Buying your first Stethoscope, what was it like?

I am now a doctor and have the stethoscopes is normal. But when I was 16 I bought the first one, I was shaking like a leaf. It 'was one of the strongest feelings I've experienced in my lif

Can you tell me what feeling you felt the first time you have bought a stethoscope?

I remember holding it and just looking at it for a long time without using.

My legs trembled

I felt like it was naughty or shameful to have such an attraction, but the arousal far outweighed those negative feelings

Then I played with it for about 3-4 hours! I just couldn't put it down!

A lot of self satisfaction happened that day.

Shaking like a leaf as well when I went to get it. Bought a BP cuff and stethoscope combo. Could not wait to get them home. The pure joy and satisfaction the first time slipping the D-Ring cuff on to my arm. Placing the scope in my ears. So many years ago now. Had so so many since then😃 Hearing my Korotkoff Sounds for the first time😃

I was 18 or 19. Had seen a pharmacy in the city with a stethoscope in the window. Made up a story that I was buying it for a friend who had just started studying medicine. I remember feeling nervous on the bus coming home, even though it was wrapped up.

I will never forget that day, I saw a very good deal on the net and went to the shop to buy IT, when I entered the medical equipment shop my heart almost jumped out, needless to say, and after filling the guarantee documents I put my first real steth in my bag and started the never ending travel until I got home.

And like Octavia, first I watched it, was reading the manual and when I couldn't hold myself back, I stethed my heart for a long time 😃

My first one came with an old blood pressure cuff

All mine were purchased online. I always felt a little weird picking it up at the post office because it would sometimes say "stethoscope" or "fetal doppler" in the reference line. Nobody ever asked though. 😜

My first was from an "ortopedia" shop as they're called in Spain, which is where I was living at the time. I'd seen them in the window for a long time until finally I plucked up the courage to go in - and how to ask for one in Spanish!

So for those of you who don't know, it shouldn't come as a big surprise that the Spanish for stethoscope is... Fonendo :-)

I took my purchase back to work that afternoon and spent a long time in the bathroom, listening, listening...

I remember holding it and just looking at it for a long time without using. My legs trembled. I felt like it was naughty or shameful to have such an attraction, but the arousal far outweighed those negative feelings. Then I played with it for about 8 hours! I just couldn't put it down! A lot of self satisfaction happened that day.

I was in College at the time living by myself. The moment I took my brand new stethoscope out of its packaging, I felt nervous but elated at the same time. It was an amazing feeling and I used it to listen to myself all night.

I got a black littmann cardio 3.... they are really good 😃

you LITTMANN cardio 3 fantastics sound

I just bought my first stethoscope last Friday. I bought it at work, at a sale that was in the back of the cafeteria. I work at a large hospital, a teaching hospital in fact, so they have sales like this several times a year.

I was so excited to get it home! Luckily I didn't feel the need to explain myself to the cashier, especially since I was a young woman in scrubs with a hospital ID badge.

I bought a generic brand Sprague-Rappaport. I hope I made a good choice.

@Turquoise: Nothing wrong with a sprague-rappaport! 😃

I was shaking like a leaf! It was a cheap blood pressure kit..... I'm surprised the lady behind the counter couldn't hear my Heart POUNDING in the store, my Heart was throbbing so hard it was surely visible to her. I went home and came almost as soon as I heard my valves do one cycle of Lub Dub!

Mail order - long before the interwebz. Just like buying anything else

I think I was nervous as well, but at the time i was too thrilled at the idea of actually learning from it. It was a cheap piece of crap that came with the blood pressure kit i bought. I can't even remember the "reason" i bought it originally but i found out quick enough that the stethoscope did work to hear some things and that's actually how i learned i could sleep to a beat😃

The first one I too got as part of a cheep BP kit. It was rather uneventful truth be told. The second was just s steth and again, it was rather un eventful. The last one was another BP kit combo because that was all they had, and same, just paid for it and left. No odd feelings.

Now the last time I bought a vet thermometer at Tractor Supply, my heart was racing a bit. Ditto with the big tube of KY and rubber gloves. And don't even get into the first bunch of enema stuff we bought. That day turned into quite a story...

It is funny, I think the closer a kink is to your heart, the more whacked you get as far as procuring stuff from it, though some stuff, like the enema stuff is just kinky, imho anyway. A steth is just not that weird a thing to buy. And if you are all that wearied out about it, you can always buy on line. For example I would have been a bit flushed buying my last big assortment of speculums at Wal Mart, so I got them on ebay.. Oddly enough I don't know if wal mart even carries them, but it would not surprise me. Now I have to check...

