Neonatal Resuscitation Classes

Krys flew in a DR from the states to teach us NRP (neonatal resuscitation procedures) this week. Here, Brianna provides PPV (positive-pressure ventilation) to the baby, as the assist, Beth, stands by for regular heart rate checks, as well as to assist in chest compressions if the heart rate drops below 60 bpm. Another classmate, Sarah, looks on as the examiner gives updates on the status of the baby, answers questions, and corrects procedure.

AND! FOr those of you who've been asking for an updated pic of the currently bUNtis (preggo) supervisor, Ate Estef (hOW beautiful is she?! and bIG! hapit na, ceguro..).

Tomorrow is yet another prenatal outreacH to Samal Island, Penaplata. Beth, Sabrina, and Shelley are accompanying me on the excursion... it should be a good time, as always! And, I'm jealous of everyone at home experiencing true "october" weather. Even though I love the fact that i can still make use of the pool just around the corner from our house! Much love <3

wowzers. ate steph might be made to be preggo all the time! I know she will groan if you tell her i said that, but serious! She has the "glow" and it's more than the extra sweat and hormones produced in pregnancy too! Haha. Please give her my love! :)
