Cervix irritation?
I had a touch of post-O spotting (unusual but not unheard of for me), and someone elsewhere said that she thinks it is due to me checking my cervix; specifically, that checking it caused irritation which made it bleed. In eight months of FAM I don't believe I've ever caused bleeding; my spotting patterns are highly regular, and I believe that if checking cervical position caused bleeding my spotting would be more erratic. She is not someone experienced with FAM -- in fact she was SHOCKED when I said that I check my own cervix, and said that it "sounds like it hurts" and "gives her the willies". So I don't give her much credence, but I would like to know if checking your cervix could cause bleeding.
