1. Can't catch a break over here. DS2 was a hot mess last night from his 6mo vaccines and DS1 had a nose bleed in the middle of the night. I think I won't ever get to sleep again.
2. The nice weather this past weekend is making me long for spring. I can't wait to get the kids outside more often.
3. There was a resident Dr at DS2's appt yesterday that did his initial exam. She put him in a sitting position and let go without asking if he could sit. He can't, he knocked his head on the plastic case behind the table. The bitch didn't even apologize. She questioned his motor skills since he couldn't sit at exactly 6 months. Once she saw him get up on his hands and knees she backtracked and said he was fine. Bitch please, get your head out of the books and learn to interact with people if you are going to be a pediatrician. I'm pissed and after other things I haven't been happy about I will be finding a new ped for the kids.
4. DS2 starts daycare tomorrow, my parents are still up so he will just do a few hours building up from now until next week.
NJgirl84, I'd be pissed about #2 and following it up with a call to your doctor so it's noted. Agree that she needs to have better interactions with families if she wants to bed a pediatrician
1. Dd2 loves wearing her sneakers. She has decided she must wear them all day every day. Even in the house.
2. The girls are actually playing kind of nice together right now with the Ikea train tracks and block.
3. I finally scheduled an eye exam for this Friday. It has to be in my hometown, because the one place near us that takes our insurance, the Dr is out till the the end of March. This also means that I'm not going to try and get together with my inlaws on Friday evening. Aww shucks, I'm soo sad about that.
4. I'm getting really excited to go to Daniel Tiger live this weekend with the girls. I know that Dd1 is going to loose her shit and be so excited.
I wanted to do DT with DD but $ is a little too tight, especially with baby coming early.
This morning she wouldn't eat the peaches in her yogurt because she doesn't want to feel itchy. You know my kid is allergic to peaches because DT is.
1. Back to hospital tomorrow for another bilirubin blood draw. Levels aren't increasing but aren't decreasing. The worst pining her down while they hunt for a good vein!
2. Since DD2 came a few weeks early, I probably need to go back to work earlier than I was thinking and we have no childcare.

Did you tell the real doctor? We had a resident at DD2's 2 day appointment. He was fine but they didn't even ask if it was ok. She basically had two check ups, while we also had to wrangle DD1.
I'm over my new baby/me being practice, even though I'm a teacher. Don't mess with my new baby.
Yesterday someone was learning doing my 4 day old's blood draw. A nursing student couldn't find my uterus and kept prodding me. A resident woke us up at 7 am to check DD2 at the hospital and then the doctor came at noon. An aide was practicing vitals on DD2. We aren't a lab!
britab the PA came in after to redo the exam but the dr training was also there. If she hadn't I would have definitely said something right then, but I felt weird saying it in front of her. Quite a few of the last appts we've had there have been "double" because of training.
Also that's miserable how many experiences you've had with training. I'm with you, I'm all for learning but I would not be OK with it on my brand new baby, especially the blood draws. Also FX those bilirubin levels start dropping!

Omg DD does the same thing! She wants to live DT's life. So annoying.

1. I have my formal observation tomorrow and still have to do the paperwork for it (put in lesson plan, etc. on this stupid website). Dd was asleep when we got home so I sat in the car with her a while intending to work on it but just got too sleepy. So will have to get back up to work on it later. Blah.
2. Dd is pooping like 4-5 times a day; pretty runny/gooey. It's time for that to stop. She's been done her antibiotics for 2 weeks now. Unless the antimalarial is contributing ... 5 more days on that one. Ugh.
3. I think my girl scout cookies are going to be gone at lot earlier than usual. Most years I'm good about only having a couple each day. Today (just got them), not so much.
I have a friend named April who has gone 1.5 - 2 weeks, 2 days overdue with each of her kids. She has strong feels about this and could have written that.

I see an OB practice that's at a teaching hospital. I give birth at the same hospital. I see the OB Residents. There's an attending there at all times, but I don't have to see both, just the OB Resident that's my OB that day. At the hospital, they will ask if you're OK with having students observe before they let one in. I remember there was one student present at DS birth. Then up in recovery, when the nurse came to check me she asked if it was ok to have a group of students observe while she explained what she was doing. I never had any issues with any of this. But I really appreciate them asking me first and telling me it's just one, or it's a group of five or whatever. And the students never touched me.
Our pedi's office is part of the teaching program of our children's hospital, so sometimes they will have an intern shadowing the pedi. They always ask first if it's ok, and the intern observes or helps with the appointment, but isn't doing anything on their own.

Susan0utLoud, Why did you have o post the link? I've gone this long without watching a giraffes hoo-ha, and now I can't stop. I'm supposed to be reviewing the teaching stuff for the CPST class in 2 weeks. I have no self control.

My very last appt with ds there was an intern with our ob. The intern did the first part with all the questions and then was there with the ob when she did the exam. When the ob discovered I was at 5 cm and had a breech baby, all hell broke lose and that poor intern was just huddled in the corner. I will never forget the look on her face. The intern came to see us in the hospital with our ob a few days after ds was born and she was like, "wow, that was exciting, wasn't it!" I still get the giggles about it. 😂
