I’m pretty sure “The Good Doctor” is about a doctor on the autism spectrum. I think it’s worth mentioning. It explains his bedside manner issues. (although, as a chronic pain patient, I have experienced much worse. It’s one thing to not be aware that you are upsetting a patient. It’s a very different thing when you’re angry at a patient for being upset.)
Plus the language barrier is "jilted english"(monotone and robotic sounding yes and very stereotypical). Some words may be put in strange context when your processing sucks and your just trying to adjust to multiple stimuli at a time. "Angry with someone for being sad? "That's why I always say men in this community are better in the kitchen cooking my meals cause they are too soft."
Rianna Majzoub I was in the icu after a botched appendectomy for two months and the two male nurses they had were about a thousand times more empathetic and patient than the ladies, two of whom (I believe the total was around 7 or 8 for the duration I was there, it’s a small hospital) constantly trash talked patients within earshot (including myself) and one time made fun of an elderly lady who had to be put in my room due to lack of beds (I was a 20 yo guy) for her first day because she started crying out of shame when they washed her while I was in the room and couldn’t even turn around myself. My pain meds didn’t work properly because my liver basically burns through them like oxygen which we didn’t know at the time (they assumed I was a druggie) so I was constantly in pain every half hour or so after they administered the last dose until they added the next and I was told by multiple of the female nurses to suck it up and behave like a man or not be a child. One of the guys sat down with me and talked about his travels to China to get my mind off it and the other taught me breathing techniques. Maybe keep your ducking stereotypes to yourself and leave the male nurses who get enough shit already alone when they are trying to help patients.
Sashimi - I don’t think anyone here is criticizing male nurses (or are you speaking to a general trend you gave seen?) In my experience, nurses of all kinds tend to be more understanding. The doctor will see you briefly and make recommendations, but a nurse will actually be there when you’re in pain or throwing up. A nurse will likely be the person you talk to you on the phone when you call with a medical question. I think in general, they are closer to the suffering.
All these nurses came out of nowhere once he was done and looked at him like "good job buddy" but like where were you a couple minutes ago when he needed someone to do CPR?
@@jenniferarchibald7590 the way she was talking about it I dont think she knew. I've never seen the show but saw a preview for it that explained he has autism. Not gonna lie, as a mom of a kid with sensory input issues the part where everyone was talking at once and he was getting overwhelmed really got to me. It seems like am emotional show!
While Mama Doctor Jones was saying "Give the Lady her baby!" I was screaming, "Look at all the people who could've assisted in that delivery but didn't--but are now somehow in the room to deliver applause?!?!"
@@moonlightflame7 Right. Plot convenience, of course. But I mean, he called someone to do CPR on the baby, right? He could have had someone else there with him from the very start so that he didn’t have to turn around and leave both patients alone even once (who knows what could have happened, and yes, both should have died while he was creating that contraption unassisted). I’m a nurse so maybe that’s why it strikes me a bit differently... but I know it’s a show and i “don’t need to get all serious about it.” It’s just absurd still. They’re all great actors though.
@@angel_cat Yep your totally right. they should've planned things out a bit more before he started the operation. But it makes for more entertaining TV right. lol.
i have a medical condition that makes my pulse high all the time and it’s so hard for me to actually register that a pulse of 100+ on a patient who’s laying down is bad
NICU nurse here!! I was cringing real hard at "the baby's not breathing! Start CPR!" That is incorrect! When babies come out not breathing, there is a set of guidelines to follow to help the baby begin breathing and CPR is the LAST thing you try. While compressions are huge for an adult that is not breathing, a newborn usually needs respiratory interventions first. If he followed these guidelines, he would have found the meconium aspiration (which caused the baby to stop breathing) and would have been able to correct that instead of wasting time with the CPR. Also, meconium is usually something that happens with full term or late term babies, not 36 weekers. It could happen, but unlikely. I know it's just for entertainment though and it seems like a thrilling episode!
They sure didn't freak out about my son not breathing when he was delivered, and nobody called for CPR. It's funny how tv shows will make things inaccurate on purpose just to add some extra drama.
The medical writers on these types of shows are general docs meaning anything to do with babies or NICU is always super inaccurate I always remind myself of this to keep my sanity intact
@@vybezD Not really. The nurses "stimulate" the baby to make them cry by drying them vigorously with a blanket. If that doesn't work we rub them harder along their spine and sides or flick their feet. If that still doesn't work then the baby probably requires respiratory interventions like giving oxygen or suctioning
@@MamaDoctorJones We all feel for you and care for you. I hope you know we all really do think every single health care worker right now is a freaking hero.
I want to tell a storyyyy: My mother had a miscarriage before she had me and she told me that you have to see a doctor to clean out the tissue after the miscarriage, so she did that and after a while she got pregnant with me. After giving birth the placenta didn't come out and because the doctors that removed the tissue after the miscarriage did a shitty job, there was still some tissue left that ripped something, as the placenta finally came out. So my mother began bleeding and she was about to die. But then a gyn came in and she wanted to save my mother. She succeded in doing so, but my mother was incredibly weak, she had lost 3 litres of blood. Thanks to that gyn that didn't give up, I still have a mother😌
Elizabeth Duncan Agreed!!!! I was thinking just give the baby to her while you save her life. There have been miraculous results in terrifying situations by bringing mother and baby together (like skin to skin).
