Re: Embarassing midwifery moments! About the only thing I can remember is the first c/section I was in, doctor opened mom and a tiny fist shot out. My eyes got pretty big and I think I said, "Oh cr*p!" cause I just wasn't expecting that. Anyhow, the dad got a little worried thinking my reaction meant something was wrong and I was pretty embarrassed. I was just supposed to be observing and all the other surgeries (in the reg. surgical dept), there was never any family so I forgot about that.
That's pretty funny about the blood pressure story. I could very easily see myself doing something like that....
