OB/GYN

So I am in my second week on the OB rotation. I have seen some really cool things and some really disturbing things. I got to deliver my first baby on Sunday morning. I also got to scrub into a C-section. That was wild. It was an emergency section. The baby's heart rate slowed down and we had to rush into the OR. Within five minutes we had taken a ten and a half pound monster baby out. It was crazy. The attending let me sew the mom back up by myself. It was pretty sweet. As for the not so fun stuff....let's just say I have smelled and seen some very unclean things. Yuck. Also, It is never fun to see a 8 1/2 months pregnant 14 year old girl with her 17 year old "baby daddy". Also I don't know if I could ever do this for a living. It just feels uncomfortable/unnatural to check a cervix. I will leave you with a few pictures that sum up this last week and a half...
