    If you had a c section they check the incision, blood pressure, and weight. I had a 2 week and 6 week pp check up. Why do you have a two week one? Idk what they do for women who had vaginal births.

    @lae3 its postpartum. After the baby is born.
  • After the baby is born, usually vaginal births will have just a 6 week checkup. C-sections will be to check incisions and take out stitches/staples then the regular 6 week checkup.
  • @maymommy11 i know what postpartum means but thanks for the clarification.. i never had a 2wk chk up but my babies did.. so mabey this is your deppartment.. if she had a csec.. lol
  • @lae3 I didnt mean to be rude if it sounded that way. Sorry.lol..
  • @maymommy11 i had a vaginal birth i dont know why i have a 2 week one.
  • I've had all (5) vaginal births and never until this baby (#5) had a 2 week post partum. But all my doctor did was ask how I was doing, how my bleeding is, and if nursing how that was going too. Asked me about birth control and if I had any questions myself. And then said he'll see me in 4 weeks for my final check up & pap smear. Oh yay for that, NOT! But thats all my 2 week check up concluded of.
  • I never had 2week check either with 3 vaginal births but in australia midwife visits for 5 days after u return home maybe thats y
  • Maybe different drs do it differntly? Idk but its prob what @melinda326 said good luck tho :)
  • I had a 1 week pp one for my tubal incision check. And my 6w was friday.

  • @hupe23_1 might it be because i got stiches?
  • Mines checked my blood pressure and weight. It was mainly to check if my stitches were healing correctly and to discuss birth control.
