Shaun and I were talking the other day about how much he knows about the female reproductive system so I decided to give him an impromptu quiz. His answers definitely proved again my post below that I talk about this way too much! But since we got so many laughs out of it...I thought I would pass it on to all of you! Enjoy!

Answers below if you need them!
5 or less- "Spare Me the Details" Hubby--
The word "tampon" sends chills down your spine, and you do everything in your power to avoid talking about making a baby unless of course it has to do with sex. While your "manly" exterior is pretty cute at times, your wife needs you now more than ever to take a more active role.
6 to 10- "It Takes Two to Tango" Hubby--
You have surprised yourself with all of the knowledge you have absorbed from your wife's ttc talk. At first you tried to avoid the topic, but over time you have realized that it takes a strong partnership to make it through this tough time.
11-15- "Sweet as Puddin Pie" Hubby--
You care so much about your sweet wife, and you do your very best to understand all of these medical procedures. Sometimes you get your medical info just a little confused, but you know an impressive amount, and you are on your way to dr status in the near future!
16-20- "Just Call Me Doc" Hubby--
From FSH to LH to HCG and anything in between, you know it all! In fact, you know more about the female reproductive system than the majority of females. You are a great listener, and you give shots with skill and precision.
Dr. Shaun scored a 16! I made the descriptions for the points before he took the quiz so I wasn't partial...I actually thought he was going to be the "Sweet as Puddin Pie" Hubby...which he definitely is too :)
My mid-cycle u/s is tomorrow so I will post an update!
Answers to quiz: 1. 28; 2. OPK; 3. Clomid; 4. Pre-Seed; 5. Take temp; 6. Trigger shot; 7. Two Week Wait; 8. Hot flashes, moody, headaches, bloating...and more!; 9. Implantation Bleeding; 10. Intrauterine Insemination; 11. Luteal Phase; 12. 14 days; 13. In-Vitro Fertilization; 14. Butt; 15. Follicles and/or Uterine Lining; 16. 36 hours; 17. HCG; 18. Progesterone; 19. 7; 20. Ovulation (give your hubby the points if he put the other big o instead)

You made this quiz? WOW! I can't wait to ask DH all these questions! I'll let you know where he fits. My guess is "Sweet as puddin' pie" ;-)
I had a to think some before getting the answers to some (like the sperm friendly lube) - it's been years since we tried "au natural"!!!
This was AWESOME!!!
I gave it to hubby and he scored a 6.5. He got 1/2 credit for saying snooze for #5 and then changing it to temperature charts. Some of his answers were hilarious so I thought I'd share - 6. egg maker instead of trigger shot and 10. IUI = internal uterus instigator
He said I do talk about it a lot, he just chooses not to listen. ;o)
***HUGS***
This was great! Loved it! Hubby scored a 7....after I prodded him on a couple. I thought I would share a couple of his answers, too.
9. The Freak-Out
11. Tough Times
Also, he said that he didn't have to know all this stuff because I'm Dr. House in heels. I laughed so hard that I just couldn't be mad at him!
I'm scared to know how LITTLE my dh knows! I'll be asking him tomorrow!
OK here goes - I was right. My DH is Sweet as puddin pie!
He got 13. But to give him a little credit he'd forgotten some of the "early ttc" things. For eg, he got Clomid confused with metformin, and thought the "Big O" was the "Big Ovary" (considering the size of my ovaries with each IVF, I can't say he's wrong actually! But no I didn't give him the points for that one!)
I can't believe you made this up on the spot! It totally belongs in redbook or Oprah magazine. I'm going to give it to my DH this weekend (the weeknights just seem to busy these days).
I am impressed.
OMG - you HAVE to publish this! It is quite impressive. I can't wait to get home and have DH take the test. Maybe this will help him realize that he really isn't as involved as he thinks he is :-)
Thirteen! DH is very proud of himself.
Thanks for the fun quiz!
LOL my DH got 13. You know what he said two of the side effects of fertility meds are? He said "dry cervix" and then he said "fertility!!" Then he changed his mind and said "crazy hormonal outbursts" and "uhh, I can't think of anything else" so I told him that the dry cervix thing works. LOL!!
