5 week checkup? What to expect?

Question

I have my 5 week check up on Friday and I'm really nervous as to what to expect. I've heard so many different things. I've heard they do Pap smears and some said they don't, im just kinda nervous cause I'm still really sore around my vagina hole😩

Answer

If you mean post partum, I didn't have a pap then. My checkup was 6 weeks out, they basically asked how I was feeling, asked about bleeding, and looked at my stitches to see how things were healing. They scheduled me to come back for a pap 4 months after I had my baby, but every doctor is different.

If you were referring to a 5 week check, as in you are 5 weeks along, that also depends on the doctor. Mine didn't want to do a pap unless I haven't had one within a year of being pregnant. I didn't need a pap with my firstborn, but since my pregnancies are so close together, I had to have one completed at my 5 week exam this go round. Other than that, all I had was a urine test done and blood work, plus all the information on the do's and don't.
