Slightly stupid question

I have my first smear test later on this week, 3 months pp and the memories of losing every bit of dignity I had are still pretty fresh so I’m not too worried about it BUT I am anxious about any pain? I know it will be nothing comparable to childbirth but am I right in thinking that because the cervix is soft/open it shouldn’t really hurt?

I have quite a bit of PTSD of the midwife putting a prostin tablet in my cervix to induce labour, she was extremely rough in that she just shoved her fingers in rather than going slowly and frankly very rude about it when I flinched away. (She grabbed my leg quite roughly and said to keep still otherwise she would hurt me). It’s causing issues with my sex life as I have flash backs if he uses his hands so for that reason I’m slightly nervous about my smear 🙁

Update - thank you ladies for your support and kind words. The nurse that did my smear was really really lovely and it was as uncomfortable as I anticipated but overall not as bad as I worked myself up for it to be xxx
