Patient Interaction of the Day

Dr: We’re going to turn on the Soothing Pandora channel, now. Although we question some of the choices of music that the play on there.

Pt: What do you mean?

Dr: Well, sometimes they play cricket noises. Or cow noises. Now, I don’t come from here, so maybe it’s different around here, but I don’t find cow noises soothing.

Pt: The only time I find a cow soothing is when it’s on my dinner plate.

Nicely said, good sir. 

I'M TRYING NEW THINGS AND I'M SCARED! Oh, and nipple twerking.

I just converted my blog to a tumblr. Why? I am not sure. The only reason I can think of is because it’s 3:25 am and, although my alarm clock will go off in less than 4 hours, my body still has not converted back to days after my stint on night shift during Labor and Delivery.

If you are also a tumblr fan, here is a link to my tumblr! I look forward to reblogging a lot of great posts and have already discovered some awesome tumblrs to follow! Now... I should probably contemplate the idea of sleep.

I shall leave you with two concepts that I discussed today, in great detail, both with physicians and patients, that you will only ever seriously discuss during OB/GYN. 

Concept 1. Nipple Twerking.

Contrary to popular belief and good timing, this is not a reference to Miley’s recent VMA performance. Instead, it refers to nipple stimulation to increase and continue milk production after delivery.

Get it, Miley!

 Concept 2. Perineal massage.

Enough said. No image required.

Yes. These were both the subjects of medical conversations. Serious. Medical. Conversations.
