Yeah Chiqui , you are so right . May be I need to handle stress without being stressed out  and Thanks for your kind words , I will ask my husband to make me dinner today as I am special  .. Hehe . I am sure you would be such a sweet and a mature mom and ofcourse a great doc .
I had applied in IM and FM , mostly in midwest states. Waiting for good news on the match day. I hope your son is doing better now and you are enjoying this time with your family before residency starts.

Taurus: I will keep my fingers crossed for your match. Thanks for asking about my son- he is doing much better.
Ummah: How are YOU feeling? I applaud you for having the guts to have a third child. But I sure can appreciate why you are going to bed every night in tears. Hopefully things will become a little more manageable soon. I wish there was something I could do to help make things easier. All I can think to say is - don't try to do everything yourself - you are human. Get as much help as you can, for as many things as you can, from wherever you can get it. Sounds like you need just a little more rest. Until you can get some, receive a hug and some well wishes from a far away friend . . .me.

chiqui.... I am starting to fall in love with you! (just kidding) but really seems like you have the very perfect words at the right time for all of us...
Uma I also offer my help if you need it.... really I am praying that this third baby will be your biggest blessing yet... maybe the only other thing I can add to chiqui's comment is something that I heard from mary poppins (my daughter's favorite character) "if you reach for the stars all you get is the stars... but if your reach for heaven you get the stars from it" so Just look at the bigger blessing and things will fall in place for you very soon.
And taurus... I am sending you my MOM POWER!!! you will see we will both match... you know? we are to sexy to be left unmatched

Anagarcia: Mouse kidney???? No mi'ja. I though I had it bad having to make soup from all the bony parts of hens and cows for my son (who, by the way, turned 13 months yesterday and has been 100% better since we eliminated dairy, wheat, fruit and rice from his diet). Yesterday I had to purchase 3 live hens, find someone to kill them, pluck them and clean them and then spend the afternoon boiling them down into stock to cook potatoes and carrots in. Now - before I go to the hospital, I have to cook up the 3 little hen livers. Not exactly mouse kidney. Not exactly foi gras either. What can I say. These are the things you do for your kids.
Have a nice day everyone.

LOL.... you really made me laugh chiqui....I think I will not complain anymore about my mouse kidneys ... I rather do that than start from scratch for a hen broth
it is truth you end up doing very unusual things to make sure your kids stay healthy and happy. so CONGRATULATIONS on you success with the hen broth and really on getting your child back to health... it is great that you found out what it was.
and the other ladies? how is the nause going these days? anybody is working with any other animal organ?
Arlete .... how are things going?...

Everything under control up here. Going to the gym almost every day. Giving frozen chicken to the kids (no live hens for me, chiqui!). Talking about hens, my father raises some, names them, then kills and eats them, that is so barbaric for me, but he laughs at my reaction to it! I mean, does he really need to even name them?  I asked him if he goes: "Today, I am eating little Mary for dinner"!!!! He only laughs...
I am still waiting for the CS results on the 26th, but I am very confident about it. Already studying for step 3, love those ccs!
Kisses for all you, moms!

Shaina:
I didn't need anything. I am a cardiologist in Brazil and my subspecialty is arrhythmias and pacemakers. My mentors in Brazil were teachers to my boss at Cleveland Clinic Florida, so he knew I would be able to be an EKG tech (and edit holters and evaluate pacemakers and ICDs, like I did). I got this job through the Internet. So I know nothing about the couses for it, I am sorry... I worked only at the clinic side, because at the time I had a 7 month-old, a 2 year-old and a 5 year-old, so working only during weekdays and no holidays worked perfect for me!
Good luck! Thanks for the compliments.

Puchpal - I just posted a joke on the psych forum day before yesterday!!!! I read it every day though. Like I said, I've gotten kind of superstitious and don't want to do or say anything to "jinx" myself.
Moms and moms to be - stay cool over the weekend. Gotta run - pediatrician appointment this afternoon.

Oh Puchpal - cry me a river! Remember a few months ago when you were pooping bricks because you didn't get very many interviews???? Didn't you then proceed to get a ton of interviews and everything worked out OK. I think the force is with you. You will probably match without having to go to scramble. I predict you will match within your top 5 choices. And on the off chance that you don't match, you will almost surely get something in the scramble - if you got as many interviews as you did, it means that in general, the programs consider you a viable candidate. So relax and have a few margaritas this weekend. A little tequila never hurt anyone. I will keep my fingers crossed for you. I hope you all have your fingers crossed for me to because, although I prematched, if my stupid ass university doesn't come through with my paperwork on time I may lose my spot, which would cause me to probably rupture an aneurysm or something, leaving my poor children motherless.
Anagarcia - breath. The universe wants you to be an OB. At least I do.
Taurus82 - relax a little. If the palpitations don't go away, go get them checked out.
Arlete - hi!
Shaina: Nice to have you with us.

Hi, chiqui!
Shaina: I didn't understand your question. I worked from 8 to 5, weekdays, no holidays, during 20 months. Is that what you asked? I made $11 an hour, barely paid the daycare, but it was worthy!

Dear Ana:
It's done, it's sealed... I'll pray all your symptoms will be resolved after seeing the result, what about that? I put the Arbor Mist in the fridge yesterday, it will be so good to celebrate for you! Did you iv for other specialties too?
