Bring on the Wieners!!


Well my 6 weeks of all things vagina has come and gone. I saw a lot of crazy things, including one lady who came to the clinic bleeding profusely (picture an open vagina pooling with blood and snot-like blobs of blood clots - better yet, don't picture it, it really was one of the most disgusting things i've ever seen). I smelled a lot of crazy smells (enough said). I violated unconcious women as they prepared for surgery (at least that's what it felt like when I did a pelvic exam on anesthetized women - actually the best time to do an exam because they are completely relaxed). I did a lot of pap smears. I even caught a couple of babies as they came shooting out (right before the first one the doctor leaned down to me and whispered "your job is to hold on to this baby. do not drop this baby" - don't worry, I held on). Overall it was a really good experience, though. And after my week long vacation (more on my Florida trip later) I will be starting a Urology rotation. I figure I need to give equal time to penises as I have given to vaginas (though I'm sure I'll still be dealing with those too).

Gross. Gross. And GROSS! The baby delivery part would be pretty cool though!
