Extremely EHEALTHy
hey Ladies. I read another Ehealth members
post that stated touching the cervix
before labor could promote changes to
occur. Is a pap smear dangerous to me
right now? I am 29 weeks today. On the day
of my pap smear I will be 32 weeks.
When I first found out I was pregnant I
got the pap, urine, and blood tests done.
All came back normal. But around 14 weeks
I lost my insurance and had to get another
doc. Because of work I couldnt schedule a
seperate appt to get a pap done. My new
doctor didnt push it, she just asked for
my med recs. Well I have been requesting
the recs over and over with no luck. Now
they want to start charging me for them.
So my midwife has decided to do one on her
own since she still doesnt know my pap
results.
should I be concerned?