For speculums: Ebay, Medical Supply store, sex shops= YES! Walmart=NO. The closest thing to a speculum at Walmart would be a pair of pliers??? I'm pretty sure female play patients would not consider a pair of pliers as an acceptable speculum alternative. Just my opinion.

My first with a stethoscope was also purchasing a cheap blood pressure kit. I could barely walk up to the counter to pay for it. I was soo excited buying it that I actually felt wooosy. I had already known that I had a stethoscope/heartbeat fetish, but getting all woosy in the head definitely confirmed my steth fetish!

My first stethoscope was purchased some years ago. I still have it since it was a Littman and of good quality. It has served me well. I have used it on myself many times, but even better, I have used it on a number of girls we were happy to be my patients.

I make the girls do various things to bring their heartbeats up and down. Holding their breath, exercise, using ice in certain places, and of course other stimulation of a sensual nature.

The stethoscope has definitely been the best single investment ever!

So having said all this, if there are any girls in the Chicago-area that would like to have a stimulating session with a qualified "doctor" who will use his cold stethoscope on your chest, feel free to contact me.

I bought my very first one abroad during some holidays.

I noticed a store with 2 exposed and 1 was for - at then for me me- affordable price

So I finally managed to have a free moment alone to run over there and buy it. How embarassing it was to try to expain in another language what I wanted. I was all red face, and not only due to running, and so excited to have it.

I had to wait several hours again to be able to open it and try

My first steth was bought bought way before the internet made purchases so much simpler. I went to s specialist shoppnear the Harley Street medical area in London and paced up ad down for ages before going in. I was terrified they would ask qustions about what i wanted it for, or something technical about its proposed use.

But they sold me cheap-end one without question. At time cheap was all i could I afford .

I bought my first stethoscope in 2002, a reasonably priced Littmann nurses stethoscope but for a play doctor it did the job just fine. A few years later I upgraded to a Littmann Classic which I currently use. I purchased both instruments mail-order from a medical suppliers here in the UK. I'd already purchased speculums and a smear test kit from the medical suppliers so the stethoscope was just another item to add to my doctor's bag.

I bought my first one off Amazon when I was 18. I was so excited waiting for it to arrive and pulled my shirt off in my bedroom and got it out to use as soon as it arrived. I found it amazing to listen to myself for the first time since I was a kid and my doctor had let me listen to my heart, lungs and belly. Since it didn't have a non chill rim it made me aroused and gave me an erection pretty much straight away as I moved the ice cold bell and diaphragm around my bare skin and enjoyed listening to the sound of my heart beating, my breathing and the gurgling out of my stomach.

Actually I don’t really remember getting my first like my feelings etc. I do remember my first Littman it was a green classic 2se I got it geese 19 years ago. From a Rn friend when I was going to emt school. We spent an hour trying it out lol

The first one I brought was online, a Littmann Cardiology in Plum colour for my wife. My heart was pounding as I pushed the purchase button. I was so nervous waiting for it to arrive & when it did the excitement I felt was amazing. I have no idea how I was able to actually give it to her in the end but oh my what a night that was!

Just bought a cheap nurses sprague. Loved the double tubing at the time. Now I have a nice smoke black litmann

Well in nursing school we were told that we needed one and a manual sphygmomanometer. Our family didn't have much money at all. We were told that the college store had some and there were a few medical supply stores in town which is where I bought mine. I was excited. I bought a knock-off Sprague Rappaport. It was like $20.00 with a student discount. It was a hell of a way to test your hearing. If you could hear a heartbeat through it you had great hearing. LOL I swear my roomie and I would try to hear each others heartbeat for hours. My roomie had purchased one also. The next day in class you could surely tell who had money. The rich kids all had nice Littmann's and the rest of us had the cheap knock-off Sprague Rappaport's. Now thinking back on it we all looked like a bunch of idiots running around with the same color scrubs and our stethoscopes around our necks not knowing crap. LOL Hey, but we thought we looked cool. LOL Now I do have a Littmann Cardiology III.

I was the same way! I bought my first stethoscope before the Internet so I had to actually walk into a store. I was extremely nervous and had a story in mind in case I was asked why I wanted one (the story was my sister was going to be a nurse and I was buying it for her). Luckily, nobody asked why I wanted one. I was checked out by a young female and I fantasied about using it on her during the check out process...
