[quote=Anonymous]A cervical check by itself shouldn't be that painful. I think some painful cervical checks are the provider sneaking in a membrane sweep without asking/informing. I've had uncomfortable checks when the cervix was still very high and the midwife really had to press on my perineum to get into the neighborhood but it wasn't contraction painful. It's not uncommon for women to have excess pain when they are freaked out and of course it is made worse by impatient providers. OP if you only want two kids an elective C is perfectly reasonable instead of trying to VBAC. If the reason for your first C section was a failed induction that lowers your chance of a successful VBAC. [/quote]
