When I arrived, one patient was about ready to push. With all my observations & chartings out of the way, I was allowed to assist. It was harder then I thought…so many things to do, in short amounts of time! Thankfully, the birth had no complications, & Joy, Lizzy, & Makayla took turns helping assist me, or walk me through what to do.
I gave the mother an injection – my first one on an adult & two injections to the baby boy. I have found it to be much easier to give shots to humans then goats!
Makayla – the Primary midwife for this birth….. she is a great instructor!
Congratulations on your first assist!

Please explain,.... what was harder than you thought? Being in that position or actual duties?
