Vaginal swab touched cervix - 10 weeks pregnant - worried

Hello,

Today I went to do a self-administered vaginal swab. When I inserted I felt a weird nerve pain - not huge but I realised I must have touched my cervix. To check as I didn't feel I had gone in far enough I gently pushed again and could not go further.

I am now very very worried that I pushed the swab directly into my cervix. My cervix has recently been positioned so it's pointing directly down. I'm so scared I will have caused dilation or a miscarriage. I am 10 weeks pregnant

Any reassurence would be much appreciated
Thank you in advance!
