Gynecology revisited

[Goannabanda 0]

Here in Australia, a common nickname for a vagina is "fanny" - so it used to crack us up as kids to hear Americans say they fell on theirs, especially guys!!

Other nicknames heard around these parts:

snatch

pussy

The Y

My 5yo DS said to me the other day ""mum where's your penis?" I explained that as a girl, I didn't have one, I had a vagina instead. Puzzled, he said "so how does your wee get out?" It was hard not to laugh.

Here's antoher one for you: Last night we were looking at his baby scrapbook, and he wanted to see a photo of the tunnel he came out of. Apparently DH told him that's how the babies get out. We read the scrapbook again tonight, and he wanted to know what colour it was in the tunnel, and what it was like in there. Time to borrow the book "Where do babies come from?" LOL!!

I had My first colonoscopy (sp?) at 32. 50 is the normal age, but since my Grandmother and 3 of her siblings died at 52 from colon cancer, the Dr's told my Mum to be tested at 42 (the fecal test are really unrealable) she had 3 pre cancer polyps, so the Dr's told all my siblings and myself to be tested at 32. Thank God because I also had 2 pre cancer polyps removed (so did my sister) . The Dr said if I had waited until 50 it would have been too late.

I can't wait for a hystertomy (sp?), My Dr's will probable give me one, but the do not usally take your cervix and they only take the ovaries if they really have to. Taking the cervix can sometimes lead to painfull intercourse. The ovaries control hormon production, so if they take them it's instant menopause, no waiting. If they just take the uterious, no periods, no b.c. , no cramps ....please sign me up!

P.S.

We call it "coozie".

My friend and her daughter call it a bo bo. I guess the daughter is very sensitive, so they buy her summers eve to clean with, and they call it bo bo soap.

My daughter and I just call the whole area her pee pee.