Fun fact: I was actually nicked on the cheek during the C-section that brought me into the world. The doctor was so scared that my parents would be upset/sue, but they didn't care. As long as I was healthy, they were happy. So there is a tiny band-aid on my cheek in my newborn pictures, but it never even left a scar.
When I had my daughter they knicked her on the top of her head. I didnt even notice. My sister actually pointed it out. I thought she was crazy and thought it was just birth stuff because she hadn't been given a bath yet. Then she was bathed and the nurse saw it and profusely apologized. By this time she was 4 days old and perfectly healthy so I didn't care at all.
It is important to remember that Dr. Murphy in the show is diagnosed with ASD. His bedside manner is due to the ASD... he is not being cruel, he is just being honest which is what he has learned is best for him when dealing with high stress situations
She never said that he was being cruel, just bad bedside manner. Which btw people with ASD can improve (and varies between people with ASD). Being honest is good but there’s also better ways of delivering the same information
@@kstar1489 as a new doctor and a first bith ever seen he probably is super stressed and is just doing what he learned to. In real life he would learn from this and next time he would be way nicer and better :)
@@kstar1489 Thank you!!! People like to make excuses and quite often baby people with ASD (not saying that's what OP was doing) and it's not very helpful to pretend that everything they do is alright. ASD is the reason, but like you said calling out bad behavior or things that can be improved upon is very important.
I think he earned those few moments of holding the baby... must've been kind of a miraculous accomplishment to him too, I would let the man marvel peacefully for a few seconds there... I get she's super anxious and impatient to have it given to her, but mama bear will hold her baby for the rest of her life.
I love your facial expressions, your saying “this show isn’t very accurate”, when your face says “what idiot wrote this crap?” So polite with a smack down added.
I wish Dr shows would focus more on the medicine aspect (even if it isn't accurate) than focusing on character personal lives and development. The show ER back in the day was the perfect mix. I like realism more than drama
For the information of everyone here, they are talking about 2 very different scenarios. Dr. Mike is referring to shows that always show using defibrillators instead of doing chest compressions. Defibrillators are only indicated for ventricular fibrillation and pulseless ventricular tachycardia and definitely DEFINITELY NOT for asystole (flat line). That is taught to everyone in medical school, regardless of what country you're from.
Ugh. I was thinking, just wait until after the election. Regardless of the outcome, stuff's gonna get worse. I read a troubling article predicting the second civil war based on some algorithms that accurately predicted the timing of the first one when given the data.
I love that you mentioned that there are circumstances in which a PPROM patient could be kept pregnant for several more weeks. PPROM is terrifying and if you look at a lot of the information online you're almost always told that 24 hours is the maximum amount of time your water can be broken without risking infection. Thank you for making that note (love, a 24 week PPROM, 33 week delivery mom).
I stayed pg for nearly a week after water broke! Delivered at 33 weeks, more so because baby was moving less and not due to risk of infection; they wanted to keep me pg 2 more weeks. So glad to have MDJ educating us on the real story!
My sister in law water broke and they delivered the baby 6 weeks later she had just had a baby February 1 and the 2ed one where her water broke early was born December 1 and was delivered at 36 weeks
When I PPROMd at 31.0 weeks they were going to keep me inpatient until 34 and induce me! But I ended up going into labor 6 hours later and they had to do an emergent csection due to fetal heart decels
@@ameliasandoval8663 it's definitely a case by case thing when it comes to PPROM. I ruptured at 24 weeks and was in the hospital on modified bedrest until delivery. Our overall goal was 34 weeks but every single week we made it we celebrated because that was one more week of growth we were able to give him. We were worried I'd deliver within that first week and after we reached that milestone without me going into labor we were able to breathe a little. I delivered at 33 weeks because of placental abruption.
Dr: “Don’t press too hard or you’ll crush the heart” Mama Jones: “umm, that’s the point?!” That made me laugh out loud haha this video of you reacting might be one of my favourite
COMPRESS NOT CRUSH! Compress & release- it bounces back into shape. Crush- it just stays crushed. Also pretty easy to break an infant's ribs with a heavy hand. Always start light then apply more pressure if needed- don't assume that all people have the same sense of touch! My uncle, who was always generous & kind, would literally pet his cat so hard the cat's eyelids were pulled back with every stroke. Not enough to hurt because the cat did not run away but definitely uncomfortable to watch.
