[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I had my first pelvic exam at my pcp's office, one of the nurse practioners did it. But before they did anything they had a filmstrip for me to watch in one of those handheld toy viewers. The strip went over all the body parts involved and exactly what would happen in the exam.
Also, they asked if I wanted to have a woman do the exam or the doctor and I picked a woman.
Chuckles at Tep's joke.
Bless you, my child.
Teppy, I totally got your Sonny Corleone joke and laughed, too. I think a person has to have read the book to get it.
Got it.
My precocious Mafia fascination probably messed me up about sex.
Cash, the sex of the ped shouldn't be an issue until the kids are much older (if even then). With insurance and such, who knows if you will have the same doc at that time. I vote for sticking with the one you know.
Both my kids still see the same doc. She saw CJ through his hernia and enlarged testicles and he never complained. He is 9...
I never had a pediatrician for the kids. We all go to the same doctor.
edit to note that my ob/gyn did the initial baby checkups and snipping of the boy parts, after that it was the family doc
30-35 if not sexually active? That seems late to me.
This says within 3 years of sexual activity or 21.
Huh. Weird. I know I didn't make up the numbers. And I specifically remember the PA who did my first breast exam (and said skipping the pap was ok - and I was over 21) saying something to the effect that you can skip the pap, but even nuns get breast cancer.
Maybe the little cancer buggies are more prevalent in LA than SD? No, I got nothin' (except, possibly, bad medical info).
Laughed at the joke. Yeah, no way you can get it without having read the book.

Yup, I grew up with our family GP, who was older than dirt and who basically just handed out antibiotics like they were M&M's.
I hate to whinge but the past few days I have been HURTING LIKE HELL in the lower pelvis--definitely round ligament pain due to baby stretching but added into the sciatica and it just plain old fucking hurts to move most of the time.
