Is there any risk having a short speculum inserted??

Sorry can't help you there. I haven't had an internal at all during this pregnancy (nor during any of my unsuccessful ones.

Hi Dianna
It is completly safe when done by someone who knows what they are doing.

thanks - it didn't hurt when done and it was very quick - the doctor was confident with what she was doing - also I went and had an US shortly after and the Cervix has been noted as closed - so I'm assuming that would minimise any risk - goodness me - I hope this anxiety subsides - otherwise I'm gonna be a nervous wreck for the next 26weeks
