When my wife and I decided to start a family, we had trouble getting pregnant. Eventually, my wife made an appointment with her ob/gyn to figure out if there was a problem. I can't remember if the office suggested that I come to the appointment, or my wife thought I should be there, or if she just wanted me there. I remember being both nervous and really excited at the possibilities of this appointment.
I sat in the waiting room while she was called back and given an exam. When she was done with that and dressed, she came out and got me and we met with the doctor in her office. She said there was not anything obviously wrong with my wife, and that the next step is that I should have my sperm tested and possibly a physical exam to check me out. She said that if I didn't have a doctor to go to that she could examine me as she was trained in both male and female reproductive health. I was so surprised and embarrassed and excited at the thought of this female ob/gyn examining me in her exam room. Oh, the thoughts running through my mind...
We were to use the lab in her office building for the sperm sample testing, so we stopped there on our way out to get the supplies and instructions. I was soooo embarrassed during all of that, but not nearly as embarrassed as I was to drop off my sample. My sample ended up being just fine, so I never got an exam from her or any other doctor.
When we did finally get pregnant, I went with my wife to most of her appointments because we were both really excited about the whole pregnancy. By luck, when we went to the first appointment, my wife happened to be due for her annual. So the doctor went ahead and gave her a complete exam with me sitting in the exam room. I was in heaven and rock hard the entire time. It was a dream come true for this medfet aficionado. My chair faced the exam table at about midpoint, so it wasn't the best view, but I'm not complaining.
For both of my wife's pregnancies, I went to many exams and appointments. The bests were that first one with the complete exam, and multiple ultrasound appointments that included the transvaginal wand. Those were always nice to see.
