After years of only going to a female OB-GYN because she "got it" I was forced to switch to a male, because that was the only fertility doc in the area, and then his partner who got me through the rest of the pregnancy was male. I was a wreck about it, and then I met them. <BR/>I found that the male doctors, because they hadn't ever been pregnant or given birth, were a thousand times more gentle, sympathetic, and kind. They knew they had not experienced physcially what I was going through, and their kindness was what kept me going. <BR/>Don't be worried that you don't know how to show someone how to deliver a baby, or be pregnant, just because you are a guy. I'm sure you are going to be just fine. <BR/><BR/>(ps, I wish my pediatrician's office had a male nurse! When my son gets older, he would have a role model to look up to!)Ambulance Mommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15602860084060880271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2663635933104564488.post-68151067166366082282008-12-02T21:41:00.000-08:002008-12-02T21:41:00.000-08:00Love your blog and can't wait to read more!Love your blog and can't wait to read more!Future Trauma Nursehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09539836882612475616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2663635933104564488.post-1866667522087576542008-12-01T13:38:00.000-08:002008-12-01T13:38:00.000-08:00You're wonderful!

I have read several posts back and you write well and with clarity and purpose. <BR/><BR/>I hope to enter nursing school in about a year. I am in my pre-reqs now.

Some people say they see God in near-death experiences. I say, how can one witness a birth and NOT understand there is something so much bigger at work...<BR/><BR/>I'm really glad to have found your blog. You're the first actively blogging male nursing student aside from myself that I've run across.Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00243748655669695310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2663635933104564488.post-21223366285684473092008-11-28T13:28:00.000-08:002008-11-28T13:28:00.000-08:00Love the blog, Macho Nurse!Love the blog, Macho Nurse!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
