Hahaha girl, ang sakit talaga ng IE no! A few of us moms were talking about this din, at alam mo, kahit medyo uncomfortable, it's actually good na nag-check ang OB mo para makita kung ready na ang cervix mo, at yung gamot na binigay niya to soften the cervix, yan ang tumutulong talaga sa labor to progress, so it's worth it kahit nakakatakot muna. First time kasi talaga, walang alam, pero ngayon na you know what to expect, kaya mo na yan next time kung may IE ulit! Good luck sa pagbubuntis, momsh!
