Exciting times, delivered my first baby last night on the labour ward at about 3AM on Sunday morning! After a normal labour (patient brought to labour ward 2 weeks post-dates) para 1 + 0 woman I was able to assist in the delivery of the baby and the placenta with two midwives present in the room. The midwives are all fantastic, all of them have been really welcoming over the past week which has really helped. There was some post-partum haemorrhage, probably caused by trauma to the vagina during the delivery. Blood pressure and haemoglobin levels were closely monitored and the patient made a full recovery. Carried out checks on the placenta for completeness, presence of both the amnion and chorion, and also presence of three blood vessels in the umbilicus. Also was present in theatre earlier in the evening for to witness a forceps delivery.
