Sarah,
My words are of caution, and not about my first med.fet play experience. Ok, that was with Nellie, my next door neighbor, and we were 7 to 9 years of age, and I had gotten a child's doctor kit for my birthday...
Moving on to your "first play exam in the next couple of weeks"...
imho, it is my thought that anything that's going to happen, especially in a ' first play scene', should be discussed in detail, well in advance of the first day of play, and prior to the commencement of play. If yall don't discuss your likes and dislikes in advance, how is he going to know your limits; and, how will you know that you will not come away from the experience with a nipple having been amputated as part of the medical scene in his mind.
Ok, and yes, that is extreme. However, discuss everything in advance, and then let it all cool down for a few days (or a week or two) before you meet & greet, and play. And, then, come together (not literally, well yes...) and play ~ knowing that you both are on the same page with each of you understanding and knowing one another's likes and dislikes, and limits...
Set up goals for the play session... What do you want to experience? What does he want to come away from the experience with?
After all, you may have told him in a past discussion that you like a little pain. What if his idea of a little pain involves scapel play and scarification, whereas your thoughts floated toward him pinching your nipples when he examined your breasts? It's my thought that indepth discussions should take place before people play, unless they've played a lot together, and know one another real, real well.
Have you discussed safe words?
Do you have safe calls in place?
You mentioned that "I'm really hoping to be fully tied down and blindfolded." What are the color of his eyes?
Playing can be wonderful; I've done it for years in the med.fet venue, and in the leather community. Discuss everything in advance, and then have a wonderful first experience.
Now ~ go out and make it a gr8 evening!!!
