Today in class we talked about babies. Babies. I’m officially scared to death of them. It seems like there’s so much that can go wrong.
- They can swallow balloons (and we learned that once a baby swallows a latex balloon, there’s no way to get it out and they WILL suffocate to death).
- They can choke on their food.
- They can aspirate their vomit.
- They can die while they are asleep (SIDS).
- They can fall off the bed when you’re not looking.
- They can get really sick before they’ve built up a good immune system.
And those are just a few of the things we talked about…
EEEKK! I’m afraid that I’ll be in a constant state of anxiety when that time comes. There are several people in my class that have kids, and I wonder how they do it. How do you find time to take care a baby, go to class and clinicals, study, and still have time to sleep? Who knows!
In other news, it is beautiful outside today! It’s amazing how much the weather can affect my mood. When it’s nice all the time, like in the spring, I take it for granted, so I guess it’s good that God made the seasons; otherwise, I wouldn’t appreciate the nice weather so much!
We are going to a wind ensemble concert tonight at Moody. Travis has to go to two concerts for his music class, so I’m tagging along. Tomorrow night we’re going to a wedding in Birmingham. And for the rest of the weekend, I guess we’ll be studying. At least Travis will. I’ve got my first test a week from Monday, so I may go ahead and start reading for that.
Hope you all have a fantastic weekend too! :)
