clinic

Another day almost done at the clinic....its 10pm and my second full shift here. Its been another crazy/wonderful/mad/super tiring day. I did my first breast exam, another initial (which takes a few hours of interviewing in Spanish) watched a pap, attempted to draw blood, and another gazillion things I can think of right now. My last shift here I was up all night following another student in a labor sit. They ended up going to the hospital so I still haven’t seen a birth but am getting the hand of listening to fetal heart tones and feelings bellies. Its so amazing how much can be learned in 24 hours....Off to try and get some sleep in case a laboring mama comes in, I’m up for the birth again...
