Stethed a family member or been stethed by a family member

How many of you have actually been stethed by a family member or has stethed a family member?

How did it feel? where you embarrassed about it or where they and who did the stething?

What was the reason for it?

Not me, actually, but a friend of mine, who's father was a doctor. Incidently, he told me about it. He was sick, had a cold, and his father listened to his lungs. When he told me about it, I had to restrain myself, so that he didn't realize anything about my stethoscope fetish. He told me that is was quite common, that the father examined the Family members when they were sick, included his teenage sisters. I didn't dare to ask precise questions, but just the Imagination, that he auscultates the Young Girls with bare breasts or in their bras, was enough to make me rock hard ;-)

As I've posted elsewhere, my father was a physician and acted as my doctor from the time I stopped going to a pediatrician until I left home for college. It felt normal at the time.

I was by my mother when I was in school. It was for a school project we did at A-Level. Having a medical fetish I chose to do a history of tv medical dramas and the practical element involved me making my own medical drama. I filmed some of it in the school medical room and some at home. In the school one of my teachers played a doctor and then at home my mother played another doctor. We managed to get a stethoscope as a prop and my mum used it on me as part of the scene we filmed at home. There was no script and we just improvised and after asking me a series of questions she said she needed to listen to my chest and then proceeded to do so. It wasnt enjoyable particularly, just embarrassing. The teacher who played the doctor was a young teacher of mine in her early 30's. She wore the steth around her neck but didnt use it on me, which was disappointing!

My parents used to listen to my little brother's lungs with their ears (he has asthma). Once my grandfather saw them doing this (he was a doctor) and bought them a stethoscope. I remember them playing with it when they first got it. Both of them stething him all over, lungs, heartbeat, everything. I would have died if it were me. It sounds so terrible. It would be horrifyingly embarassing.

I haven't. I think I cannot imagine it with a "close-family-member" but maybe with a cousin. But it never happend and actually I prefer non-relatives.

As a child I had mild asthma, triggered by certain allergies. At first we didn't know the cause so I frequently had unexpected attacks, consequently Mum and I were regulars at our GP's.

I am 63 years old now and I have one vivid memory that has lasted all my life.

I am 5/6 years old sitting in bed propped up by pillows. Mum is sitting on one side of my bed and Doctor on the other. My pyjama jacket is open, Doctor has just listened to my chest and my back. I am staring at the stethoscope hanging from his neck, wondering what is coming next ( I can even remember the stethoscope. Typical 1950/60's, two thick black rubber tubes leading to a 'Y' shaped joint then a longer single tube with a cone shaped chestpiece ).

Doctor and Mum were discussing my symptoms and what to prescribe, Mum asking a million questions mainly about my breathing and coughing and wheezy chest. Doctor takes off his stethoscope and holds it out towards Mum, "Would you like to take a listen ?" he asks. Mum says she doesn't know what to listen for, but takes the stethoscope anyway and places it in her ears. Doctor places the chestpiece on my chest, allows Mum to listen, then moves it to another position, then gives her the chestpiece and tells to slowly move it around my chest. After a short while Mum removes the stethoscope and says she could some wheezing but mainly she could hear my heartbeat. Doctor says "Why don't you try from the back, you can hear the lungs better" She put the stethoscope back in her ears and told me to sit forward. Doctor told her to do as before, moving the stethoscope slowly over my back, he then told me to breath deeply. Mum listened all over my back, taking a lot longer than she did at the front. Eventually she stopped and said "Oh Yes that's a really loud crackling sound from the back" Doctor held out his hand to receive his stethoscope but Mum put it back in her ears and started to listen to my back again. She must have intrigued at what she could hear !! Again she listened all over my back, but this time seemed to keep the chestpiece in position for longer before moving it. She eventually returned the stethoscope, Doctor left her a prescription and left.

Although this was my Mum and she had no medical knowledge at all, this was the most sensational examination I have ever had and I am sure this is where my fantasy started. For me it is all about the stethoscope, not what I can hear, but the sight, the feel, the wearing, the using and having it used on me. I also think this is why I prefer female Doctors

Wow. Must be embarracing for you. I loved to read. Very well describtion.

As EMT I have stethed many family members over the years.

Many times. My mother, father, sister, cousins etc. What can I say? I'm a nurse. That is one of the reasons I decided to stay down here instead of the town I was born in. Seems everyone wants advice. LOL

I have never been and would not want to.

A male cousin and my sister. The why is that we are turned on by the who experience,

Nope but daddy(lieutenant fireman\emt) did take my pulse one time about 8-10yo. It was terrible...

My mother and my wife were nurses so yes all the time.

As I have written in another post, there ae many cardiac problems in my wife's family.

We have a “monthly physical” were we auscultate our children and each other (heart sounds, pulse, blood pressure, lungs) and information are given to the doctor during the visits.

Yes, when I was 12--14-ish. My mother was a nurse practitioner, and when I was sich I would open/remove my shirt, and she would steh my lungs and chest. I would have preferred that it was my male doctor.

Maletist, I can understand being uncomfortable being auscultated by one’s mother. While I like being auscultated by women, I’m not what I’d do if J had to choose between being auscultated by my mom or by a man.

My mother was a nurse and she stethed me a lot growing up. Sometimes almost fully undressed, other times not. I used to steal her stethoscopes when she wasn't home and take them to my room, so relieved she never caught me reenacting scenes from her or the pediatricians exams.

My two female cousins.

Yes many adults and kids. when I was a kid with the stethoscope i was given by my pediatrician. I've mentioned in other posts.

Stethingyou; what was the situa with the female cousins? Who stethed whom? What was the reason?

My dad’s a doctor so I’ve been stethed by him plenty over the years. Mostly my chest if I wasnt feeling well or just to check breathing for a general checkup. He’s probably stethed my heart and stomach before, too, but I don’t remember that as much.