@@deborahhanna6640 good on you for trying to ehhhhhm school DOCTOR mama Jones here on the difference between compression &crushing, my gosh HOW could SHE not know this wow..............I'm sure it felt good for you👌😒☺, but hey ho I trust the lady, she knows her stuff & seems to be doing a fantastic job in all aspects of her life judging by her content, I would have really really appreciated her on all 10 of my pregnancys!!💖
Almost done with nursing school and in my OB semester, after seeing the births I could hear everything you said making everything make sense! THANK YOU!!🙏🏼 In one of your videos you said how the placenta is worrisome if it takes longer than 30 minutes. The OB turned around and asked me that and I was like 30 minutes! She’s like “either that was a good guess or you’ve been studying...” THANK YOU!😂😊
Postpartum/Nursery Nurse here and OMG the inaccuracies!! I was cringing watching this... she abrupts during an ECV but you have time to place a spinal?? What was that makeshift Bakri balloon business, close the damn incision! And don’t even get me started on the baby’s “resuscitation” 🤦🏼♀️ shows like this are why the general population has a big misunderstanding of how hospitals work, especially codes/emergencies, no way mom and baby would’ve been okay after that mess..
I was traumatized after my c section (it was emergency but it went extremely well) so imagining the post partum experience here has me pale and sick 🤢 luckily just a show but omg.
I lost blood during dental surgery & afterward they thought I might be anemic. Then I got clots in the stitches. That was enough trauma for a lifetime- not even in the reproductive areas- & they show her bed raised & her SITTING UP even further!? Not being too exhausted to even hold her baby?! Pure escapist fantasy!
My husband hates when I watch medical shows bc I’m always grousing about every little inaccuracy. Thank you for saying it all so I can just sit back and laugh!
Q LauraQ mine too! Drives him crazy. He always tells me it’s just a show who cares? Ummm I do. Why not do a little research and make it accurate? Why have false information.
I had to have my water broken. Then when my daughter's head came out, more sprayed everywhere. I'll never forget the doctor and nurse diving out of the way of the supersoaker. I have huge respect for the L&D nurses.
The doctor is autistic, that's why his bedside manner is slightly "off". It may not be perfect but he is a good doctor in the show and an excellent surgeon.
It's a stereotypical representation of autism, a guy who has autism and not as good bedside manners. This doesn't apply to most autistic people and doesn't include most women either which often display autism differently. I hate they did this, I get people all the time that reference the show thinking "this is what autistic people are like"
@@alyahm1102 nobody is dismissing that as being real. I apologize if my comment came off like that. What I'm saying is autism is a wide spectrum and I wish there was more representations of people on different parts of the spectrum. In 2013 the autism spectrum was radically changed to encompass an entire group of people that weren't able to get diagnosed at all or even recognized as having autism which now they are thankfully which is a miracle. I want to see more people represented who have non-typical autism because society often learns from movies and TV shows and this has badly affected many minorities in autism because they're discriminated against for not having real autism because they're so underrepresented society often assumes if your not like the good doctor or the autistic kid on the umbrella academy who is non verbal then you don't have autism and that reasoning goes back to media representations who mainly only represent those 2 kinds of people. I'm being inclusive, not exclusive, I wasn't trying to exclude anybody from the asd spectrum.
@@junehanabi1756 The truth is that streotypical autism is realistic. Shauns "bedside" manners are an actual interpretation of how some actual autistic people are they sometimes don't encounter other people's feelings or don't take them in consideration but they don't do it intentionally.
He is also diagnosed with savants syndrome so is incredibly intelligent, this is explained in the show and there are also other characters through the shows with autism with different traits not the "stereotyped" traits including a young female patient
Yes! Give mom her baby! That was an issue in my first birth. There was stool in the fluid, so they had to take baby and make sure he didn't aspirate meconium. He didn't, but since they had him they figured they should weigh him and give him a vitamin K shot and whatever else meanwhile I was repeating over and over: "Give me my baby" and the nurse just kept replying "Soon enough" and "Be patient". Unless they need emergency care, give mom the baby!
Shanna Mae I didn’t get to hold my firstborn till I got to the L&D room after my c-section. They just showed him to me and they gave him to my husband and then they both left for some reason. 😔 I made sure I got to hold my daughter while they stitched me up. My first c-section was slightly more emergent though.
@@mx.e7972 wth? Wth? What the actual hell? Sorry if that sounds rude, but... O. M. G.! WHAT? And also wondering, can holding your baby be covered by USA insurance?
@@mx.e7972 they charge you for natural birth too. I got charged for my last two children. I first birth they just took my son to weigh him and stuff and wouldn't give him back until my husband said something.
I'm so glad that I'm not watching this without your commentary. I'm 24 weeks pregnant and so scared of needing a c section. Just hearing "this doesn't really happen" makes me feel a lot better.
If you do end up needing one, just remember that they're doing it because it's the safest option for the scenario you're in and everything will probably be fine. You want the right type of delivery for your personal situation and you won't feel the pain 🙂 Congratulations, btw!
