Sooo this is a bit of a diversion from our typical banter, but as you all know, no one but our clinical comrades really gets how nuts this process is. Therefore, I'm crowd-sourcing my latest curve ball to my fellow soon-to-be-interns in hopes of gathering some grounding advice. Turns out i'm PREGNANT, and due within a couple weeks of when most of my sites start their training year (this wasn't exactly planned--we had fertility treatments to get pregnant with my now-toddler, so I never thought a surprise pregnancy would be in the cards!)
If any of my colleagues out there have words of wisdom for getting creative in terms of how to make life & internship fit together (general or specific; doesn't have to be related to pregnancy!) please lay them on me. I'm excited but totally unsure of how to wrap my head around what happens next...
