DD was with me only because DF was working, i also was due for a pap smear, doc really just just checked that my uterus was where it should be, which i was fine with until i started bleeding again(stopped at four weeks post partum) i guess all the pushing and poking dislodged some.
I didnt have stiches from my vaginal birth but i guess if you do they'll be checking to see if that has healed nicely.
"clean up"down there if u want, but as i say to friends who refuse to have pap smears and things of that sort, they've seen it all before and dont really care!
