OB/GYN and ex-husband…huh?

by

So this morning I was listening to our newest morning show in Huntsville, the Bob and Sheri show. It’s a syndicated show out of…somewhere else. They were speaking of relationships with ex spouses. Now, the ex and I have a pretty good relationship, so this isn’t a “slam the baby momma” post, but the example they were talking about is alittle too good of a relationship…

A lady called in, in her late twenties, if I had to guess, to tell about her relationship with her ex. She was pregnant with her new husband’s child and went to an OB/GYN clinic. They got her ready for the exam, the sonogram tech did a heart beat check, then sent for the doctor for his exam.

It was her ex. Now how she didn’t know he was a doctor at that practice, I don’t know. Why she didn’t ask for another doctor…I don’t know. She didn’t, and he became her OB/GYN. He was with her through the pregnancy, at the birth, and is still her GYN.

Um…no. They had been married for about 5 years. Divorced, then 10 years later she walks into the OB about 4 months pregnant.

“I could understand if he were your normal doctor, but there’s a difference between looking in your ear…and you know…” Bob said

“It’s something he’s already saw…”She responded.

Sheri said, “I think it would be great to have a husband as a gynecologist, I just never had one who get through the classes…” nice. That’s just strange. Any thoughts? Am I just being “a guy”?

    That has to be one of the most disgusting things I have ever heard. At my age, I have seen and heard of a few. A civil adult relationship with one’s ex is nice especially if there are kids involved. If there are no kids why even have a relationship. After 10 years this is like “lookie, lookie, see what you’ve been missing.
    Has she remarried? So, where is her new husband? Surely, he can’t be real comfortable with this situation. I’d have a huge problem if my new husband was her ex and her ob/gyn. The fur would fly!!!
