I had a lot of discharge around cervix and was I aware of it? I said not really - not different from usual and surely there is more as mid-cycle and ovulating.

am stressing now it means something sinister. it is not offensive (according to nurse) and I certainly haven't noticed anything untoward...

I do have a vague memory of being in labour with ds and the mw saying I had cervical erosion - could it be that? help - worried.

I got told last time my cervix was a bit hormonal to which I replied "well it goes with the rest of me then"

Ooohhh, let me play..
when i went for my 6-week check-up after ds1 i was due for a smear test too. well the doc did her gubbins and i realised:"hey, she's forgotten to do my smear. result. I've 'got away' with it..as they were usually so "uncomfortable." ( i digress but don't you hate that phrase - usually means hurts like f*)
anyhow, decided to be a grown-up, and tactfully reminded her she was meant to do a smear. "yes, all done," she said cheerily. she took one look at my face and said:"it will tighten up down there, dear." Glad to be at your cervix...
