Just learned that my first rotation as a Family Medicine Resident will be Obstetrics. Wow, am I nervous!
Even though, I worked as a Paramedic for 10 years, I never had to deliver a child in the field. The only child that I ever delivered was my son, Ian. We had a resident with us during his delivery. Her name was Dr. Vino. I have often wondered where she ended up because she told us that Ian was the first baby that she ever delivered.
In less than a week, people are going to be looking to me to be their doctor. My palms can start to sweat just thinking about it and my palms don’t sweat. ever! So, I’m going to be saying a lot of prayer and reading a lot and trying to prepare.
I guess this is why I went to Medical school. Wow! What was I thinking?!?
