Your Gyno Said WHAT???
Okay, three things you should know about.
1. On THURSDAY, October 4th, you want to be here and at Butrfly’s place. See, Butrfly and I got to talking the other day, a conversation spawned by this post of hers, and we realized that every woman who has ever had to deal with an OB/GYN has had some kind of horrible, or at least bizarre, experience. So, thought we, wouldn’t it be fun to have a big carnival of gyno-bashing! We’re calling it “From Behind the Stir-ups– Your worst OB/GYN story”. So, get thinking and writing now. On Thurs. Oct 4, she and I will both post and provide a Mr. Linky so that you can add your link to the party (and it would be lovely if you were to link back to us in that post so that your readers can find the list of all the participants). Spread the word around. This promises to be hilarious and cathartic! It’s not a competition—so don’t let fear of your story not being the funniest or the awfullest keep you from playing along. We want EVERYONE’s worst tale! And I KNOW you have a story to contribute.
2. Cre8buzz. Yes, I KNOW you’re sick of hearing about this from me, but here’s the thing: This site has been in Beta, but they are going public on OCTOBER 7. Which means that they are going to be HUGE very soon! So, I recommend that if you have not already joined Cre8buzz, that you do so now by clicking here. That will get you in BEFORE they go public, meaning that you’ll already be in prime position when they do go public, meaning more exposure for you and your blog. So get on it, peeps!
3. Guzzling a large bottle of V8 and then, post-guzzle, realizing that it was rancid results in… well… bowel issues. Just trust me on this one, okay?
And with that, I bid you adieu.
1) Yuck
2) Yay
3) Yuck
I have a story, but it’s not about me, it’s about a patient in the office where I worked. Unfortunately, I have a little bit of what the doctors call “mild retardation” so remembering to come back on oct 4th is very unlikely
Oh, I’ve got a GOOD ONE. I’ll be here next week with not bells, but a stupid paper gown on.
Ironically this week I already talked about my OB and the fact that she’s a weight nazi…so I think I’ll be back on the 4th just to read. Have fun everybody!
Sounds fun- and funny.
Hmmm, not sure if I have a good story. I’m sure I do, but it’s not comng to me at the moment. But that’s why we have until Oct 4th, right, for our brains to get in gear??
Awesomeness. Or..wait…yeah. It can be awesome. You know what I’m going to do? I’m going to throw Sugar Kane’s Glittery Gyno joke in the Mr. Linky, too. That was super funny. Think she’ll care? I’m pretty sure she was kidnapped or something.
Anyway, dig deep, girls! (HAHAH! EW!) You know you all have a story. You can tell it in third person if you’re embarssed!
Brill - My boss is cracking down so I won’t get my post up until lunch. Sorry!!!
Sounds like fun! I already have my posts up, but I’ll relink on the 4th. And, yes, Butrfly, I will be digging deep.
The horrors have no bounds.
Ditto Kim. I’ll be thinking.
I don’t know If I have any stories, but I’ll dig deep into my brain to try and remember…
Oh yeah, I’ve got that one about the clowns and tigers. No, wait- I’m thinking of the circus.
Dang.
I’ll keep working on it.
I don’t think I have any stories. Honest. The gyno experience thus far has been very…boring.
But the news about cre8buzz? Exciting! I’ll try to recruit, honest.
And thanks for not sharing too much about the rancid V8. *shudder*
Oooooh gynie stories. I can’t wait! BRILLIANT!
Thanks for the advice on #3. Here’s my counter-advice: Never drink V8. That’s just disgusting.
Hmm…not sure I’ve got any stories either…my OB/GYN walks on water. Seriously I absolutely love her.
I’ll have to think about before her- there has to be something.
Well even if I can’t “play” I’m looking forward to reading others posts.
I’ll have a V8 with some vodka, thank you.
Finally, you are having a theme post I can contribute to! Of course I have a gyno story. It’s hilarious. Well to me, anyway.
mm, i love v8. as for the gyno stories, i think i’ll just read, rather than participate. but has anyone ever seen the movie waitress? it’s made me think of my gyno in a new light…naughty pumpkin pie.
I can’t wait to participate in the your gyno said what day. Because I have a story from last month.
Whee!
I really hope you are asleep, for once!
I wish I had a funny story–but my OB nearly killed me, and there’s very little humor in crap like that. I sure want everyone elses stories though
and Cre8buzz is awesome. Brillig is, of course, numero Uno over there. Everybody loves you, baby.
Brilly-Brill, my SOS post is up and as my day is quite busy, would you mind doing the linky honors? Please?

I don’t know about a gyno story, but I just did a post yesterday about the unfortunate side effects of spinning class.
I can’t bash my OB/GYN, he’s the best. Sexy, cool, sweet, you name it. He’s called me “honey”, has kissed me on the cheek every visit, and has told me that I’ve got the best husband. I have no complaints. Buuuuuuuuuuuuuut… I could bash the first OB/GYN I saw when I first became pregnant. That guy was a ‘too-old-to-be-practicing-whack-a-doo’.
Cre8Buzz::I feel ya! Place is the bomb!
(slaps forehead) Sorry about the V8, girl!
I really can’t think of a gyno horror story, but I advertised this carnival/meme in a post on my blog tonight.
I will be sure to be back Thursday to read the yucky stories…
I am getting frustrated feeling stupid with the “buzz”..gonna send a few questions your way soon..hope that is ok.
