Post natal checks - didn’t get checked? (C-section)

So just had my post natal checks after having a C-section on September 5th. However… they didn’t check my incision, never felt my stomach or anything, all they did the entire appointment (for me) was talk about birth control and breastfeeding. Wondering if anyone else experienced this? Thinking of making another appointment to get this all checked out

This was the same for me in 2021 and I even told them that I still had the infection which I was taking antibiotics for.

My scar wasn’t checked either but I knew it was fine. If you have concerns, contact your health visitor x

Had exactly the same following two elective c-sections. Nothing about the incision, didn’t even ask and like you the focus was birth control and breastfeeding.

If you’re concerned, book another appointment to have it checked. I asked at mine, so they checked it. But if I didn’t ask, they wouldn’t have x

This happened to me today. I didn't have any specific issues but I asked them to check it while I was there and they did but seemed very surprised!

Yes the GP app was very impersonal and quick
