YEEESS!! Finally i found a mom in med school. I'm a first year med student (almost done) and a mom to a 3 year old :) everybody tells me i shouldn't be studying medicine just because I'm a mom? lol ok. It's like 3 times harder but kids copy what you DO not what you SAY, i want to be able to say "yes i had my son when i was 16 years old but that didnt stop me from having dreams and reaching goals at the same time I'm being the best mom i can be for my kid" actually he is my motivation everyday and there's nothing better than hearing his sweet little voice going "mommy doing homework? can i do homework too? i love you mommy" he sits next to me and just cuts my old notes or just plays with my pens and stuff.. best feeling ever. I know the message i'm passing on to him is that education is important, having dreams and goals is important and you CAN do everything you want if you really want it.

I'm pre med and currently applying for some research positions which is exciting but incredibly stressful! sometimes it gets to the point where i just procrastinate for the whole day which stresses me out even more. But then i watch your videos and see you working so hard and then i become instantly motivated! Keep creating awesome content :) love you!

There's so much LOL! But seriously I would say just try your best to not beat yourself up if certain things don't necessarily work out the way you had originally planned aka don't be so hard on yourself, give your body as much time as possible to recover, remember that "FED is best" for little one and do your best to enjoy all the milestones and changes your little angel will be going through. Take joy in your blessing and blissful journey into and through mommyhood❤️ One more thing, if you're not already receiving this everyone, mothers or not, will provide unsolicited advice, try your best to take it all in stride and know that your decision is the ultimate and most important one. 😊best wishes with everything! Also, do your best to make time for YOURSELF! Happy mommy = happy baby. If that means taking an extended shower, reading a good book, or working out, go ahead and do it (whenever you can fit it in of course). I still struggle with all these things I mentioned especially the last point LOL

I am a clinical dietitian and, if it helps at all, I had my son 5 weeks before I started my dietetic internship and grad school. It really just comes down to planning/time management and having a good support person/supporting spouse- you can do it mama! I think the sweets craving is just a boy thing, with my son I CRAVED sweets sooooo bad, but with my daughter I craved salads, vegetables, and savory everything.

You sound just like me. I had 3 kids and I waited getting the epidural until I absolutely needed it. With my third child, I got it WAY too late and had her before it kicked in so I felt EVERYTHING! Ah! But I'm still alive. Haha! It's scary and you feel like you're gonna break every bone in your body, eeeesh, but it really is worth it. You'll understand that feeling soon, but hopefully your epidural kicks in in time. I got to have all three babies "naturally." I felt too blessed. Congrats!

Don't be scared of c-sections. I've had 2, and the recovery was literally nothing the first time (just needed Advil for a few days) and about 5 days of Advil the second time. My sister had a vaginal delivery and had a much worse recovery than I did. Not all c-sections are bad recoveries, so don't worry if you need one.

I can only speak to my own experience, which was 2 c-sections with very easy recoveries. Not every c-section is a bad recovery. My sister had a terrible recovery from a vaginal delivery so those aren't always a great recovery either. Either way you are going to have some healing to do, but I just didn't want her to be terrified that a c-section necessarily means a tough recovery. For me it didn't either time, and several of my friends had similar experiences.

Great video :) i was wondering if you could talk about any doubts or questioning you might of had about going to med school during your premed years. I know that it is a common feeling to have doubts or being anxious about pursuing med school, but i was wondering about your personal experiences with being unsure or anxious about your future and what advice you would offer others dealing with pre med anxiety. Thanks:)
@drjennale

To attend medical school you are sacrificing many things. You spend your prime years studying and unable to hang out with friends, you are burdened financially, and most of us put off starting a family. This can cause anyone to become anxious about dedicating their life to medicine but I believe that it is also for these reasons you should know for sure you want to attend medical school before pursing it. I always say - get as much exposure as you can. Volunteer at a hospital or clinic. Shadow a doctor. Find a mentor. These things will give you a better understanding if medicine is really the right path for you. Good luck!

