Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM
Unstable lie means fetus is changing position very rapidly,but it is very early to comment on fetal lie.Fetus tends to change its position in early months.Don't worry about this.
Cerclage is the treatment of choice for incompetent cervix.You should go for it.In this procedure cervix is tied at its base due to possibility of early opening.
Hope i have answered your query.
