Question

Is it wrong to opt out of a Pap smear at my appointment today? I just had one in may so it’s been less than a year and I have only ever slept with my husband. I have already had one prenatal apt and one ultrasound everything is healthy and my ovaries are good to go. I REALLY don’t want one. It makes me sick to my stomach just thinking about it. Last time I got one I was pregnant, and right when he did it I started bleeding and I lost my baby. I didn’t stop bleeding for weeks & it was the worst experience of my life. I know it probably wasn’t from the Pap smear but it was very convincing timing. :( help please!

@missheatherbaby, much better all cramping is gone & no bleeding or spotting so far :) I’m sick so that’s not fun but besides that great!

@blgetchell, how are you feeling today?

Brianna Miller · Answer

@missheatherbaby, they were skipping the pap anyway, but still had to get cultures and now I’m very crampy so I’m very nervous 😩

I had had one in March so when I got pregnant in July I asked and the Dr said I didn't have to do another one. When I was pregnant with my first the pap caused me to bleed because the baby was a placenta previa. So with this one I skipped it and now this baby was a previa too. Glad I skipped it.

@worlds.okayest.mom and I agree with u. It's how I found out I had cervical cancer when I was pregnant w my second at the routine pap.

Answer

If u haven't had one while pregnant I would have one just so ur in the clear. But if ur that uncomofrrable don't do it.

Answer

Paps aren't just for STDs they detect cancer. It's your call.

@beemommyof3 @missheatherbaby, thanks, I’m just nervous they’re gonna be mad at the doctors office. They never have been but I brought up not wanting one last apt and it was like they never heard of anyone opting out of something, the nurse was so confused.

Heather · Answer

Also if your going to associate it with losing a baby in the past then I think it’s better to wait until your further along to get a pap.

Answer

No.  You can opt out of whatever you want.

You don’t have to do anything you don’t want to do
