I don't like them either I had to have an internal a couple of weeks ago at the hospital cos I wasnt feeling too good. I felt a bit embarassed and a little uncomfortable but it was over in seconds and not as bad as I thought it would be xx

Plus it's their job x

I hate it too I am terrible for putting my smear test off because of that reason! I was due to have one just as I found out I was pregnant! Thankfully my doc told me to leave it till I have had little one, which I was so relieved to hear!

 

[Lilelephant]

I only ever had one smear cos everytime I book it I get pregnant lol
Had so many internal exams with mc's and early in this pregnancy I will drop my pants and open me legs for anyone now lol

Laura you really do make me laugh! I suppose you do get used to it though if you have to do it a few times!

Thing is, we really shouldn't let it bother us as they've seen it all but we do! I remember when I was having Jay, the doc said to me 'good god, it looks like a dentist has been down here' Thanks for that! Made me feel so much better

 

[Lilelephant]

Lol how rude of that doctor!

Sorry to ask a stupid question, but why does it start at 36 weeks? I can only ever remember having had internal examinations when I was actually in labour... Or have I just chosen to forget the earlier ones?

 

[Hemera]

I wouldn't worry too much - I'm 40 weeks now and still not had an internal so if everything goes smoothly you won't need one until its sweep or birthing time.

 

[suzzi]

i agree with the above ladies.

ive had one internal and that was a scan due to low placenta, but if alls ok you wont have one until labour x x

try not to worry x x

and lilmoomin what did the doctor mean?? lol
