Original post by Soon2BMrsD
So as you all now im a nursing student and just about finished with school! Well i'm doing my Labor & Delivery rotation this week at southside and well its boring cuz were only allowed to observe! So today the doc came in to see my patient and her baby and said that he would be doing a circumcision so my friend and i were so excited that we would get to see some action... (as a side note im normally very squeemish, but seem to have overcome it since being in school) so we go in he gets started and i start to get that cold sweat, ringing in my ears, going to barf feeling so i step out of the room to get some fresh air and WAMMO... i PASS OUT right in the hall wall.. it was SOOOOO EMBARRASSING!!! I CANT BELIEVE THIS JUST HAPPENED! Smelling salt and all. as soon as i came too there was like 10 nurses around me and i woke up hysterical laughing and they were like OH MY GOD ARE YOU OK??? so i told them that i knew it was coming which was why i had left the room but thought i could let it pass.
So needless to say NO MORE CIRCUMCISIONS FOR ME!!!! tomorrow i was supposed to go to see a live brith.. i think i'll be passing up my turn! What i dont know wont hurt me, ignorance is bliss as far as im concerned!!
Just thought id share my embarrassing story with you girls and you could get a good laugh for the day!!

This weekend FH and I went to a bris. He's a nursing student too, and has worked at a hospital as a Nursing Assistant for years and he LOVES watching gross stuff. Anyway, it comes time for the circumcision and he can't even look in the general direction of the baby. I said to him, 'I thought you liked watching stuff,' and he answered, 'NOT stuff like THIS!!!!!'
Glad you're okay.

Im a Nurse At the Neonatal ICU and I have to see circs all the time. I could see how some people cant see it. They dont give pain meds right at that point but they do numb the area with lidocaine or with a cream called EMLA so the babies dont feel it as much. Sometimes they are good with a pacifier and some sugar water. Just make sure you dont go into the OR I was fine in nursing school but the smells in the OR just made me so dizzy. I think thats something all nursing students go through.
