Pregnant during a play exam.

Has anyone performed a play exam session on a pregnant woman? How many weeks was she? What precautions are taken?

Had like to read anout it

Sounds like a fun part of playm. Just be sire the doc is up to speed and actually knowledgeable.

Please read my post from about four years ago entitled Pregfetgirl. You may find it interesting. - Thanks.

Although pregnancy isn't a big thing of mine I would enjoy examining a pregnant lady, I'd say in her fourth or fifth month would be ideal

I did this for a couple once quite some time ago. She was right around 9-10 weeks. Complete physical, pap, pelvic capacity assessment....there's not really a lot to be "cautious" of at this stage. Her husband wanted a first hand idea of what happened at her pre-natal exam...and I think he realized that the ultrasound scheduled the next month was not going to entail this kind of detail

Yes. I was working in a birthing center and had to take care of a few patients. One was 7 months. Another was 9 months and due any time. The last one was 4 months.

I would also very much enjoy examining a pregnant woman especially one in the last trimester

Always wanted to examine a pregnant woman, just palpate and auscultate her belly, thorough breast exam, and a long listen to her lungs and heart with a good cardiology stethoscope.

As someone pregnant, I would not be interested in a play exam in-person due to health and safety concerns. Exception would be if the play doc was actually medically qualified.

NOTE: Please don't PM me with questions regarding this. I will not answer.

Steth,

How about also listening to the babies heart, and maybe its lungs as well, through the mother?

I'm a play doctor not a real doctor so there is no way I would consider doing a full examination on a pregnant woman. I always confirm with the woman before we meet that there is no chance that she might be pregnant. Having said that, I guess using the stethoscope on her back and chest and examining her breasts would be acceptable, but nothing below the waist…
