I didn't realize the recommendation had changed from one year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/annual-exam-after-childbirth#post-2597953 Wed, 03 Aug 2016 16:31:42 +0000 tiramisu 2597953@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had my annual exam around 2 months postpartum. It was one year from my previous annual/pap. I think my OB tries to keep people on their regular schedule. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/annual-exam-after-childbirth#post-2597950 Wed, 03 Aug 2016 16:27:19 +0000 youboots 2597950@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Based on the fact that I have the same partner- they said I only need to come in every couple years. And keep giving me birth control. I had a six week exam. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/annual-exam-after-childbirth#post-2597938 Wed, 03 Aug 2016 16:10:34 +0000 DesertDreams88 2597938@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They did a Pap at my 6-week postpartum, so I would typically get a Pap done a year later. I need yearly paps though, I believe the recommendation has changed for the general populace. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/annual-exam-after-childbirth#post-2597927 Wed, 03 Aug 2016 15:52:06 +0000 catlady 2597927@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I ended up going in only 12 weeks or so after LO was born, mostly because I hadn't had a PCP up until that point and I wanted to make sure I had one since I knew that I'd probably get sick with a newborn. In retrospect, it was weird to go in so soon after my post-partum check-up but I was so used to doctors visits at that point that I didn't really even think about it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/annual-exam-after-childbirth#post-2597917 Wed, 03 Aug 2016 15:29:01 +0000 psw27 2597917@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I went to my 6 week and then I'm pretty sure I just went on my usual schedule, which is usually in February so it ended up like 7 months PP I think. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/annual-exam-after-childbirth#post-2597905 Wed, 03 Aug 2016 15:13:06 +0000 FaithFertility 2597905@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't but was PG again sooo..... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/annual-exam-after-childbirth#post-2597903 Wed, 03 Aug 2016 15:11:18 +0000 MrsKRB 2597903@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They had me schedule an appt 3-4 months after my 6 week pp visit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/annual-exam-after-childbirth#post-2597902 Wed, 03 Aug 2016 15:10:40 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2597902@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Im scheduled for one next month, so 4/5 mos post partum.

One year later? I'm 13 months postpartum and it just occurred to me that maybe I need to schedule an exam but I will be finding a new office so I figured I'd ask beds first. </p>
