Mom would pretty much have me laying on my stomach she would dip the the thermometer in Vaseline then slide it in my butt she would leave it for 3 minutes or more if I was running a fever then I got a Tylenol suppository
At the pediatrician office the same but as I got older left leg bent just a little laying more on my stomach and side . back then you knew want to expect was embarrassing a little if the door was open or more than just the nurse and your mother was in the room
Why was ur wife’s temperature taking in her butt as adult?

My mother was a pediatric nurse, so our temperatures were always taken rectally, tot-to-twenties. I remember being 25 when I had the flu. Robe off, pajama pants down, and bare bottoms up for her old Vaselined mercury thermometer- 3 or 4 times a day, for a week!