KelseyToast my mum had three c-sections. One emergency and 2 planned. All three of us are healthy and so is my mum. Just know you’ll be okay and so will your baby. If its needed, then it’s the best option for you and your baby. My boyfriend was also a c-section and early and he’s healthy as well. I will you all the luck and love in the world for you and your baby
Congrats! My midwives told me that nothing will be done to me without my consent. I kept my birth plan very very simple and flexible. At the end of the day what you want is your baby same and sound with you. How they get there is only part of it. It’s also important to have someone with you who will be calm and help you make decisions.
I was really scared of it too. Then I had two c sections, an emergency c section and then a planned one with my last baby. And both are among the best experiences I've had in my life. If I'd had another baby I would not have worried about it one bit. Both babies were fine, too, as was I. The one downside was that it took some time before my milk got going.
I love that you gave a shout out to the ObGyn in the hallway for absolving the baby CPR volunteer of any guilt he might have felt. It's so touching to know that there are doctors who have such a highly developed bedside manner. I wish you had been my Obbb!
And that was just a kid - supposed to be in high school. So I'm so glad she said that to him. He looked so scared and horrified that he might have hurt the bay. :(
Personal experience here: I hemorrhaged out, badly, during my 2nd delivery. I’m a little fuzzy, but I do remember at least one bp reading of 40/30. I was PISSED they wouldn’t give me my baby while the medical personnel were busy stopping my hemorrhage. I may have been in real peril, but that didn’t stop me yelling at everyone to give me my baby. This included yelling at my husband, telling him that if they weren’t going to give me my baby, then he needed to go look at her and tell me if she was okay. In other words, give that woman her baby! In 15 years, she’s still going to remember the rage she felt when people kept her baby from her, LOL.
I'm an RT who works often in the NICU (though not exclusively). On all high-risk deliveries, our team is called. The team is a Neonatal doc (either hospitalist/attending or a fellow or all of the above depending on what the call is for) one to two RNs and an RT. We are all NRP certified. We've had plenty of c-section mec babies delivered. Often they aren't breathing, but DRY AND STIMULATE AND SUCTION are always the first steps. Of those, I've seen maybe maybe 3 needing to be intubated and I don't think I've seen any that needed chest compressions. Maybe one. The whole "let's give CPR" before checking heart rate (no) and then the baby starts to cry and it's like 'oh all fine now' isn't how it works. As long as the heart rate stays above 60, we aren't doing chest compressions. On a normal pregnancy (ie with no fetal conditions) we aren't even going to start chest compressions until at least 1 minute of life.
When I had preeclampsia my blood pressure got pretty high, but I never realized how dangerous it could be because my OB and nurses were calm and calmly let me know what they would be doing to combat it. They woulda had to knock me out for that c section because I refuse to be awake for that 😂😂
Ok I imagine that must be true as well but I just liked the moment very much as it was portrayed... But I understand the mother was very impatient, especially after a delivery like that, that's totally natural🤷♀️.
Now I cannot stop hearing the song, 'Englishman in New York' but the lyrics are "I'm a uterus, I'm a lady's uterus: I need to find a man to poooooork... " it gets worse from there. Please don't sue me Sting.
Having had preeclampsia 4 times, I love that you are educating people on it! There is so much miss information on it, which can be so stinking confusing when you are going through it.
Sky Clark I’m gonna say absolutely. Just went for a check up and was getting vitals while chatting with the doctor. Apparently my heart rate started going up when I was talking about my anxiety and how it’s gotten worse. So in this situation it’s probably normal for it to be high. Lol
My last OBGYN appointment I got in a dumb fight with my husband and then drove through some heinous traffic. My blood pressure was very high for me. They had me sit in a chair for 20 minutes and relax. Dropped right back down.
@@TheEmmakathryn I've had mine shoot that high over stressful situations. In my experience with my anxiety I'm my own worst enemy. I'm not saying it's healthy, but can you imagine that being your doctor and your confused and scared, you look to your doctor for confidence. However, he looks more scared than you. I can see it happening just from the stress of your situation.
I was having a root canal done and I was nervous, my bp went up. They let me relax and calm down for a couple minutes, came back to recheck it and it was fine. Stress does a lot with bp and pulse 😥
please react to an episode of one born every minute, real UK maturity wards. I would love to know what some of the differences are between American practice and UK
As someone from the uk I would love if she did that! Also I think the main difference is here we have midwives which are licensed regulated medical professionals who have to take a specific course to call themselves midwives whereas in America it's not a regulated field so they don't use them as much.
I think it's good that they are willing to show that someone on the AS can be a doctor. I didn't like the inaccuracy either. However, I really wish that the media would give attention to women on the AS. Females with ASD are not like males with ASD. It makes it harder for us to be accepted and even takes longer for us to be diagnosed.
Can you do Outlander season 1 episode 13 when Claire delivers Jenny’s breach baby 👶🏻 it’s a very touching episode in general. And you’re doing a great job 👍🏽
Do you know what really riles me up? That youtube will happily approve videos from beauty gurus where at various points (especially if it's a blog video) they could talk about the threesome the had last night and various other explicit sexual things (and we all know what generation of young people are watching those videos)...but they want to censor this kind of informative video? What the actual F youtube!