Hey! I actually came across your channel because I spoke to a friend of yours on a forum and asked her questions about being a mom in med school and she said you could help! I’m now obsessed w your videos! The thing about me is, I didn’t have a support system out of high school (I was a teen mom) so I didn’t think I could make it through med school. I’ve spent years since trying to figure out where I fit and it always comes back to wanting to be a physician. I’m 29 and just now going back to school. I have three kids, currently pregnant and I know we want another one in a few years as well. Do you think there’s too many things against me to make it through med school especially given my age? I just can’t think of anything else that I would rather be! Also, in hindsight, when is the best time to have a baby during school? Thank you so much for taking the time to read this! 😊

Sometimes i feel my makeup is not as good as i prefer but we all know during medical school sleep is a luxury so i pretty much only give myself 10-15 minutes to look decent (not look like i don't get enough sleep) everyday.

I’m in my 2nd trimester, I’m going into nursing school. My husband works from home n occasionally goes to the office so my brothers n mother live 10min away so they can babysit. We have a lot of hosp work placements 3 in each year here in the UK. I’m hoping to study from home during maternity n when I go back to uni instead of 4 days I’m gna try to opt for 2 days attendance. It was never a right time for me b4 I was working 6 days a week then was at uni ft to finish my bsc. During the second year of Nursing I’m hoping to add on my Msc. So I decided during this summer break why not get preg I’m getting old I don’t want to delay it forever until I need ivf. Some ppl have it 15-18, I’m massive looked like 5m at 5 weeks. Morning sickness is mad, swollen feet n back pain is a killer on top of that sleepless nights giving me lack of energy. I do eat healthy n take all my supplement.

In my nursing program, the professors encouraged us to wait as long as possible to get an epidural if we're going to get one. The epidural numbs the area which makes it harder for the mother to feel how to push, ultimately prolonging labor. They told us there was a correlation between epidural use and prolonged labor. What are your thoughts on this? Is it true?
@drjennale
@drjennale 7 жыл бұрын
+comingalong slowly Yes this is true, you want to be in active labor before getting the epidural. At the same time, there does come a point where the patient is too far along and would not be able to get the epidural.

omg! thats so awesome happy for you girly! :) I want to wait until i'm done with med school to have babies but I will be 30 :// So idk when the best time to start a family will be. My hubby would be able to stay with the baby bc he can work from home and so would my mom but idk how i could juggle residency/med school with being preggo or having a baby >

+Piinkstar17 There will never be a good time. Because after residency you will be expected to work - hard to take time off when you start a new job. Life doesn't stop just because you start med school so just enjoy the journey! You'll be surprised to see what you are capable of 🤓

I went to the ER for appendicitis, found out i'm 3 months pregnant! I had a "fake period" and two negative tests early on, so I had noooo idea.. I thought I had diabetes because i was so hungry, thirsty and peeing all the time. lol. Unfortunately I'm due before my internship ends :(

Hi Jenny, I'm super sorry if this question is overly personal but at what age did you start medical school and at what age did you finish your first ms1 year? Im going through a hard time because I thought I was going to be able to apply this ccle after taking a gap year but now I have to wait again until next cycle and I'm just really bummed out because I can't help but compare myself to my other female friends who are already starting medical school 😔 Thank you and love your vids and your cute baby!!!

Can I ask what an audition rotation is? I'm going into med school this fall but I have never heard of that!
@drjennale
@drjennale 7 жыл бұрын
+Alyssa Christine Audition Rotation are like Sub-I's (sub-internships). You do these early in your fourth year at the hospitals/programs you wish to do residency at - this allows the residency programs to get to know you and possibly gives you an advantage while applying. Congrats on getting into med school!

Hi! I’m also a first year osteopathic medical student. I have no kids yet, but I would like to start a family soon. I was curious, how do moms in medical school afford having a baby during school? My boyfriend is also in medical training. Thank you! ❤️
