1. How many exams did you have during pregnancy & labour?
One during labour - Ob asked if I wanted one to see how far I was. Midwife said I didn't have to if I didn't want.

2. How did you feel about them in pregnancy & labour?
It bloody hurt! I thought I tried to kick Ob - DH says I didn't, but he was ready to!

3. Did your carer explain the procedure to you and why they were doing it? Yes.

4. Did you feel that your carer did too many or more than you would have liked? Did you feel they were justified? Not too many, but I wish I'd listened to the midwife. No wasn't justified

5. Any other thoughts/comments.
Having read up (after the fact) BB and other places, I wouldn't agree to a VE during a future pregnancy or labour unless there was a compelling reason.
