Thursday and Friday were both clinic days and I began to feel much more comfortable working there and doing exams. The attendings are warming up to all of us and probably don't hate us as much since we kinda know what we are doing now. On Friday I joked around with Dr. B and asked him when he was working next in L&D, he said he was working monday and i said well lucky for you so am i! Then later in the afternoon we chatted again and he asked if I had been reading up on how to deliver, I answered that i kinda had and he said "well you better if you want to deliver on Monday." I got really excited and I think he just kinda laughed when i couldn't wipe the smile off my face.

That day i also had a G1P0 19yo girl who was only spanish speaking. She was there for a prenatal check at 38 weeks and was pretty ready to deliver soon. She had a guy with her who i assumed to be the father and he translated for her. i was pretty much in love with him, soooooo hot. Well, i found out he was her brother not the father of the baby. Hopefully i can see him again when she is ready to deliver. fingers crossed i am working in L&D that day :)



Things I learned:
1- girls are really scared to get fat while breastfeeding, who started this stupid rumor??
2- its inappropriate to find your patient's baby-daddy to be attractive but the brother of the mom is totally free game, right?
3- It is ok for the patient to ask for the 'real doctor.' Nicole got a patient that when asked if she had any questions said, "No, but i would really like to see the professional." HAHAHA ouch
4- Residents have time to go to bars....I know this because I ran into Dr. B at a bar in Claremont Friday night. Sooooo random!
5- comfortable shoes make the day go by much smoother and faster
