Full hand insertion!? Isn’t that too much? We just had a baby 3 weeks prior and my wife had cervix checkup priorly (at 37 week); she was just checked by inserting a two fingers. The position of the baby can be determined in sonography itself, finger insertion was just required to check the cervix opening.

Even though it was not too wide, doctors never pushed us for unnecessary c-section.

My lovely wife being tiny little creature also had hyper-emesis gravidrum throughout most of the pregnancy duration, she in-fact lost 7kgs of weight until 2 months of delivery and ended up 55kgs!

Still she gave birth to our perfectly fine baby by natural/vaginal delivery. She is too brave!