@@deborahhanna6640 it really doesn't have to do anything with that. Advertisers (companies) don't want their ads on controversial topics or I guess something related to taboo topics such as this may be
Non-SEXUALIZED vaginas might be. Just because treating it like an actual body part. She is not showing any photos- let alone any explicit photos. She is providing education where- men prefer ignorance.
My niece was born in the way you were describing (inhaling meconium and aspirating. Her cord was also wrapped around her neck). Her mom had to be rushed into an emergency C section and Emma spent a few days in the nicu. Miss Emma is now 15 and is doing absolutely fantastic. Her parents had a second baby 3.5 years ago and Savannah Bannanna`s birth wasn't as dramatic. Haha.
You mentioning how quickly stuff can go bad after a vaginal birth is so true. After I had my 3rd baby I was holding him and trying to get him to latch. We took pictures, I called my dad and best friend. And I was just looking at him and all of a sudden felt TERRIBLE. I started yelling to take the baby to my husband who looked so confused and I sat up and realized I was bleeding A LOT. I lost 2 liters of blood very very quickly.
How funny was the inaccuracies of that program! 🤦🏼♀️. But also scary. Women watch these shows and then worry when certain words they’ve heard are said at their own deliveries. Mamadoctorjones please give these shows a helping hand 🧐🤣
“Hey I like to DIY... just not in the operating room” 😂😂😂😂 that’s my favorite quote ever! I’m so glad doctors don’t like to DIY in the operating room 😂😂😂
Oh yeah. Aside from just that, my second swallowed tons of poop, fluids, and blood, and vomited it all up about an hour after birth. It was like the exorcist. So much vomit. I was scared to death, but the OB kept reassuring me my son was fine, and she had seen this multiple times. Something they never tell you that can happen, before you give birth!
Deliveries are rarely the quick, clinical, clean processes seen on TV, where the mother is shown with perfect makeup and hair ten minutes after the baby's been delivered. Or so I understand.
My baby inhaled some meconium so they had a peds resident on standby, nothing too intense luckily! But it was reassuring how quickly they all reacted-and the maternity ward was busy + it was Canadian thanksgiving weekend
Mama Doctor Jones you are just adorable. “Don’t talk about the ‘V’ word,” lolol. I wish TH-cam would understand the educational content is so important. I wish someone like you had been around when I was having babies.
As I remember, they couldn't get an OBGYN in because the ER was under quarantine. Getting her to advise through the window was literally all they could do (and they were hoping not to have to deliver because of that.)
The hospital was experiencing a weird viral outbreak kinda like Coronavirus rn but way worse and way more deadly and they had to quarantine the emergency room. The only staff that were there were the ones who were in the ER when the quarantine began. So that’s why the OB/GYN was just watching through the window. I wouldn’t risk my life to enter an area with a possibly deadly virus.
DeannaMarie i see... I don’t watch tv so I didn’t know the premise of this episode... and the context presented in little snippets is vague. That being said, I think it would’ve been beneficial to call the obgyn sooner. She could’ve advised through the window before the situation reached a critical point requiring more drastic actions. 🤷♀️ but that would be much less interesting and I’m not a show writer 😂
R Alexandra That was my thought too. If an OB/GYN was available to consult on the emergency c-section, why didn’t they consult earlier about the higher than normal blood pressure? And every other dodgy plot point afterwards? And if they had an OB/GYN present, why wasn’t there a paediatrician present to advise about the baby too? I could go on and on. I’m not a doctor or medical professional (but I’ve had two very emergency c-sections) but the clips MDJ showed made my skin crawl and brain scream at the decisions being made.
Hey Mama Dr Jones, I love your videos! I was wondering if you could do a video about self-inflicted C-sections? There's a case of a woman in rural mexico in 2000 who had to perform her own c-section, and she and the baby survived. Her name is Inés Ramírez Pérez. They also do a self-inflicted C-section in the film Prometheus from 2012.
I love this show. But since I'm 12 yrs old, I never know what's happening. However, when you explained this episode, I surprisingly understood everything so thank u!
My daughter was breach when I went into labor at 36 weeks and 3 days. They gave me this giant thing called a peanut. With how I had to lay on it, I felt like I was dying. It hurt so bad trying to move her. After an hour or so, we had a safe delivery, 6 pushes and she was here. Healthy, and happy. Went home 3 days later! Love your channel!!
This video showed up as a recommendation and I clicked it, glad I did. I don’t watch medical shows (my one exception was HOUSE MD), but I love watching real doctors do reactions to medical shows. I like that you point out what is possible, improbable, and NOT GONNA HAPPEN. And you make it so easy to understand. I’m going to watch more.
Just got off work and I’m sitting in the work parking lot to watch this! I seriously LOVE your content so much!! Thank you for taking your time to make these videos for us!
