Sarah Read your response to Lissa and noticed you said you had a wonky cervix, on my first IVF I was I would feel no pain with e/t....they lied..........I was in tears. After a/f showed up we went back for a follow up and was told my cervix was at an angle, so to get to the point, were they aware of your wonky cervix before e/t?? God!! things really get personal on here sorry!?!?! One last thing, Isn't weird how after going through the prodding, probes and test you have no modesty?!?!? Thanks Mags x

I too have a wonky cervix - thought I was the only person in the world who had one - seems not eh !!!! My et too was quite painful and took longer than usual.

hahahaha we all have wonky cervix's together!! They didn't find my until et either - mine's got a bend in it, so they had to get the cervial CLAMP!!! out, attach it and pull like buggery. I too had tears rolling down my cheeks, but didn't cry out loud. Was very difficult to bear and took alot longer than expected. Was all worth the torture though. And yes, the modesty thing is wierd - whever I walk into the clinic now I instinctively wip my knicks off - only jolking!!! I don't mind any of it anymore - am so used to it all. The consultant bloke has a good old chat a joke while he's prodding around. Hubby still gets very red faced though. How are you feeling Nic - what day are you on now?

Hi, Just to let you know I had an awful time when I had my 6 IUI's. 3 out of the 6 go's they couldn't find my cervix and once they put a clamp on it which was so painful!!! When I went for my first IVF I told my consultant and she said they would do a dummy transfer when I was under general anaesthetic having my e/c. I still find e/t uncomfortable but probably because I'm scared stiff that I'm going to end up in pain but no more painful than a smear. Tracey

Thank god I'm not alone. Not that I would wish the wonks on anyone. At least we all know that we are in this together...wonks and all!!! Mags xx

and at least we know that wonks work!! what a strange thing - we must change the subject now! ps - just remembered, mine was not only wonky but extremely long - so long in fact that when he did the scan he decided to measure it!

Just wanted to thank you for this strand which has given me a really good giggle! You really do have to laugh with what we have to go through (and the ridiculous facts they tell us about our bodies!). Keep smiling! Alison (non-wonky cervix but apparently slightly shorter than average womb!)
