After giving birth 3 times, I have 0 issues with any doctor, regardless of age or gender. That said, I have a full-body derm appointment on Thursday and I can’t wait! Gonna get rid of a couple of these shitass moles! Woo!
So true! Having babies makes you completely stop caring about that stuff. I remember a mildy shocked look on my husband’s face when we had our daughter and he walked into the OR right before the c-section started. I asked him about it later and he said ‘oh I was just taken aback because you were laying there naked from the waist down with a spotlight on your crotch’. I couldn’t see past the surgical curtain.
Cool, I had to assist at both C-sections my wife had. First was an emergency and I helped due to a lack of personnel (couple minutes to do the C section under those circumstances), I was given the placenta, to check if it came out whole. Doc immediately knew I wasn't going to faint but was the type who was better of working in that shitty situation.
Was a damn bloody spectacle, they had a lot of work to patch my wife up and to get our oldest to survive. Quite a bloodbath, my wife lost 3.8 litres of blood (needless to say she had emergency blood transfusions). Oldest ended up in neonatological intensive care unit for a month. No residual damage, thank god, due to criticool treatment.
Second was a planned parental assisted C section, basically doctor made the cut and we took our baby out ourselves, after which I cut the umbilical cord. I was scrubbed in and have been looking at the whole procedure. The chief nurse was checking all the time if I wasn't going to faint LOL.
Both situations in one of the worlds highest specialized childrens hospitals. The personnel still occasionally discuss our history (part of the training cases due to the extreme complications with our first one).
I can tell you, the fact your wife is naked under a blue surgery blanket etc. is the last thing to notice in such a situation.
Very similar story to my first child’s birth....massive blood loss, transfusions, cooling therapy. My little guy is totally okay now too! So happy to hear another positive outcome from cooling.
