Cervix Question...
Hi
I know I shouldn't have, but when I was in the shower I checked my cervix. I am almost 15 weeks. It isn't high like I thought it should be, and it is VERY open. Is this OK??? I am not bleeding or cramping. But it makes me nervous! Now I wish I had never checked :wall:. When does the CP rise and is the cervix usually shut closed?

Are you sure what you were feeling was your cervix? It shouldn't be open at all.
-
Yeah are you sure it's your cervix? Cause you shouldn't really be even able to reach it..
-
Definately, because I checked it for 12 months while TTC. I thought it was odd that I could still reach it. It is so open I could (but didnt) put a finger in the Os.
:pray:
EDIT: Just wondering, is this serious enough to go and see the Dr? I see my Obs in just over 2 weeks and will be 16 weeks then. I just googled and scared the pants off myself when I kept seeing 'incompetent cervix causing miscarriage'. Oh God why can't anything be easy??? I do feel a bit of pressure on my cervix, but not much.

:hug:
I'd go see a doc now, just to put your mind at ease. Nothing worse than sitting there thinking the worst and freaking out for the next 2 weeks...

Yep go get it checked out. If nothing for the reasurence. The stress won't be good for you or bub anyway. Goodluck hun, i hope its nothing bad.

hey oscar, are you okay? did you get to see your Dr? :pray: everything is fine and it was all a worry over nothing

Aww Tam thanks for asking. I think my cervix is just so soft that it feels open. I have a tiny cyst on my cervix, and sometimes it makes it feel open when it isn't. Thankfully it feels much more closed now (and I won't check it again!!!). But I will ask my Obs about it in a fortnight. :hug:
