Overnight call=practicing delivering plastic babies.

BABIES.  Literally everywhere.  I’m on my 2nd to last night of L/D (and my 2nd to last overnight shift), and we are [knock on wood] having a slower night.  Anything would be slower compared to last night, when I was able to scrub into 3 C-sections, which lead to the emergence of 4 infants into this world [one set of twins=awesome].  I was pretty apprehensive starting this new rotation, but I have absolutely loved Labor and Delivery.  There is something really cool about meeting a woman who comes into Triage laboring, helping her as she continues to progress in labor, and finally getting to witness the birth of the child.  Suffice it to say, pretty cool stuff.
