Who takes your rectal temperature?

Until age 10 it was my mother. The cold mercury thermometer penetrated my anus. I really hated it - back then. Rectal temperature measurement probably started my interest in MedFet.

Growing up it was always Mom. Usually across her lap in her bedroom with Vaseline and the old fashioned glass mercury thermometer.

Most of the time i do it myself but if someone is around that does not mind looking at my butt i let them do it.

I do wish I had someone to

I do it myself.

I do it myself, too.

I've never checked my own temperature rectaly. Recently had a great examination where my rectal temperature was taken quite a few times, each reading was compared for an average.

I usually measure my temperature alone

I take it myself, or a friend helps me.

A nurse in the health department. I know that everytime my rectal temperature is being taking in my rectum the nurse 8old me that I'm not the only adult that gets uncomfortable during a rectal temperature.

Myself

I’ve never had the guts to put something in my own rectum.

We also only have recital thermometers.

So I’m like ‘crap I need to ask someone to put something in my butt’

I hated it at first but my friends and family were very supportive.

The first time I was away from my mother (she usually takes my rectal temperature)

I looked flushed and my boyfriend tells me I should go take my temperature as he hands me the rectal thermometer. He left the house to go shopping before I could explain. So I shyly ask my closest friend James for help. It went something like...

“Hey... James...”

“Hey Min.”

“So Ethan wants me to take my temperature... and I don’t have the guts to stick something up my ass so...”

“Oh no, I’ll help you. Not a problem... go strip and lay down on your bed and I’ll be there in a second.”

Those words made me heart sink. So I take of all my clothes and lay on my back with my knees to my chest and my legs spread. The way my mother had always done it.

James comes in with the KY and thermometer and takes a look at me before walking over and sitting me up.

“See Min, That’s the position for infants and young children.. didnt your mom ever change things up?” He had enemas and rectal temps as a kid too.

“No..”

He had me lay on my stomach with my right leg up to my stomach.

“This is much more relaxing and comfortable for the recipient...” He explained as he lubed up the thermometer and took a dollop and his finger, rubbing it into my rosebud.

“I’m so sorry about this...”

“Don’t be, I don’t mind, we’re friends...”

He slipped it into my anus and held it in for about five minutes, resting his other hand on my cheeks. He finally pulled it out.

“You do have a bit of a temperature, Min. Shall I suppress it with a suppository?” He joked, thinking I was probably turned on by this shit. Also he could have been serious since we had the same types of suppository moms..

Usually my husband takes my temperature twice just to make sure the reading is consistent. Privately, I think he gets a bit of a pleasure out of taking my temperature this way. If he is not available, then I will take it myself....twice just to make sure the reading is correct. He keeps a daily spreadsheet log on computer including an updated graph. I am required to enter my readings when I take my own temperature and can be in trouble if I fail to do so. Denise

Penelope Cruz or Elin Nordgren, when I'm asleep. Other than that, I take my own temperature when I'm awake! Luckily I still have a good imagination.

As I have posted in other areas, my mother was a firm believer in the rectal temperature. It was not discussed, but understood when her hand left my forehead, that I would be brought to her room and told to undress for my temperature to be taken. That same belief was communicated to the nurse(s) at my pediatrician's office. While the vitals were being taken, she would let her know that I was still given a rectal temperature at home and that it was her preference for me. Again, this was prior to digital alternatives, so it was glass rectal or oral only. Shortly after this discussion, following the check of my BP, she would tell me to turn over onto my tummy so she could get my temperature taken.

Passivetemp,

Up until the end of age 4, my mom took my rectal temperature and when I did not look good in the face and after my mom felt my forehead or put her face to my face, she will be going into the kitchen to get the thermometer and she would be sitting on the sofa watching TV and I would have my pants and underwear down and over my mom's lap with her inserting the cold thermometer into me.

For John Q Public!

Yes, rectal temps are still taken in our home. About a month ago my daughter and her friend, who lives with us, both came down with that awful flu. Both are 25. I was told to have them wear surgical masks to avoid contagion, whenever I entered their bedrooms. They both agreed to have their temperatures taken rectally. So, 3 or 4 times per day, for 9 days, it was bed covers down, masks up, pajama pants down, and bottoms up for my mom's trusty old rectal thermometer. I believe that they were too sick to care about my seeing their bare bottoms upturned to have their temps taken!

I have been lucky to have had a few girl fiends who took my temperature (mostly in play situations) and I took theirs too. Currently my wife does the honors for play and when I am not feeling well. She receives as well in both settings

@ruthiney, The subject of rectal temps interested me enough to read each and every post in this thread. Of course, I loved yours - including your older ones when you told about Tara taking yours. I remember talking to you at the time and it had a most warming effect to hear you describe how she did it! Warming indeed! Maybe someone needed to take mine???

For the moment I'm taking my temperature myself.

If I was told I needed to have a rectal temperature done then I would have to get one of the neighbors that just moved in.

She and I haven't even met but hey I look at it this way I'm a women she's a women. So what if I have to take all my clothes off and lay on my back knees bent and spread open as wide as I can to open my rectum to have a thermometer inserted for 5 minutes a couple times. If that's what the doctor orders ........and I can get the neighbor to Alblige when necessary , it's a health thing.

Now if she won't. Then I guess I'll have to ask the man a couple doors down. Again he's not seen me naked but it is a health thing. I would think he may do it. I'm sure or that lady's husband can come with her to help. When there's a will there's a way .......

Unfortunately I'm the only one. My wife won't hear of it. I look at pics of women, when I'm taking my temp., so in a sense, I'm fantasizing about taking theirs, and them taking mine.

The last time my mother took my rectal temperature was when I was about 10. Normally I took it myself but that time I had tried cheating, so she did it "baby style" before spanking me.

In adult age: my wife takes my temperature rectally whenever I see feverish or sick (e.g. before an enema for stomach ache) or when I'm "acting up" (often precedes a spanking). Sometimes for just play.

Unfortunately I take my own. It is, however, often enhanced with an online partner.

A nurse practitioner and she always have an aid with her. And she just took it about an hour ago in my hotel room since I'm homeless. Plus a physical from head to toe. And as of right know she is next door. Because I heard a woman say ouch during her rectal temperature. And after that rectal temperature. She then does a rectal exam first because your pants are down and your over on your stomach.

Before my pregnancy, my husband charted my fertility cycle with a Basal Body Temperature chart. Every morning of my chart days, it was bottoms up for the basal thermometer, as my temp was taken rectally. Now, we take each other's temperature rectally whenever one of us does not feel well.

Its always fun to have a younger Woman's hand involved in taking mine. My Naughty Nurse @Breaze takes it when ever we are together.

Wish we were together now, @BKuggs , I would for sure do that to you, and a full exam on our table!!! I'm next though!! 😃

Usuallly myself - sometimes my wife.

I take my temperature three times a day. In the morning, when I return from the gym and before going to bed. I use a mercury thermometer as well as a Vick’s and kinsa computerized ones
