Should I have checked?

I had a 3rd grade student come to me and say she was bleeding down there. She stated its what happens to her mommy, so i assumed she started her period and she stated her belly hurt. I asked her all kinds of questions, is it only when you wipe (no)? Is it in your panties( yes)? Did you do #2(no)? I called her mother and let her know of the situation, her mom asked if i investigated it and I said no i didn't feel comfortable with checking her out like that. A week later mom is still upset at me saying I should have checked her out because I am the nurse and a professional. I just did not want to get in trouble without consent because of how the world is these days! Grandma confirmed it must have been from student straining from possible constipation. Now I feel terrible. Should I have checked her out before calling mom?

I agreed, absolutely not!!! :)

mom can be as upset as she wants - in this public school setting, i don't inspect anywhere that the undies rest unless there is some life and limb emergency. A little blood in the undies does not meet that criteria. You called her that was suitable.
