2nd week of Paeds DONE. Sorry to disappoint you WL, I'm actually enjoying it VERY VERY MUCH! Haha. Started off with neonatology which I think is interesting albeit SUPER DIFFICULT. One simple symptom can mean a hundred million differentials. Or the fact that reference ranges for everything is different for EVERY HOUR of neonatal life. Or how my brain gets fried after a few hours of listening to babies cry (seriously all you need is one neonate crying and suddenly the entire ward starts up).

But I love examining all the babies and finally being able to do the Moro reflex (dunno why I have this obsession with the Moro reflex) hehe. And thank God i've done O&G before Paeds. Makes everything easier.

Can't wait for next week! Paeds cardiology. FINALLY. Tetralogy of Fallot. YAY. Interacting with children older than 28 days. WHEE.

Oh and Happy Ramadhan to all Muslims!

HAHA. It's okay, I'm glad you're having a better experience in paeds than I did!
I agree with you - neonatology is quite interesting but it's difficult like hell because any symptom can mean any diagnosis.
Well,Paeds cardio is gonna be a blast. Dr Sharifah teaches so well.
Happy fasting to you too!