Watching this while being in a worldwide quarantaine makes me wonder how pregnant women, especially my sister who is due in a couple of weeks, are coping with this whole situation.. I'm sure it must be a terrifying time for them. It really sucks that hospitals are only allowing one person in hospital rooms with patients. Like I understand why they're doing so, but this will be the first baby in the family and I'm sure my sister wants at least my mom there too. Hopefully by the time she gives birth this whole lock down will have passed, although I highly doubt that.
I don’t know how to answer but I do hope everything goes alright. Stay calm and healthy, and wash your hands! Hopefully it dies down a bit so Atleast two people can go in the room. Good luck to you and your family. ❤️
I’m currently 35 weeks pregnant right now. It’s a stressful time, but I’m trying to remain positive. I really wanted my sister to be there for me giving birth, but only my fiancé can be there now. It kind of sucks because my sister lives 2 islands over from me(we live in Hawai’i) and she can’t fly to come see me and the baby..
I feel this episode so much. I was in a sort of similar situation, obviously I was fine afterwards or I wouldn't be typing this and my baby was completely fine. So I had a completely normal labour and vaginal delivery. My complications came afterwards. I was taken up to the maternity ward post delivery, hubby and a nurse were with me. I needed to go to the toilet and luckily hubby came with me because as I sat down I fainted. All I remember was being carried back to the bed, the maternity nurses rushed in, ER nurses were called in. My OG/GYN was called back to the hospital (this was at about 2am) I past out again. When I came to I was in ICU and my blood pressure was 60/40. Over the course of 2 days I was given 4 - 5 bags of blood and 6 - 7 liters of saline. I am just so grateful I changed my mind on having a home birth. I would not have made it to the hospital in time
I love your reactions the best, because even when what's happening is SO terrible, you still stop and empathize from their side of things. A lot of reaction videos are just someone trash talking the episode. You explain what's wrong without hating on anyone and that's fantastic!
My daughter was nicked with a scalpel during my CAT 2 emergency cesarean. This video is so informative as i always wondered wether i should have questioned why or how that happened. But i was 36 weeks with a rapidly aging placenta and had been in labour for 18 hours beforehand so i never thought of it. To hear that being nicked with a scalpel can be just an accident by a surgeon doing everything right does make me feel a little better about not questioning it
This was so stressful to watch, I don't think I could watch this show. You do such a good job of explaining it all. As a nurse, it's so hard to watch medical shows now because I know what's wrong and what's not accurate. It ends up stressing me out instead of just relaxing to watch a show.
You are my inspiration to become a NP in gynecology! I’ve had a lot of problems (Endo, PCOS, herpes) and I want to help others with fertility and with the stigma behind herpes and other similar issues. I am so excited and really look up to you!
@@evadim8446 It's an endocrine disorder where women have a variety of symptoms from slow metabolism, hair loss, trouble losing weight to difficulty ovulating/conceiving to troubles establishing breastfeeding. I was diagnosed at 12 and it's been a long road to get my body to work properly!
I love channels like this, entertaining but super educational. You can learn a lot of super important medical stuff that you might never use, but hey, if you go into that field or become pregnant, you are covered. I love watching multiple different channels like this.
I was born via emergency c-section after I had defecated and was a few minutes from dying. I saw the doctor who called for the c-section to the done on the swedish news a year ago and that was a weird feeling for sure.
You rock @Mama Doctor Jones , thanks for making these videos even with the hassle of TH-cam. You have convinced this woman to purchase a "SCIENCE ISN'T PERSONAL" t-shirt :-).
This is hilarious to me. My boyfriend works on the show (in lighting, nothing to do with all the stuff that was wrong) so it's interesting to see reactions to it. Our neighbors who is a retired NICU nurse also commented on this episode getting things wrong, but she still likes the show overall. Just worked on an episode for next season that didn't seem very medically sound to me, though it wasn't obgyn related. I've heard the first season was better, but as it tends to go shows get popular and they care less about being accurate and more about ~drama~.
I started watching MamaDoctorJones when I found out I was pregnant 31 weeks ago! I’m full term now and honestly I’ve learned SOOOOO much about my body and the entirety of pregnancy because of her. I don’t have time to watch these tv shows because I’m binge watching labor and delivery videos 😂
Man, I just love you! I have zero plans to ever actually grow a human being inside of my body, but if I ever do happen to find myself pregnant, I am going to move to wherever you are long enough for you to be my OB/GYN and deliver my baby. Your intelligence mixed with your sarcasm/sense of humor just can't be beat!
I am SO GLAD you did this one! I was pregnant with my second when I watched this episode, and even though I have zero medical training I was like “Uhm...this is wrong.” First of all I felt like they had almost everything that could go wrong happen, and how they handled it didn’t make sense to me. Usually while pregnant I can’t handle shows with a stressful delivery or where something happens to baby (probably a bit of PTSD from my first baby’s SD), but this one I just kept laughing at 😬
Cool Buzz lightyear in the background!! Love your videos by the way! I already can't wait for your new video :D
And a carrot next to it xD
You won this one!! First correct comment on the tiny background friends. :)
Okay but where is it? Idk how to start looking for these things because I can never find them.
