I'm one of those midwives that keeps statistics. I write birth stories. I keep logs.
I do it so I can remember. I do it so I can learn. But mostly I do it because it's fun.
Today as I was writing down the ridiculously short birth story from this morning, I realized I'd passed a milestone.
Yep, today I caught my 200th Sudanese baby!
It was a brilliant birth. The mother went into labor at 5 am, arrived at the clinic shortly before 7 am, and delivered at precisely 7:02 am.
I am glad she made it in time!
Side Note:
It's my 200th catch in Sudan, my 315th catch in total, and the 488th birth I've attended. But who's counting? :- )

Does that mean you are seasoned as a midwife yet?

ReplyDeleteWe're counting with you! So proud. And if you ever come back to the United States, consider moving to L.A. so you can catch any future babies I might have. :)
