Yesterday I saw my first C-section as a nurse (student). There is only 1 student allowed in L&D at a time and this was my week. When I got to clinical and learned that there was a scheduled C-section planned that day for my rotation in labor and delivery I was both excited and nervous.
I was afraid I might be sick or worse, embarass myself by taking a dive. I've heard horror stories and didn't want to be "the one" this quarter. I wasn't. I watched the C-section and helped fetch suction containers and supplies. When the surgeon tied the patients tubes, he called me over so I could see a little closer.
I have to say it was the coolest thing I have seen yet.
That baby was 11lbs 4oz and was only in the 37th week as of yesterday. Talk about LGA!
I can't wait until next week, but since it was my only week in L&D, I doubt I get to see any more this quarter.
