it’s been a while
Hmm, it’s been quite sometime since I last updated my blog, or my fotopage, for that matter. Not that I don’t want to update, I just don’t feel like it, and furthermore, I don’t really have any other interesting topic, other than my boring life to write about. But then again, I can’t really leave my baby alone, can I?
Speaking of baby, I managed to deliver a baby boy last night. Probably the only baby I’m able to deliver throughout medical school. It wasn’t an easy delivery to begin with; the baby was face-down - face to mother’s back (normal would be face-up), there was quite a lot of caput (or swelling on the baby’s head -hopefully that’ll go away soon), and the mother is a 17 years old primip (ie 1st child). I was beginning to think that I’m going to stay in delivery suite all night, and she won’t deliver normally, but thankfully, he decided to make an appearance (after me and the midwife finished eating some toast during our supposedly 30 mins break - we only got 10 mins, mind you!).
Then again, as Nicky the midwife said, at least he let us gain some energy, before we got into action, heh! It was indeed a good experience. I just couldn’t make myself think how am I going get pregnant and go into labour. It’s soooooooooo scary and so bloody painful, and bloody of course!! haha. Oh well, let’s not go into that area of discussion. It’s still a loooong way to go..heheh
Poor Nicky though, the girl grabbed her neck while the anaesthetist tried to put some epidural in. And my back is still hurting from standing for hours. I don’t know how am I gonna survive being a doctor. I’m such a wimp!! Maybe I should join my dinda; exercise and build up some muscles. heheh.
Okay, enough rambling. Dunno what else to write. Till then, I’m content just reading other people’s blog. Laters!
