Abnormal pap smear??

My pap smear came back abnormal, they showed me a scale about cancer and said I'm the very bottom..that I have to have another pap smear in 12 months? They mentioned hpv but she said I might not have it all. I don't understand my baby will be here around June 12th, so my next pap smear is after I have the baby? They said I could delivery naturally also. I just don't understand. Also awhile back I had BV which never really went away I still have it off and on could that cause abnormal pap smear? I Just don't understand I'm almost 21 weeks. The last time I was with my ******* husband was 2 yrs ago and I've been fine besides the bv issue  and my new partner is also fine.

No I didnt have sex...but I've been to the er multiple times for bv and I've had vaginal exams and pap smears and they all showed normal except this last one they said I had bv really bad and I've had it off and on it never fully goes away and now my pap was abnormal at my 17 week one and I'm now almost 21 weeks. I have to get another pap in 12 months that's after I have my baby.

Alot of different things can cause an abnormal pap smear and you're supposed to have 1 every year. So 12 months is normal. Hpv usually goes away on its own. And the only reason y they will show concern is because it can cause cervical cancer down the road. At least that's how my doctor explained it
