Hiya! It’s usually a long probe they put jelly and a condom on it and it’s quite thin, I have had several and have never found them to be that uncomfortable, obviously it’s not a comfortable feeling but also not painful etc, it always very calm and relaxed environment also x

@Olivia thank you, it’s just that i’m 8 weeks postpartum and i had an episiotomy so i haven’t had anything up there yet lol so just abit worried that’s all xx

Ahh okay! I’d say you’ll be absolutely fine 8 weeks postpartum! The area should be healed enough for this to not feel painful, the probe is also very thin not as thick as some people think! X

@Olivia thank you so much x

That’s okay lovely! I hope all goes well for you 🫶 xx

I have had quite a few of these also and never had any pain at all. There's nothing to worry about x

I’ve had a few and they have been fine, a tad uncomfortable upon insertion but not painful. I always find I get mild cramps afterwards but I think that’s just where it presses against once inside x

I promise you it is smaller than the thing that got you pregnant 😂 the stick is really long but they only insert a couple inches. You don’t really feel it much tbh but you’re in full control when you’re in that appointment if you need to stop or take a break let the sonographer know then they will stop then and there x

@Olivia so i definitely will be able to drive after lol x
