What does an internal examination look like before delivery? Will it hurt?

It feels strange and painful at first, but it gets better later.

I am a new mother. I just gave birth to a baby in March. For the first time I had false contractions, the doctor said that I should do an internal examination to determine whether the condition of the cervix requires hospitalization.

I posed with a confused look on my face. When the doctor stretched out his hand, I felt a burst of pain. It felt like pain, shame, and a bit of swelling. It felt so strange.

I grabbed the doctor's wrist, but felt something was wrong and let go. The doctor also looked confused, and then told me that he just felt uncomfortable if he held on. Ten days later, contractions really came, and I was hospitalized to have my cervix opened and entered the delivery room.

Believe me, every second I was in the delivery room, I wanted to call the doctor to come over and do a sore internal examination to see when I could give birth to this giant baby. The internal examination at this time is like scratching an itch compared to the pain of uterine contractions. The doctor will also give you an internal examination to show that your labor is progressing and there is hope for giving birth to a baby.
