2 weddings and 2 babies

yesterday morning i finished my 5 deliveries, alhamdulillah.

i stayed at the hospital for my oncall from 9pm until 9am. initially it was a slow night until about 2am when the ladies started pouring into the labour room one by one. all 4 of us who waited were able to conduct 2 deliveries.

but for the first baby i did get into a tight situation with my friend. i'm rather sad and ashamed with myself for how i reacted to the situation in my exasperation to get a baby. i have no reasonable explanation for it. i guess both of us were in that state of mind making my spontaneous decision unforgivable. i hope my friend forgives me. we're in the same group and i have to face her everyday.

yesterday i attended 2 walimahs. one was in kuantan, my medical classmate Huda and the 2nd was in Temerloh, kak Jan's and Faizal. haha they ended up together. sesuai sangatlah.

after returning from the hospital like a zombie around 10pm (physically, mentally and emotionally drained) i went to bed immediately and awoke 2 hours later to go to huda's wedding.

sibah, asma', aishah and syahadah urged me to finish the delicious meal and we had to go to temerloh pulak for kak jan's majlis sambut menantu. i drove kak jan's car all the way to temerloh. (stop rolling ur eyes my dear friends :p ) the farthest journey so far for me. haha.



when we returned, i turned in early and only awoke this morning. terlebih tidur sampai dah termimpi2 pasal frightening creatures. i so read and watch too much fiction.

3 down 2 to go

i got another baby boy yesterday. it was at the eleventh hour. the patient came in with a fully dilated cervix. i kinda competed with a midwife student and we got on each other's nerves. but i dah apologize today.

tadi i jaga one patient from 11am but by 2.30pm she was not ready to deliver yet so i had to give up the case and hope for another 2 tonight inshaAllah.

this weekend ada another round of walimahs to go to.

it's the season to be married apparently. another round of weddings are due in december.

babies

i am gravida 0 para 2. a boy and a girl. alhamdulillah.

i managed to conduct 2 deliveries today. alhamdulilah the nurses who coached me were very2 nice and eager to teach. i learnt a lot.




am looking forward to the other 3 babies.

hampir pengsan

alhamdulillah i went to the ward yesterday and covered the reluctant patient's history. otherwise i would have been buried alive by Dr Murad this morning.

he chose my patient to discuss. the case was of missed abortion or intrauterine death. he approached the case very thoroughly. alhamdulillah i could answer some of his questions.

towards the end of the discussion, about 1 hour later, i started to feel queasy and my already blurred vision became worse. i was seeing black dots everywhere. i sat on a nearby chair. dr tanye: äre you pregnant?" haha. hypoglycaemic attack kot! or even vasovagal attack.

my near-faint attacks have happened quite often. i hope i won't experience it when i'm a houseman nanti. it would be too embarrassing.

Obs and Gyny

"welcome back to O&G", say Dr Ziana, the course coordinator (and also my supervisor)

today is day 1. i'm posted to the antenatal ward. next week i'll be in the labour room.

my supervisor wants me and wa to follow her during her on-calls which start today.

i went to Prof Muhaya's motivational talk last saturday and received a wonderfully refreshing bekalan for my days ahead. this time, inshaAllah i'll share it (seriously). but later, hehe.
