    17 Things That Only Happen At The Obstetrician's Office

    Unless you're into medical-themed sex, I guess.

    1. You look forward to getting your feet in those stirrups like you're a world-class jockey.

    2. Weight gain elicits high fives from the nursing staff.

    3. "Loosen up" takes on a totally different meaning.

    4. The doctor may be about to palm your cervix, but you still fold your undies into your pants when you take them off.

    5. You pay someone to stick a camera up your lady business.

    6. Trying to pee in a cup when you can't see the cup should be an Olympic sport.

    7. That is, of course, if you still retain any control over your bladder whatsoever.

    8. It might be the only place on earth you can get baby fever while you're already pregnant.

    9. At some point, you'll probably barf, despite not being there for a sick visit.

    10. You apologize every time for your disco bush, even though you know no one cares.

    11. Your OB is the only doctor who will force-feed you orange drink just to see how much it fucks up your system.

    12. You get to do a vagina puzzle while you wait!

    13. You keep getting bigger, but the gowns don't.

    14. Where else would your spouse stand awkwardly aside while a relative stranger inserts things into your vagina?

    15. Just when you think you've seen it all, they go and take a culture of your asshole.

    16. There may come a time when you will ask your doctor to scrape away the surface of your cervix.

    17. It's cool, though. You'll somehow still want to thank your OB when it's over.
