We have the privilege of organising our own elective placement at the start of our third year. We have chosen to go to Nepal to gain an insight into how midwifery care is practised and accessed.

how cute are the babies here......................


Hello England (sorry for the delay did start this blog yesterday and after 30 minutes we had a power cut). So we survived our first shift on the birthing unit at the hospital, started a bit slow and we stuck out like two sore thumbs, but then observed a few deliveries. Spoke to some very friendly staff including an SHO type doctor who conducted the first delivery we observed, very interesting the different practises and how strong Nepalise women are! Kiran treated us to lunch and we had some more delicious moomoos and tea. After mouching around and having drinks in the rain we had the best curry ever which i feel we will re-visit again, so yummy. Tomorrow is are day off and were planning on going into Kathmandu................ keep you posted take care Laura and Sam xxx
