You would think after multiple annual appointments and now late into my second pregnancy it would get easier... I get soo nervous!
-
What are you nervous about?
I'm never excited to have an annual exam done, but it takes a few minutes and then it's over with. I'm not nervous, just not completely thrilled with the exam.
-
I don't' get too nervous, but I did last week at my annual when it was a different doctor. Mine got into a car accident on the way into work so another one did it, and that threw me for a curveball!
-
Not nervous so much as anxious. I don't particularly enjoy the exam, so I dread it like going to the dentist.
-
@Mrs. Jump Rope: I think its just the fact that someone is down in your business... I know they see it all the time but ....ugh! However I am a really nervous/shy person anyway so that doesn't help!
-
A little. Never will like having things stuck up my lady parts
-
I don't get nervous but I just get weirded out thinking about where her head is (during my annual) so I just talk a lot. Weird is that labor I didn't feel weird at all about her being all up in my space.
-
I get anxious...but I'm a high strung person to begin with. I just get anxious over the exam...which I know is going to suck. Cause it always sucks lol
-
No. It doesn't bother me.
-
Not really but then again i get a brazilian every 4 weeks so i have no anxiety about someone being up in that area!!
-
I don't particularly look forward to the exam process, but I have had enough poking and prodding and examining in that area by this point that I no longer get anxious. I get WAY more nervous about going to the dentist!
-
@mrsrain: right there with you! I'd choose a lady bit exam over the dentist any day!
-
I totally do, especially last time, my new doctor started having a conversation with me while my legs were still wide open! It was pretty awkward. I just try to tell myself, they do this ten times a day.
-
Nope - I love her so much! she is actually a GP (family practice), but does GYN type stuff and even prenatal and L&D. AND she is my son's doctor - we totally lucked out with her. I actually enjoy going to see her.
-
I used to get nervous...but after having a dozen or so appointments since the beginning of the year (and during one of them I had four different people up in my business! nurse, sonographer, doctor, and medical student) it's sort of become routine to me now.
-
Nope.
-
Nope!
-
I did when I was younger, but I've gotten used to it now.
-
No. I'm never nervous to go to the doctor unless I have some reason (like I am having a serious problem and I am worried what the cause is or I'm about to be diagnosed or something).
-
I mostly get anxious with stuff like pelvic checks.
-
i do, i get anxious for most dr. appts
-
I get a little wave of anxiety before any drs appointment. I think it's because I don't really feel in control of the situation.
