Dammit I can't find my cervix

[beaniesteve]

Seriously - I can't find it. I have tried all sorts of different positions and shoved my longest finger as far as I can and I am not feeling anythig which feels like the tip of my nose.

I can feel sort and squishy things at the side and top front.

Am I just not reaching far enough?

I know my doctor had a problem when I had a smear once - they said I had a small cervix.

Help!

Are you at work? Perhaps one of your colleagues can give you a hand? Or maybe a close friend?

*far up not way up

I shall as the next person to walk in, maybe it will be someone I have a crush on

Good point, Blu. Perhaps chopsticks splinted to your fingers might do the trick, beanie?

My only other advice is to learn to live with it. It really isn't a very useful part of charting, after all. Personally, I am completely resigned that my cervix and I will never be friends - I think of it as I think my kidneys or my spleen: very grateful it's there somewhere, but no need to make its acquaintance.

So you never did Self Exam workshops then, eh, hester?

Mine is massively prominent but then I suppose my torso doesn't really give it much room to hide modestly away.

lol at hester. I spoke to my sister in law and she's never been able to find hers.

Amazingly, MI, I managed to live through the entire 1980s as a radical feminist without hunting down my cervix with a mirror and a torch.

I did superglue locks in sex shops, though - is my cred still intact?

ha ha at hester

still not found it by the way but am reading my way through 'taking charge of your fertility' and hoping it may have some tips...it has enough diagrams

i keep mine in my sock. easy to find there.
