Also, my husband used to faint with shots and bloodwork. He doesn't anymore because of being very sick; the exposure got him used to it. But when we got our blood drawn to get married, he had to sit with his head down between his knees for like fifteen minutes.

I've never heard of sympathy vomiting before. It does not sound pleasant.

And why did you have to get blood drawn to get married? Did you have to make an alchemy circle with your blood entwined or something?

Some places still make you get a blood test before you get married--it's a moldy old public health measure from the pre-penicillin early 20th century, supposedly to curb the spread of STDs. Because back then there was no real cure for syphilis--they had arsenic and that was about it.

I thought it was mercury, not arsenic, that they treated syphilis with. (Which is really not the point of this conversation, I just got stuck on that detail.) Either way, rather toxic, but so was syphilis.

It is not pleasant. It is especially unpleasant when your kid pukes because who has to clean it? The mommy. *sigh* Shit and vomit and killing bugs. The triumvirate of Mommy-suck.

Anon below has it right. Thirteen years ago in MS, in order to get married, you had to be tested for syphilis. Nothing else. Just syphilis.

Ah, that seems like a bloody waste of bloodwork, pun not intended. I can only deal with shit and vomit and bugs in small doses lol. I applaud you for putting up with your kid.

I agree. IDK why if they're gonna test your blood anyway, they don't do a full STD panel. Or just, you know, not do it at all. LOL

*takes a bow*

Fortunately my oldest kid never throws up now that she's older, and the baby hasn't yet. *crosses fingers*

I think some places also use it to figure out the chances of your kids having defects...? At least, that's what I heard at some point. Then again, they could've just been fucking with me.
