OB frustration postpartum

Kaye • OB/L&D TECH. Second girl due in November. Hoping for a vbac

Let me start by saying my OB was great my entire pregnancy. Or so I thought. Now that I think about it.. maybe he was a bit too laid back and care free. So I had an insanely difficult Delivery with 4th degree tears inside and out front to back. It was a VBAC Delivery. It took two odd or more to stitch me up and I had this AWFUL bulge that they said may or may not disappear. It did for the most part but it’s still a tiny blip down below. Healing was awful. So much pain. But I survived. Fast forward to my2 week and then my 6 week check up ... not once did he check my vagina to see how I was healing. At 10 weeks I told him I had an infection. I just knew it. But he said ‘oh yellow discharge is normal’ and still didn’t Check me. He was pushing me to get the IUD even though I said I didn’t want that. Made me an appointment to get it even though I still said no. So I decided to go to Planned Parenthood to glam birth control I wanted. And I mentioned yellow discharge ... started at 5 weeks PP here I am 13 weeks PP now with no relief. And I have to wear pads there’s so much. She did an exam and said it’s definitely a cervical infection. Ugh. I just wish my OB listened. Or at least looked 😒 luckily I have an antibiotic now. And the birth control I wanted for myself.

Here’s my sweet Zoey. Worth every bit of misery I went through. This was one of her 3 month photos 😍😍
