The Obstetrician

... tomorrow I will see the obstetrician... sounds like an ostrich but she is

"A medical specialist who focuses on labor and delivery. Obstetrics is actually a surgical sub-specialty, meaning that an obstetrician attends surgical training and then specializes in the care of pregnant women and in surgeries which are related to labor and delivery, such as Cesarean sections. She typically works in a hospital environment, so that if a laboring mother experiences complications during the course of labor, she can be rushed into an operating room for treatment. "

I have to go alone, Richard could not get the time off (he forgot until yesterday ... poor micino...)
so i will brave it alone.... images of tragedy and blood are already filling my head...
and by the way I am not sure why i am seeing her, it is just on my schedule....







this is who i am seeing tomorrow














HOPEFULLY SHE WON'T LOOK LIKE THIS

  1. Hi Barbara. Here in Geneva they are called "sage-femmes". But now some men are starting doing the same job and they are called "sage-femmes-hommes" :)
