Yesterday i was on call with this really nice consultant who took so much time out to teach us and criticise us like constructively.. rare opportunity and..
I got to do this ultrasound scan for this lady and tell her she was 12 weeks pregnant.. Super cool
I did not even trust myself to do the scan but my consultant was convinced that it was something brainless
So off i go put the jelly and probe (the right way he explained the physics behind it first of course)
And wow this fetus appears on the screen and it was an amazing experience
Especially when the lady was so happy she teared i was in such amazement i wanted to tear too and after that i was talking to the other girl on call and she felt the same way too lol.. amazing stuff :) I loved the gynae on call, great experience!
And then off i went hunting for the hear beat in the right plane etc
Very interesting stuff :):)
Ahh thinking of applying to do paediatric and adolescent obs and gynae for 4 weeks of my elective
It's been such a long long week with 12 hour days, but i am :):) tired but rewarding week hehe
Giving myself a lie in tomorrow morning and then going in for the afternoon since that ends at 7 pm anyway hehe
Friday will be spent in Croyden on the community study day.
Chinese New Year is coming up this weekend, but the atmosphere isn't festive at all!
Miss Chinese New Year back home..
I was just telling someone ( i cannot remember who.. i must be getting old haha) that we need to apply for jobs next year and then i realized it's not next year but this year..
Scary stuff!! Still undecided.. Funny thing is that when i did an o&g attachment in 2nd year i remember telling myself how it's definitely not something for me, but now, i find myself loving it more and more :) Maybe sometimes the second time is better haha i remember like the first time i went to paris i thought it was ok, not bad but not how i expected it to be after all the hype, but the second time i went, i loved it :) All the nice sidewalk cafes, food etc.. Hmm second choice of specialty?
