TMI vent

[bluelikejazz]

Not sure there is really such a thing as TMI on this board, but thought I'd be safe anyway...

Of course my hemorrhoid would flare up the night before my GBS test when it had mostly been calmed for the last two months. Ugh.

Oh well, they've seen it all, right? This isn't new territory for the OB? Someone tell me it will be fine.

I can see why this would be annoying and/or embarrassing, but with all the crap (maybe literally?) and jazz they see when you are actually birthing el bebe, I would think this would be NBD.

Happened to me too

You're absolutely right. This is exactly what I needed to hear. I told DH I didn't care one bit about pooping whike pushing because I knew almost everyone did, and I wouldn't be special. So this shouldn't be a big deal either.

Thanks!

Mine did too!!

I DGAF. Maybe because I've done this all before but I'm really don't care what my doc sees at this point. By the time I left the hospital with DS I can't tell you how many people saw my lady bits and boobies in all their glory.

Same here. I will say that part of the swab was more painful this time because she had to move some stuff around. How's that for tmi

Yeah.  This was the worst part.  The Dr. was doing the swab - the vaginal part went fine, then he stabbed a few of my hemorrhoids looking for the other opening.  OUCH! 

He also commented on how bad they were   I think I may have to make a trip to the proctologist (?) after I heal from delivery and have these suckers checked out. 

But - GBS test done and I'm officially to weekly appts!
