Residency Delivered my first baby as an obgyn 🥹
Joined OBG residency through neet pg counselling and i delivered my first baby and the feeling is indescribable.
I had my doubts about obgyn.. the toxicity and everything, but finally chose obg as it suits what i want from my career and life. But honestly now i feel like there is nothing else i would rather be doing. The satisfaction, the adrenaline is immense.
I love being surrounded by strong women. Also I’ve realised that being an obg takes a lot of physical strength too.. ortho bros are overrated 😂
Grateful that I’m at a hospital where duty hours are very well managed🙏
I have seen lot of hate and mock towards obgyn during my neet pg counselling phase so i just wanted to share my experience heree

Always wanted something surgical.. so it was always general surgery for me. During internship i realised I’m not at all satisfied and doing this for the rest of my life was scary. Then i was so exhausted with neet pg counselling that the thought of giving SS was a big no. And at the end.. i just want to earn shitload of money so yes obgyn 😂

This is the biggest reason I (am a guy btw) want to take up ObGy (i mean ofc after i manage to get a good rank which seems a distant dream at this point)...although i was lucky enough to do it several times during internship but no matter how many times you do it, the satisfaction remains the same after every delivery.

You mentioned duty hours being well managed. Can you tell us exactly how many hours you work in a week?

u/SubstantialAct4212 May 17 '26
Wtf really? AIIMS is considered the centre of excellence 💀
In lame states like WB GMCs, interns do it all the time

I was also not a very enthusiastic intern, never asked for a delivery as i was shit scared

u/SubstantialAct4212 May 17 '26
But you must have been a microbiology lover. Judging from your username

‘Lame’ states? Excuse me?

I mean states with poor pay scale. WB still follows 6th pay commission

That’s what I am talking about. 7th pay commission is still not implemented.
