Cervix Check

It is necessary to do the cervix check to know how far you've dilated. No way to know unless gynae does it, even when you're in labour gynae will keep checking your cervix. Yes, it's uncomfortable but not too painful. Contractions is far more painful than that. What I usually did is grab hold of the side of the bed very tight but don't forget to breathe in. It's just for a minute or two process.
