Gotta Catch ‘Em All

29th October 2017 0 comments Article Phillipines Blog

Today is Sunday so this morning we went to church.

After church we went to a Korean restaurant for lunch which was the second time I’ve had it and it’s so delicious <3

When we got back the midwives said ‘get your gloves on there’s a baby coming!’ so I went and caught my second baby! Didn’t even have time to put my scrubs on, although I had time to put my gloves on properly this time…

the filipino midwives like to birth the head themselves

After this I changed into scrubs and then gave a baby a bath – he was very good and didn’t cry at all! Even gave me a hint of a smile when I was washing his hair.

Unfortunately this afternoon we found out that Rebecca is too ill fly home safely tomorrow morning 🙁 The doctor wants her to wait 48 hours and for her fever to break so we’re praying she’ll be able to go home soon! Nothing worse than being ill away from home.

This evening we went downtown to watch some traditional filipino dances which were so cool and SO impressive!
