36w appt!

Just got back from my appointment. Baby is head down! Woohoo! Let's hope he stays that way! I'm not dilated at all, and that's good with me. The strep B test wasn't exactly comfortable, but the internal was fine. :) I also scheduled all of the rest of my appointments! Holy Moly!!

  • @sparklingdiamond - It's not that it was bad, it just wasn't comfortable.  I'm glad she warned me ahead of time about the where all the Q-Tip swabs go.

  • Doctors must do things different, because the strep B test wasn't even remotely uncomfortable for me. She just gently swiped the outer region "down there." No internal.

    Anyways, yay for a good appointment!!

    Did they swipe your butthole? That is the part that made me uncomfortable.  I needed it once when I was in pre-term labour and again 4 weeks later but that time I was allowed to swap myself in the washroom at the midwife office which was lovely.

    I had an internal vaginally as well as another swab internal anally.  Then a swipe down the perineum.  It was uncomfortable because the swab was so dry going in vaginally.

  • Just like @sgautschi, my Dr only swiped the outer region. Nothing went in anywhere or near my butthole. Lol.

    I can't wait to 'meet' your little guy! 

    As for the swabs... I'm not usually squeamish, but I sure hope they don't go near my b-hole. I mean, if they have to so be it but that's not something I'll be looking forward to @-)
