Taken last week on the tail end of nights, during my glucose tolerance test (a test for gestational diabetes when you drink a super sugary drink–imagine tang with a cup of splenda–wait an hour, then get your glucose checked via blood draw). I have a bad habit of taking care of my glucose tolerance test post-night shift, as I did the same on my week of nights for OB when pregnant with the other nugget.
I can’t believe tomorrow is my last day of my peds sub-internship. AND I’m almost at 30 weeks gestation and the poor fetus is being neglected, as we’ve gone over nine weeks without photo documentation, and I’ve settled for snapshots in gritty public bathrooms in a science building.
Oh, the horror! Not taking pictures of the baby bump for so long! Somehow, I feel sure that you and the baby are fine. Otherwise, you would have noticed that something was wrong and gotten it taken care of in a red-hot hurry. Don’t worry. Revel in pregnancy when you can. You are a lucky woman!
ANNA!!!!! This sounds weird but I am about to begin my medical school career and my Husband and I have been having the inevitable “baby in med school” conversation. I would LOVE to pick your brain and ask you some questions if you are every avaiable. Please e-mail me anytime! Thank you so much for posting I know NO ONE who thinks I’m not crazy for thinking about having a baby during medical school and would really like some insight! Thank you! – Victoria
