Thanks :) and sorry for hijacking your question. Hope you see some results from it soon. These last few weeks waiting are aweful! I'm so done with pregnancy! Good luck x

It was quite uncomfortable but I wouldn't describe it as painful, but I suppose it depends on your pain threshold. I was nervous before hand as I haven't had a vaginal examination before but it isn't half as bad as I imagined, I just focused on the fact it may bring me closer to meeting my daughter. Don't worry about it :) x

Is it sore? I might be getting one next appointment and not really looking forward to it as it sound disgusting and painful or uncomfortable :(