Even knowing it's there, I still don't see it 😂
moozzbvd Where? Double vision is not my friend in situations like this lol 😣
"c-section in quarantine" well that concept didn't age well now did it
Noelle H when she was talking about Ebola danger in the office and wondering if that ever happened.... welp that didn’t age well either 💀💀💀
Right? lol all was thinking was "little did she know...."
Broooo! Y'all are not alone, I was like um.. ta-dah it's happening
AHHHH IT DIDN'T
Yeah, this quarantine situation is gonna be stuck with us for a WHILE.
I’m pretty sure “The Good Doctor” is about a doctor on the autism spectrum. I think it’s worth mentioning. It explains his bedside manner issues. (although, as a chronic pain patient, I have experienced much worse. It’s one thing to not be aware that you are upsetting a patient. It’s a very different thing when you’re angry at a patient for being upset.)
Plus the language barrier is "jilted english"(monotone and robotic sounding yes and very stereotypical). Some words may be put in strange context when your processing sucks and your just trying to adjust to multiple stimuli at a time. "Angry with someone for being sad? "That's why I always say men in this community are better in the kitchen cooking my meals cause they are too soft."
Rianna Majzoub I was in the icu after a botched appendectomy for two months and the two male nurses they had were about a thousand times more empathetic and patient than the ladies, two of whom (I believe the total was around 7 or 8 for the duration I was there, it’s a small hospital) constantly trash talked patients within earshot (including myself) and one time made fun of an elderly lady who had to be put in my room due to lack of beds (I was a 20 yo guy) for her first day because she started crying out of shame when they washed her while I was in the room and couldn’t even turn around myself.
My pain meds didn’t work properly because my liver basically burns through them like oxygen which we didn’t know at the time (they assumed I was a druggie) so I was constantly in pain every half hour or so after they administered the last dose until they added the next and I was told by multiple of the female nurses to suck it up and behave like a man or not be a child. One of the guys sat down with me and talked about his travels to China to get my mind off it and the other taught me breathing techniques. Maybe keep your ducking stereotypes to yourself and leave the male nurses who get enough shit already alone when they are trying to help patients.
Chronic pain patient too here and I've had terrible doctors so one on the spectrum without great bedside manner wouldn't be a huge deal to me.
Sashimi - I don’t think anyone here is criticizing male nurses (or are you speaking to a general trend you gave seen?)
In my experience, nurses of all kinds tend to be more understanding. The doctor will see you briefly and make recommendations, but a nurse will actually be there when you’re in pain or throwing up. A nurse will likely be the person you talk to you on the phone when you call with a medical question. I think in general, they are closer to the suffering.
@@sallyvillarreal4294 I was reacting to Rianna, the first commenter above who essentially said men aren't suitable to be nurses.
All these nurses came out of nowhere once he was done and looked at him like "good job buddy" but like where were you a couple minutes ago when he needed someone to do CPR?
And they're meant to be in quarantine?
smoke break lol
Makes no sense
@@sweetdee8884 lol! That must have been it!
@@jenniferarchibald7590 the way she was talking about it I dont think she knew. I've never seen the show but saw a preview for it that explained he has autism. Not gonna lie, as a mom of a kid with sensory input issues the part where everyone was talking at once and he was getting overwhelmed really got to me. It seems like am emotional show!
While Mama Doctor Jones was saying "Give the Lady her baby!" I was screaming, "Look at all the people who could've assisted in that delivery but didn't--but are now somehow in the room to deliver applause?!?!"
I know! Like wth!? Weren't they on their own?
they were doing surgery on another person.
@@moonlightflame7 Right. Plot convenience, of course. But I mean, he called someone to do CPR on the baby, right? He could have had someone else there with him from the very start so that he didn’t have to turn around and leave both patients alone even once (who knows what could have happened, and yes, both should have died while he was creating that contraption unassisted). I’m a nurse so maybe that’s why it strikes me a bit differently... but I know it’s a show and i “don’t need to get all serious about it.” It’s just absurd still. They’re all great actors though.
@@angel_cat Yep your totally right. they should've planned things out a bit more before he started the operation. But it makes for more entertaining TV right. lol.
The quarantaine ended
MDJ: “her heart rate is 122 bpm.”
Me (who’s a vet tech and used to animals) “wow that’s low!”
MDJ: “which is high.”
Me: “oop.”
Saaaaame
I mean, it's high, but not dangerously so... running will increase your heart rate higher than that.
i have a medical condition that makes my pulse high all the time and it’s so hard for me to actually register that a pulse of 100+ on a patient who’s laying down is bad
@@Lucy-fn9rj right. My pulse is always so ridiculous.
High for an adult human, normal for an infant human, low for a newborn human, and low for animals ahah
NICU nurse here!! I was cringing real hard at "the baby's not breathing! Start CPR!" That is incorrect! When babies come out not breathing, there is a set of guidelines to follow to help the baby begin breathing and CPR is the LAST thing you try. While compressions are huge for an adult that is not breathing, a newborn usually needs respiratory interventions first. If he followed these guidelines, he would have found the meconium aspiration (which caused the baby to stop breathing) and would have been able to correct that instead of wasting time with the CPR. Also, meconium is usually something that happens with full term or late term babies, not 36 weekers. It could happen, but unlikely. I know it's just for entertainment though and it seems like a thrilling episode!
