Abnormal cells smear test

Has anyone experienced having an abnormal smear test result? I’ve been booked in for a colcoscopy and slightly freaking out….

Yes! My very first smear came back with this. The colposcopy is just like the smear but they look a lot more in depth. They will probably put a dye up there to check but more often than not it is all fine and they just monitor you a bit closer x

I had this like 6 years ago and had them removed by burning them away. After that I've been fine and my last smear test (this year) was clear

Ahh I’ve been feeling so anxious since I found out, just automatically thinking the worse😢

Yes, it’s very common. I had high grade abnormal cells (CIN 3) back in 2021 and had to have LLETZ where they basically use a heated thin wire loop to burn the abnormal cells. It was uncomfortable but not painful for me. I had a follow up 6 month later, a smear 6 months after that and now back to screening every 5 years, no issues. I’m now pregnant with no problems.

Yes, my first one was, I had a colposcopy and he could see the damaged cells and so cut them all away for a biopsy (didn't hurt), they came back negative and so I had another check a year later with was all good, had X2 back to back pregnancies and a check as soon as I was 12 weeks post with my second, which was negative again so 5 year checks now!

Is this a bump?

I feel like I am being super stupid here.. I want to say it’s a bump but I’m only 13 weeks (today) with my first baby so surely it’s too soon for me to be showing? I’m super excited at the thought of a bump so I don’t know if I’m just getting excited over bloat or something..

TMI but…..

Im 4 weeks pp from my c-section and I am so horny! I know I can’t have penetration until at least 6 weeks and I don’t plan to before that. I was debating other types of stimulation but I am also terrified that any kind will hurt soo badly and I don’t want to mess up my recovery. Anyone else have this problem? What did you do to find relief?

Blood thinning injections.

I’m gutted … so I left hospital yesterday and they’ve prescribed me 6 weeks of clexane! 6 weeks! I know it’s for a reason but seems so unfair. She also said I have to keep my stockings on that long too!

Anyone else doing the same?

Do you need certain gel for a doppler machine?

Snagged an amazing deal on Vinted and got a doppler for £3, just wondering if you need certain gel for it?

Birthdays

Hey!
My little boy is going to be 2 in August. I’m really stuck on whether to throw him a party or not. Any ideas? We’ve got quite a big family so a party is ideal as at least everyone can see him but then I also think that they could make the effort and try and see him without a party🙈😂 (a lot of the family don’t really bother to see him unless we make plans with them)..

Please help- thank you!’
