Catchin' babies..

Well, my month of surgery is finally over, and I move into two months of Obstetrics and Gynecology. It officially wraps up my last clinical core rotation for my graduation requirements. I guess it would have been nice to finish up with something easy, but it'll all be over with soon enough. I've started out the two months on Labor and Delivery, at Ben Taub Hospital which delivers over 70,000 babies a year. Yeah.. that number I just quoted was correct. That's a lot of babies ladies and gentlemen. Hopefully, I'll be able to deliver a handful of those that come my way. It's a pretty amazing experience, bringing a new life into the world. A birthday is something that most people celebrate across the world, it kind of means something to be there at the time that will be so important to that person for the rest of their life. Also, what would a post about labor and delivery be about without pictures?

So cute! ^_^ hehe...are they really this fat? Of course, I know they're not newborns... ;) I think my Mom told me I was 8 lbs. 10 oz when I was born. Yes, I was a chub ball (and that's okay! I was well-fed in there those 9 mths, and I'm darn well happy about it)! =P lol I wonder if it's more than just a myth that being born roly poly leads to being slender as an adult? I guess it's true in my case.
