One night on call, an MO related to us her funniest experience as an O&G HO.
She was going to sew up the episiotomy for a lady.
HO: Sorry mdm, just a small prick and I’ll be done sewing…
Woman: WAT?!?! A small prick did THIS to me!!!
[episiotomy = a diagonal cut along the edge of the birth canal to avoid unwanted tearing/ripping during childbirth, it has to be sewn up after the delivery]
