I’m just wondering because my baby is just over a month old now and I forgot to book it so by the time I get in I’ll be past 6 weeks anyway. I had absolutely no tearing, no episiotomy, no stitches. I felt fine physically the day after a gave birth. My bleeding stopped fully two weeks ago. I feel fine mentally also and everything is going well. With my older child when I went they didn’t even do an internal exam. It was basically just like “how are you feeling!” “Good.” “Ok.” And then they asked about birth control which I already know I don’t want anyway. Is it really necessary to go for nothing?
