[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 200080, member: 1991"] I love playing with techs. When I was expecting easy child I was in hospital for three weeks before her birth due to placental insufficiency. I was having ultrasounds and fetal monitors almost daily while they tracked not only her heartbeat but also her movement. Every second day was another blood test so when the hormone levels began to drop, it was time to get the baby out. So when these checks become routine you try to find things to talk about. One day the sonographer was running the probe thingie over my tummy as usual and waiting for me to report movements when we began talking about our various jobs. I was working with animals at the time so she mentioned that her boyfriend did too. "He's practising animal husbandry," she told me. Without even thinking and remembering a line from Tom Lehrer, I flashed right back with, "And have they caught him at it yet?" She had to re-start the monitoring session, she was laughing so hard. Like the time I was trying to describe my bladder problem to a hospital doctor as "similar to prostate trouble". The doctor went to great pains to explain WHY a woman doesn't have a prostate. Um, yeah, I do know that doctor, but how else can I describe how it seems? Marg [/QUOTE]
