Who is up to date on their Smear test?

I finally had mine done last week, I have been putting it off for years, It wasn't as bad as I thought! I feel really silly to have put it off for so long.

Just have to wait for the results now!

I'm all up to date on mine. I had one a day or two before I fell pregnant, I think it may have 'helped things along' with ttc! :lol: I remember the nurse saying something about it to be the case anyway.

I had one just after Oscar was born too. After giving birth it didn't seem even remotely as bad as the first time, funny that! :lol:

I dont get these yet because im too young. I definatley agree with all this campaigning that the screening age should be lowered though.

I'm up to date, had it maybe 6 months ago. I always think that I will be worrying about the results but to be honest I pretty much forget about it as soon as I leave! The results dont usually take very long - thank god! x

Im upto date with mine. I wasnt and didnt have one done for 6 years and it come back abnormal, thankfully it was the only one but i was put on 6 monthly tests for 2 years and now im yearly. it was enough to scare me never to miss another smear again as the worry out did the uncomfortable feelings. I do agree tho the age should be lowered x

I have not had one yet, got a letter when i was younger and was terrified to go.
Was supposed to have one after lacey was born, i asked at my 6 week check up and the doc said it was too early to have one after having a baby and to wait on a letter, im still waiting and she will be 1 soon, think they have forgotten so i better get onto them, thanks for the reminder, lol xxx

Up to date here.
It's ridiculous that you have to be 25 in England when you only have to be 20 everywhere else in the UK! I had my first at my 6 week check after Elijah when I was 23 as she was born in Wales. I moved to Oxfordshire when I was 19, so I missed out on getting one earlier.
