Totally personal question ... cuz that's just how I am!

yes to both!

and I just sit there and wait, but I know I do not look non chalant. I have an awesome doctor and I think he was really worried for me last time cause my heart rate was insane....lol! (it normally runs really high anyways..) but I am pretty sure I just look like a moron sitting there. lol

 

lol i leave my socks on and shove my knickers under the bed,its the only time i ever wear a skirt and i hate it when the nurse gets her diagram out and shows me what she is gonna do while im lieing on the bed with a sheet of paper over me,yes ive had this done since i was 17 so i think i know the procedure by now.i had mine last week and it came back all good so lets hope the same for yours,least mines only 3 yearly so a while to wait now

 

I feel like a wierdo - I always take my socks off! Now I'm convinced that the doctor thinks I'm a freak.

I do hide my underwear though.

 

LOL... I never wear socks and I do hide my underwear. And I get very nervous, even though my doctor is the best and tries to keep my suffering to a minimum.

That reminds me I'm quite late with my check-up this year.

 

Hmmm...I usually go in the summer so no socks, but if I had them they would stay on. And yes for the undies.

 

Its funny that you brought it up because I have an appt on Wednesday. I have to say yes to both though, I have to wear socks and I do hide my underwear and bra, don't know why I hide my bra though.

 

Let me say that I TRY to look non-chalant, but I don't succeed, because the minute she walks in, she says things like, "Let's make this as quick as possible, I know you don't want to be here." But, unlike your doctor Peppermint, mine doesn't try to make the small talk during it, which I am SO happy for.

I had a doctor one time come in (before I moved here) and he was trying to ask me which Survivor I was rooting for. It felt very odd and disconcerting talking about Survivor when he was doing what he was doing.

 

I hide my undies. Usually in the leg of my pants. Don't know why.

I take my socks off. I take any and all opportunity to go barefoot. A girl has to live a little.

 

LOL I dont think the dr really makes small talk, but now that I think about it I realize maybe I try and block all details of it because its so awful. I just now I feel awkward and I wonder what they are thinking and yes, I really shouldn't think too much about this.

 

Yes, I'm risking being fired by sneaking on....but tell me this....am I the only one who has a crush on their doc? Mine is super cute and since he's delivered both of my children, I hold a special place for him in my heart.

 

Ummmm....no crush here. But I do like going to a woman. Does anyone else have this hang up?

 

Mine has an amazing accent...but, she's a woman. I do love to hear her talk though. LOL!!! She talks about stuff the whole time while I'm cringing. I don't know why, but she hurts me more than my last OB/GYN. She may have smaller fingers, but shorter. Not good.

 

You know - I've had women and men do the exam and I find men are more gentle. The man ObGYN I see now is so gentle that I can seriously feel almost nothing.

 

I actually need to find a new doc for that sort of thing. I don't go to my old one anymore (a chick) and our new doc is a dude, and I don't know if I could handle it. I'm generally pretty laid back at that appointment but I think if my doc were a guy I'd feel weeeeeird.

I'm like 3 years behind, as well. Don't tell my doctor.
