Please get vaccinated… if not for yourself for those around you. My parents refused to get vaccinated, caught covid, passed it to my daughter. They’re fine, but now she’s in the ICU preparing to be intubated. Please, PLEASE. I cannot stress this enough.
Before bed, we did the flashlight on the belly trick to see if little man would kick and start moving. It worked and BOOOY did he kick back hard! It was all fun and games until now, 2 hours later, I’m actually trying to fall asleep and he is using my uterus as a punching bag..
ICU Capacity numbers don’t capture the wave of patients on floors who would have been ICU Status a year ago who simply aren’t sick enough to occupy an ICU bed. High levels of FiO2, noninvasive ventilation, DKA, more cardiac drips...
Med surg friends, how are you doing?
I know this is an unpopular opinion but I do NOT like bbq. Being pregnant has not changed that but Conor keeps making it for me anyway and tonight he said “you might not like bbq but I’ll be damned if this kid *pointing at my belly* doesn’t like it so here is some pulled pork!”🙃
My friends and I have spent all day dissecting our schedules to find one single free week where we can squeeze in a get together this summer. Poster children for making time for the ones you care about. 🤍
On this weeks episode of “new pregnancy pains” : round ligament pain. Oh also the constant hip pain that makes it impossible to sleep comfortably! 🙃 where are the women at who enjoy pregnancy? I just wanna talk.
