TMI . . .

Oh yea and just one more thing to stress me out...When checking cervical position today I felt a big bump (I can't see it, but I would describe the way it feels as a pimple) on my cervix. I must call the doctor and have it checked into...I am so not ready to get bad news in that "area". I'm hoping it's just irritated from the progesterone as it wasn't there a few days ago and just recently developed...However in my research about why I would get so many false positives on hpts I learned that false positives can be caused by cancers of the female reproductive organs and breast cancer...Well I just had a mammogram and breast ultrasound(s) a year ago (less than a year ago!) -- and a pap done after Zachary was born that came back clear -- I really shouldn't be stressing over what it could be...I am avoiding calling to make an appointment...I'd rather just wait till I get my bfp and then call and have the pap done then ...

When it rains it seems it pours sometimes ... I am strong and will make it through this thanks to my friends. I just wish I knew what it was from without having to call the doctor...I hate for them to tell me to hold off on TTC until the results come in...and I hate to hear the results unless of course the result is "nothing to worry about"...I also read that these can be caused by pregnancy (oh, please, let that be the case) and peri-menopause (which I'm sure I'm in!)...

So keep your fingers crossed and pray that it's just an irritation and that it will go away...

Hiya.

I'm sure the "pimple" isn't anything serious, but I'm not a doctor. Quit worrying! Or at least try. Looks who's talking. I hope things are going better for you today.

Tracy - It is very common to have a "pimple" type bump on your cervix. It is called a Nabothian Cyst. They are harmless. (info is from "Taking Charge of your Fertility") I would still get it checked out, just to be safe, but I am sure you have nothing to worry about :)
