This morning I accidentally went too far and hit my cervix with a swab. It hurt. My midwife says it's unlikely to cause any damage. I am still worried. Has anyone else done this before during pregnancy?
** MY GP ASKED ME TO DO A SWAB FOR A YEAST INFECTION ** I wouldn't be sticking anything up me without a medical reason.

Answer

Why are you sticking swabs uo your vagina????

Answer

No? You shouldn't be messing with your cervix during pregnancy, or ever really. Very unnecessary

Answer

Why didnt your doctor do the swab?

Answer

You shouldn't be using any swabs.

Answer

I wouldn’t be sticking things up there, is there a reason you’re swabbing your vagina?

Answer

…. Why are you swabbing your vagina.

Answer

You should be fine. As long as you weren't swabbing IN your cervix and punctured the amniotic sac, just jabbing your cervix (not the cervical os) should be fine.

Answer

unless u stuck the swab inside of your cervix which would be pretty hard to do without some considerable amount of force ur fine its probably the same as having sex and hitting ur cervix
