Conversation with my husband

DH:  USA Today called an abdominal ultrasound a "jelly on the belly" scan.  We need a name like that for the transvaginal one.

Me:  Um...something rhyming with vag?

DH:  I got it.  A "pole in the hole."

Me:  [snarf my water across the table]

DH:  Our sonographer should have a t-shirt that says on the front "Will it be Jelly on the Belly" and on the back "Or a Pole in the Hole?"

Me:  [laugh until I pass out]

  1. I am cracking up right now! My hubby came with me for our first ultrasound on Tuesday, and was a little appalled when he saw the pole. He was like, uh, that's what you've been doing every time you come here? I told him that the dildo cam gets more action than him. I love that T-shirt idea!! Too much!

  13. Awesome! Jelly on the belly even sounds so much more innocuous. For what it's worth, I thought tv ultrasounds were long behind me, so I was pretty shocked when my NT scan was vaginal...and done by a gruff, crochety old man who was really rough, too:( Also, as you probably experience now too, since the cervical length checks are transvaginal, I get the pleasure of both types these days:-/
