  • Follow OBGYN doctor mom Danielle Jones as she takes call for 24 hours. Who will be responsible for the night-time wakings - work or one of her 4 children??
    (this call day ranks 3/10 on a doctor busy-ness scale...results may not be reproducible...)

      I spoke to my midwife about this and she said if I end up with a male doctor on the day I can ask to have a female doctor instead if it makes me feel uncomfortable. Not guaranteed but they will try their best. She also said that they will provide me with extra support if I need it and are offering extra appointments to check in with my mental health. Not sure if that happens everywhere but it's what my hospital is doing for me.

    "I wonder why do people watch these?"
    1) They think you're interesting

    3) They are actually considering going into the career field and want an idea of what kind of things to look forward to
    4) You don't curse, which, combined with #2, makes you somewhat of a rarity on UA-cam

      But UK system is very different. Usually a midwife is present by delivery physicians only when there is reason. Right? Or is It mandatory for OB to be present by every delivery?
      And BTW. I have a friend who is Ob-Gyn doctor and she start her weekend shift (once a month unless her coleagues have a problem) at 7 am on Friday and finished at 16pm on Monday. It is against the law But they dont usually deal with this stuff in Czech hospitals. The reason Why she is in job so long that they added a normal 8 hour shift to this weekend crazy shift. Its not “on call” she has to be whole time present in hospital. Responsible for Obsteric ward, gyn and even after birth and Ob-gyn emergency.

  • @PaMi89
    @PaMi89 5 років тому +107

    I'm an OB/GYN too in Spain, and it is so different for me to see a call day like this. In my hospital we are required to stay inside the hospital for 24h (public hospital) and we are required to attend every single birth that comes our way (no assigned doctor to patient, you get the on call one) so it is VERY different. Most of the normal vaginal deliveries are handled by midwives, so we just come in for anything out of the ordinary (I still like to keep an eye on everything progressing normally since I am in the hospital anyway). However, in my hospital we are 2 OB/GYNs and 3 CNMs on call during the full 24h so it is usually not too bad. I just got off a 24h call and we had 4 deliveries total (1 vaccum) and a lot of ER consults. We do have a resident most days, so they do most of the procedures and I just get to supervise them.
    PS: I agree with the hormonal IUDs, my patients are usually the happiest with them if they understand what they are getting before the insertion. The weather thing I'm not really sure, but I used to joke with a colleague about actually collecting data on full moon nights and people coming in for their water breaking, just as a joke lol

    Actually I believe that the whole “your water can break due to changes in barometric pressure” is a real thing...I went into labor with my daughter last September two weeks early due to us getting the leftover remnants of a hurricane. The hospital staff told me that four other women also went into labor that same day because of the weather.

    Okay, I watched this video months ago and I remember you were seeing people in clinic and on call and I remember thinking, gosh wouldn’t that conflict if someone goes into labor while you have appts. I’m pregnant with #2 and currently sitting in the visit room waiting for my OB and they’ve shared that she was called away for a delivery at the hospital down the block and I immediately remembered this video. Instead of feeling put out at being un seen today I’m so thrilled that someone else is having a baby today and emotional at the idea that even when things conflict in this way it’s seriously for the best thing ever. Dr’s, midwives and nurses that help bring babies into the world are serious hero’s.

    I’m kind of curious on how you deal with patients with severe anxiety around pelvic exams and Pap smears. I have extreme anxiety around these exams and usually have to work with my therapist weeks before a gyno exam or procedure in order to be able to get through it. I’ve fortunately have had mostly very patient doctors and nurses but I’ve had one doctor who did a surprise uterine biopsy on my witch kind of set my progress around my anxiety back.

    I got Mirena about 3 months ago now. I naturally have awful super heavy periods that are very painful. Got on the pill to help with that when I was probably 13, after being on it for a few years it just wasn’t controlling my periods like it used to. Then I got the implant which did not work for me at all, I bled for 6 months. 1st month I had the iud I had my first on time period in probably 2 years. Have only dealt with a little spotting. Wish I would have just gotten the iud instead of the implant, my only reason for this was because I was freaked out about how it is inserted. Thanks to an amazing ob/gyn at my local health department it was a breeze! Love that you are out here educating us!

    Thank you for explaining the IUDs, I’m waiting for a consultation with the endometriosis specialist (the wait lists in Scotland are a year + some places mostly because you can count the number of them on one hand in the country). My primary care docs been really great at dealing with things, I’ve been on the contraceptive pill (so many of them) but nothing much is working much anymore. No ones really bothered explaining it to me, I didn’t realise it was so easy to put in and take out which puts my mind at rest, I was scared of getting something that if it really doesn’t work we couldn’t get back out easily. So thanks!

    When I got my IUD, it was THE WORST. I got home and an hour later I threw up from the pain. I made the mistake of getting it the Friday before my cousins wedding (next day) that was a 4 hour car ride away...that was the worst car ride ever full of cramps and pain, and as I cant take NSAIDS, tylenol didn't help. Thank god for Zofran though!! I made it through the wedding (woo) but had to call it quits halfway through the reception I was in so much pain. The car ride back on Sunday was just as bad, but it slowly got better though the week.
    But here I am 2 years later, and I LOVE IT. So, the beginning sucks, but the result is worth it. Yay for no periods!
