    Hi,

    I'm just wondering has anyone else been in this situation.

    My baby was born 7 months ago and I suffered a third degree tear. I was referred by my hospital to Holles Street. My appointment is coming up next week. I'm just wondering what to expect will they just talk to me or will they examine me?

    I'm just a bit scared about going to this appointment.

    Thank you.

    They will probably talk to you about what symptoms you may still be suffering (Pain/tenderness/incontinence/painful intercourse etc...) and also probably examine you too. This way they will be able to come up with a plan of care to help alleviate and hopefully resolve any problems down there.
