Kinda freaked out

[jewelsb]

So I have been having some bad shooting pains tonight in my cervix so I decided to check if I'm dielated or what. Anyway I checked when I took a shower just now and found my cervix right inside the opening of my vagina... Is it supposed to be that low!!?!? Its not dielated but really freaks me out that its so low and makes me not want to have sex with dh one bit! Does anyone know if this is normal?

it could be slightly prolapsed?

 

[jewelsb]

Ehh that doesn't sound good. What's that mean?

Do you normally check yourself? The first thing that came to my mind was that you were standing up? Is it a different feeling laying down?

 

[jewelsb]

Ya i was standing... no i havnt checked myself since we were trying to conceive. Is it different if i check while laying down? I cant find any info online about a low cervix so im guessing i will probably have to wait til Wednesday to ask my doctor

I'd call your doctor if I were you.

cervix moves depending on the bubbas head i got told before or in labour the cervix has to move to the front for the bubby to come out but it may seem long depending how effaced u are. my MW said the cervix starts the length of a carrot and by the time its fully effaced its the size of a polo mint hope that helps x

The shooting pains are normal as all the blood in our system make the cervix nerves work overtime.

Not too sure about the low cervix though? Id ring your Dr or MW

this is something im stuck on aswell
i know what my cervix felt like pre preg but didnt check until a few weeks ago

when i feel inside, i cant feel a thing other than lo's head...but if i get the mirror and look at it, theres loads of inside tissue right on the opening of my lady bits???

I wondered if this was my cervix? havent got a clue ...

Are you sure this is your cervix??? Because I had this too. Pre-pregnancy and still now. I first noticed it when I was shaving on my first pregnancy. Then I miscarried, I thought it would go away.. but it stayed.. It's around when I have sex but OH says it doesn't feel any different. I was so worried I showed my Mum and she said it's perfectly normal. I still have it now, and it doesn't cause any problems. I also had a vaginal scan when I miscarried and the docs said nothing about it so I don't think it's anything to worry about!!

But if you do see your doc and he/she says anything, please could you update this thread? As I'd like to know what another doc thinks
