First Birth as Student

I attended my first birth as a student midwife yesterday. I am not allowed to perform any clinical tasks yet but it was an honor to just be there and witness this birth. I got to hand the midwife tools, compresseses and do the charting. I was asked to snap a few photos too. It just made me more anxious to learn as quickly as possible so I can actually tend to the mother and help catch. I am beyond blessed.
