This week I had the amazing opportunity to see a new life enter this world. It was actually one of the most amazing things, big smiles and giggles were included.
One of the perks of driving the extra mile to my clinical placement is that my tutor has been working in that hospital for a while now which gives us more access to the facility which renders more learning opportunities. This means that the individuals in my group have to opportunity of seeing a c-section.
It was this week that I had to privilege. My name was drawn from a lottery and I got to go.
IT WAS AMAZING!
Watching it was super cool and it all happen very fast. The doctor makes his incisions into the belly, once he opens the sac (breaking the water) the assistant pushing the baby out and there I saw new life entering the world. It was amazing to see a baby for the very first time in real life. It was beautiful. The father had the opportunity to hold the baby first since the mom was a little busy being stitched up again. The baby was very beautiful as well. I was amazed that I could be a part of it. As the little one was coming out I had a huge smile on my face. It was amazing to watch the Dad see his child for the very first time and he also was able to cut the umbilical cord to make a belly button :)
Its been several days now but I still get a really big smile when I think about this small event since it really did not take that long but how much of an impact it has. One moment it is just a idea and the next it is a reality.
WOW!
