I had horrible experience after my first baby, I can't even write it down without getting very upset but basically I had a retained placenta and was sent to theatre to have it manually removed, I wasn't told anything about what was happening and only know what happened because the midwife in my second pregnancy helped me, anyway I was given way too much pain relief (without consent) and then an epidural after giving birth and wheeled to theatre to have placenta manually removed, ten men were stood in the room waiting, nine of which were students and after doctor said a few a words they all took turns to fish around inside me, I tried asking them to stop, I was a sobbing mess and couldn't move but they carried on, I passed out at the seventh students turn.
I developed an infection, was very poorly and had to stay in hospital for a week.
Woke up throbbing inside me, felt humiliated and ashamed and it's had a lasting impact on me. This was 20 years ago now and I'm sad to see so many women and their right to consent is being ignored by not only medical staff but also other women.
What happened to me still impacts on me now, smears are terrifying to me to the point I'm that anxious I'm either puking in the waiting room or in the room itself. I'd avoided getting something looked at because I was that scared about being knocked out. Majority of nhs staff are brilliant and under appreciated, but this thread shows that even now, a woman's bodily autonomy isn't respected my not only some medical staff but other women too.
I hope the rest of your pregnancy goes smoothly and your baby is with you soon, what happened to you was wrong and I'm sorry.
