Hi girls,
Well i have been having bleeds the last few weeks so have been in and outta hospital. Yesterday i had another one and they did a speculum exam to check my cervix. Midwife said it wud be like a smear test.
It was the MOST PAINFUL thing ever! From the minute she put it in it was excruciating. I could barely breath. Everything just felt so swollen. I had an internal ultrasound a dew weeks ago and that felt similar but not so bad. I said it to the midwives and they said it shouldnt feel that bad and ask doc. So i asked doc and i think she thought i was exaggerating and said it wud be uncomfortable.
Anyway i am now dreading labour. I usually have a high pain threshold but i wont be able for that level of pain!
Has anyone else found these exams this painful? Cud the bleeds be making it so sore?
