twice, but keep seeing videos of other scans where the babies move constantly, should I be worried??
