Top drawer - underwear, my BBT, which thank god hasn't been used in a while Middle drawer - socks, my fun "toy" and my fetal Doppler (is it weird that they get stashed together??) Bottom drawer- belts & tights
My drawer is pretty hilarious so I haven't moved anything. Besides chapstick and a nail file, I have my positive FRER from this pregnancy next to a deck of cards DH got me for one of our early Valentines Days together. It's a truth or dare adult game with the words "SEX" across the front. I love that the pregnancy test is right next to the sex cards.
I have old chargers, way too many bank statements, work papers, garbage, random jewellery, diclectin, Zoloft, tons of DS' books, and my swipe card for work.
No sex toys in this house, we're pretty boring and its a miracle if we have lube because we never buy it.
I have a mini dresser next to the bed and it's crammed full of stuff.
On top: a million perfume and nail polish bottles, magazines, assorted junk. Top drawer: makeup, loose change, condoms, lube Second drawer: underwear Third drawer: bras Fourth drawer: bathing suits, lingerie I never wear, sex toys, extra batteries.
@ashile10 and @ifwisheswerefishes Whenever I hear about somebody who doesn't have one I feel like I'm listening to somebody who doesn't have indoor plumbing. it's a mixture of bewilderment and pity

I have a vibrator. But it's tiny, four years old, and so pathetic that it barely even buzzes anymore. I use it in a pinch but really, that's the only one I have. I use my hands or the showerhead but really...DH doesn't like them (how he was raised -- I'm working on him) so we have like NO toys or restraints or books or sexy stuff.

I guess because of the way I was raised I feel kind of guilty internally for even considering it.
But its also probably a lot to do with my phobia of feeling any part of my body that has an "inside." It creeps me the eff out.
It sort of creeps me out when DH uses his hand there. I mean I never say anything and I tend to enjoy it when he does it. It just makes me imagine my hand being there. And that just makes me feel like puking.
Wtf is wrong with me?
There is absolutely nothing wrong with you. Lots of women are sent really unhealthy messages about their bodies, and many of us internalize the hell out of those messages. There are some wonderful books out there you could read if you're interested in becoming more comfortable with your body - one that helped me personally is Because it Feels Good by Debby Herbenick. But you don't have to change a thing if you're happy!!
Thread hijack!! What a fascinating phobia. I was thinking you had a more specifically-sexuality related issue, but it sounds broader than that. Mine is dark water - I can't handle being near bodies of water at night. I used to have these awful dreams about drowning in black water, like an unlit pool or the ocean - shudder.
I would be fascinated by a GTKY about phobias. I am terrified of sleeping bags. My sister closed the top and trapped me inside one when I was about seven, and now they scare the hell out of me.

Oh, and I don't love that you're terrified of sleeping bags. I think it would be a cool GTKY.
I don't have a nightstand, but on the shelf on my headboard I have a journal that I write my crazy preggo dreams in, what to expect when you're expecting, lube, vaseline, vicks vapo rub, a pen, a pair of earrings, my phone charger and a water bottle. On a small table next to my bed is the humidifier, and in the head board drawer is one personal massager. All my other lady fun toys haven't been fully unpacked since we moved...

I could never keep sexy stuff next to my bed because the kids always get in that drawer.
No sex toys in this house, we're pretty boring and its a miracle if we have lube because we never buy it.
On top: a million perfume and nail polish bottles, magazines, assorted junk.
Top drawer: makeup, loose change, condoms, lube
Second drawer: underwear
Third drawer: bras
Fourth drawer: bathing suits, lingerie I never wear, sex toys, extra batteries.
So, all the basics.
