Tagging at MCH Clinic

I have been tagging at Maternal and Child Health clinic for 3 weeks. I saw different kind of pregnant mothers in my clinic. For some women, the pregnancy is just another unplanned pregnancy, expected to have another kid in their house. For some other women, the pregnancy is what the partner has been wanting and waiting for 10 years. Finally, it’s the first baby and first child in the house. For some other women, the pregnancy is a mistake. After battling within themselves, they decided not to make another mistake in their lives and willing to keep the baby and raise them in the future. For some other women, they didn’t make it, the embryo or the foetus didn’t make it, they failed.

Whichever kind of pregnant mother you are, it doesn’t affect me. I still can’t relate to your stories about the backache you have, or abdominal cramps, or morning sickness, or swollen hands or legs, or loose stool that you have when you are reaching the due date of your pregnancy. I can just listen to your stories, learn about your experiences and make sure you and your baby in a good health. I wish I could give you good advices but I can’t. I’m sorry because I’m your doctor, not the other doctors.
