    You reallllly shouldn't be embarassed about asking your doctor anything - he / she will be peering UP your 'hoo haa' in a few months, so asking a question about a pain in your cervix is nothing. I agree with others who say to keep a list - i have a list on my iPhone that I keep adding to in the month between appointments... Even silly little things, like I've noticed that my temperature is a full degree elevated, and has been for 2 months. I know it's probably normal, but it's always best to get some reassurance
