How should your cervix feel if your pregnant?

dr_sarah · Sep 7th, 2008, 02:11 AM

Just as the title says ladies, any idea of how your cervix should feel if your pregnant? I am getting desperate now as you can tell. Mine is high up, hard and closed...due AF on Tues ( chart says 10th but its definately the 9th...long story).

I am not testing till I am a day past my period as im too scared to now

So any ideas?

Hi

I always believed that the CP is not a definite sign of PG. It differs from lady to lady. It should go up high, but the timing is where we all differ, some go straight away, some can take 5-6 weeks.

Best to test when you're ready, it's the only sure-fire sign!

Best of luck

The cervix is definitely NOT a good indicator of pregnancy. I have been in the same boat as you before and conducted thorough research, desperate for a sign. What I found was very good advice that every woman is different and that the CP cannot be used as a reliable indicator because in some women it only goes to the position it should be at (and stay at) during pregnancy after a couple of weeks after they get their BFP. In some cases, it has been know to settle in that position after 6 weeks.

Therefore, don't torment yourself any further with this one or you'll drive yourself demented. Sending you some patience

as this has got to be one of hardest qualities to have at this time for us all.

Best of luck honey.

My CP is NEVER what the books tell me it should be. Even at Ov it is always in the wrong place. And I don't think poking and prodding all the time can be any good, so now I've stopped checking!

Sorry to say this....but welcome to the 2ww! We all get like this from time to time and sadly there is no cure but time!

Sending you some

and hoping your dreams come true soon x
