For all my rectal temperature procedures, I was always undressed to my underwear-shorts, and laying on my tummy with my arms at my side. Whoever took my rectal temperature always told to keep my head turned and look at the animal paintings and pictures on the wall. At this time, I would then feel their fingers reaching into the waistband of my underwear-shorts. From there, they would tell me to raise my hips up for them. Then they would then lower my underwear-shorts down my waist, over my bottomcheeks, and down my legs to below my knees. At this time, my bottom was fully exposed for the rectal temperature procedure. After this, I was told to layback down on my tummy and keep looking at the animal paintings and pictures on the wall. This was always done by my mom, all my older sisters, several of mom's neighbor lady friends, all the nurses at the clinic, all of my older sister's friends and their moms.
There were several times when my underwear-shorts were completely removed. One incident happened with my oldest sister when it was her turn to take my rectal temperature while my mom, and all my other older sisters were watching her. While my oldest sister was lowering my underwear-shorts to below my knees, she noticed the elastic waistband was worn-out. She said it would be easier for her to completely remove them, and less of a bother or stress for me while I was laying on my tummy while she took my rectal temperature. She then raised my legs and lowered my underwear-shorts to my feet and off. At this time, my bottom was fully exposed for the rectal temperature procedure. While my older sister stood over my naked body, she folded the underwear, and said she would get me a new pair after she finished taking my rectal temperature.
While my older sister was taking my rectal temperature, it did not feel any different than if my underwear-shorts had been left on and below my knees. During my other rectal temperature checks, I don't remember feeling my underwear-shorts touching me once they were lowered to below my knees. After my oldest sister was done taking my rectal temperature, all my other older sisters, said they wanted to practice completely removing my underwear-shorts like my oldest sister did. When mom heard this, she agreed and said it was a good learning lesson for everyone and said it would be a good idea to practice this for the future. She said it would be a good method for all my older sisters to follow when they have their own children and need to take their rectal temperature.
