OT - *GROSS GYNOCOLOGIST DETAILS*

[Guest guest]

Sorry to hear about this Jacquie.

I'm sure this is very little consolation, but I can vouch for the fact

that people in this " business " get so used to blood and bodily fluids

that we don't even think of it as gross anymore.

It will be much harder on you I assure you. For him it's just another

day at the office.

Well, I know you had a C-section, but I assure you the blood isn't

really any different then at a birth, and there is a lot more of it at a

birth.

This happens too.

Don't ask me for stories. :-D

Trust me, as a member of the medical community, after all the other

nasty stuff they had to go through to get their medical degree,

menstrual blood is a piece of cake..its all anatomy.

And probably have had poop on their face more than once!

hahahaha, it's funny you say that. when i was in labor with kailey, i had to go

to the bathroom REALLY bad. i tried to get up and go, but of course no one would

let me. it made it hard to push the baby out without pushing the poop out too,

but i was determined not to let that happen. what's funny is that all the drs

and nurses and everything were like, " don't worry about it, you wouldn't be the

first one " . of course, i held it and then went like an hour after she was born,

but i'll never forget that everyone was actually telling me to go on the labor

table. my point is, don't feel bad for the guy. i'm sure he's seen FAR worse

than someone's period blood. if he didn't want to be in that business, he

wouldn't be. it'll be ok

I'm just so grossed out.

Went to the gyn this morning because I have an IUD that needs to come

out. Problem is, the damn string they use to catch and remove the damn

thing is MISSING. It's supposed to be out of the cervix, but mine

isn't. The IUD is in perfect position, though, so I'm not in any danger

of physical distress.

So he did an internal, verified that yes, the string is missing, and

told me there are two things to be done. The FINAL step is for me to go

into hospital for day surgery, where they'll put me under general

anesthetic, dilate the cervix, and remove the IUD. OK, that's

find...BUT BEFORE WE DO THAT, I have to come in at the end of the month,

*during my period*, when the cervix is slightly dilated and he may be

able to fish around and find the fucking string and get it out in the

office.

That is GROSS!!!!! ICK! YUCK! BLEAGH!

I ask you: what man in his right mind would become a

gynocologist??????????

I am COMPLETELY sickened by this. It feels SO wrong. ICK.

the talking portion of the visit making sure his desk things were in

their exact and proper places. And who is glad to know about OCD, and

not take that personally. LOL

Jacquie,

I'm sure I can be calmer about this since it's you and not me who has to go

through it, but the " waste product " is just teeny tiny little unfertilized

eggs. It's nothing like poop. I promise.

No how. No way. I don't care what you use, but if you don't use

something they wouldn't be touching me. Babies I can do. Anything

else. No way. Not happening in this lifetime.

You must have an incredibly high pain threshold and nerves of steel

girl!
