    No fucking shit lol. After I gave birth I asked my OB to check my stitches at my checkup and they said „Should be okay“ and left the room. I had three different tears. They just… ended the appointment lol. Turns out it wasn’t okay but I had to go to a walk in clinic to find that out because my actual doctor didn’t give a shit.

    Now if my OB at my routine postpartum checkup won’t even peep at my vagina I am inclined to believe that everyone else’s doctor acts the same way. The baby is no longer inside you, you aren’t important anymore. Good luck.

    You are effectively abandoned post hospital discharge and in between your 6 week check up with your OB. You’re back in the general system (seeing your GP who has no idea on how the birth went etc or going to ER if its that bad)

    I got postpartum thyroiditis and postpartum pre eclampsia (that we managed to catch fast) within the first 10 weeks. I was constantly being ping ponged between medical professionals.

    I would say to anyone who is due to give birth to have a blood pressure monitor at home and use it daily for at least the first 2-3 weeks. Some people’s immune systems just go nuts afterwards and their needs to be much better support in place.

    This also contributes to the question- why aren’t more people having kids because it’s defintely given me pause for another.

  3. This is why I use a midwife. Oed home visits for 1-2 weeks with phone checkups in between, then every 2 weeks in office until 6 weeks. Discharge IF you’re ready. Plus they’re on call for you during that time.

    Honestly, I am not surprised. Mine OBGYN asked at the day of the C-section where he should cut because he had just come back from parental leave and didn’t bother to read or get report from the doctor who had taken over for him during that time. Luckily, he had the sense of calling a more senior physician to help him with the delivery. Healthcare in Ontario has become hopes and prayers at this point. 😔
