It's almost like a regular checkup, except they only check down below. I'm pretty sure she did a pap, and just made sure my epi was healed and asked how things were. Then renewed my pill prescription

They check to make sure you are healing well, do a PAP and will check your breasts if breastfeeding. They will also ask what, if any, forms of birth control you want to use.