They sure didn't freak out about my son not breathing when he was delivered, and nobody called for CPR.
It's funny how tv shows will make things inaccurate on purpose just to add some extra drama.
Shit I really was almost dead at birth 😂 my mum has told me numerous times they ended up having to do cpr.
The medical writers on these types of shows are general docs meaning anything to do with babies or NICU is always super inaccurate
I always remind myself of this to keep my sanity intact
Do doctors still spank or pinch the baby to induce crying?
@@vybezD Not really. The nurses "stimulate" the baby to make them cry by drying them vigorously with a blanket. If that doesn't work we rub them harder along their spine and sides or flick their feet. If that still doesn't work then the baby probably requires respiratory interventions like giving oxygen or suctioning
MDJ: Chest compression, Chest compression, Chest compression
D.Mike: I approve

Me reading this comment two months after you wrote it
I want to tell a storyyyy:
My mother had a miscarriage before she had me and she told me that you have to see a doctor to clean out the tissue after the miscarriage, so she did that and after a while she got pregnant with me. After giving birth the placenta didn't come out and because the doctors that removed the tissue after the miscarriage did a shitty job, there was still some tissue left that ripped something, as the placenta finally came out. So my mother began bleeding and she was about to die. But then a gyn came in and she wanted to save my mother. She succeded in doing so, but my mother was incredibly weak, she had lost 3 litres of blood.
Thanks to that gyn that didn't give up, I still have a mother😌
That’s amazing!!!!
I’m happy for you and having your mama ❤️❤️❤️
That's intense omg! So glad you and your mum are alive
"Give the lady her crying baby! A miraculous recovery, and you're just holding it, like Simba, taking all the credit..." 😂😂💀
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Elizabeth Duncan LOLOLOLOL
?
simba LOL
Elizabeth Duncan Agreed!!!! I was thinking just give the baby to her while you save her life. There have been miraculous results in terrifying situations by bringing mother and baby together (like skin to skin).
Fun fact: I was actually nicked on the cheek during the C-section that brought me into the world. The doctor was so scared that my parents would be upset/sue, but they didn't care. As long as I was healthy, they were happy.
So there is a tiny band-aid on my cheek in my newborn pictures, but it never even left a scar.
That’s a cool little story. Thanks for sharing
My daughter was cut on her lower back during a breech C section and does have an inch long scar. :(
@@catiebea I'm sorry to hear that
When I had my daughter they knicked her on the top of her head. I didnt even notice. My sister actually pointed it out. I thought she was crazy and thought it was just birth stuff because she hadn't been given a bath yet. Then she was bathed and the nurse saw it and profusely apologized. By this time she was 4 days old and perfectly healthy so I didn't care at all.
My uncle has born via C-section and he was nicked in the butt :P
‘Hey, I like to DIY; just not in the operating room.’ 😂😭
Best. Line. EVER. 😂😂😂
"TOWELS & HOT WATER STAT!... & A GLUE GUN!" (I'm saving this one for ETSY.)
It is important to remember that Dr. Murphy in the show is diagnosed with ASD. His bedside manner is due to the ASD... he is not being cruel, he is just being honest which is what he has learned is best for him when dealing with high stress situations
Exactly Shaun is just bery blunt
She never said that he was being cruel, just bad bedside manner. Which btw people with ASD can improve (and varies between people with ASD). Being honest is good but there’s also better ways of delivering the same information
@@kstar1489 as a new doctor and a first bith ever seen he probably is super stressed and is just doing what he learned to. In real life he would learn from this and next time he would be way nicer and better :)
As someone with ASD, yes that's accurate! I had thought of mentioning that when I heard it.
@@kstar1489 Thank you!!! People like to make excuses and quite often baby people with ASD (not saying that's what OP was doing) and it's not very helpful to pretend that everything they do is alright. ASD is the reason, but like you said calling out bad behavior or things that can be improved upon is very important.
"I like to DIY, just not in an operating room" is a sentence I never thought I would hear.

I love your facial expressions, your saying “this show isn’t very accurate”, when your face says “what idiot wrote this crap?” So polite with a smack down added.
I wish Dr shows would focus more on the medicine aspect (even if it isn't accurate) than focusing on character personal lives and development. The show ER back in the day was the perfect mix. I like realism more than drama

I see we have very different opinions on how to handle this issue.
Tonight on WWE - MDJ verses Dr. Mike ! Ready......FIGHT !!! 😤
For the information of everyone here, they are talking about 2 very different scenarios. Dr. Mike is referring to shows that always show using defibrillators instead of doing chest compressions. Defibrillators are only indicated for ventricular fibrillation and pulseless ventricular tachycardia and definitely DEFINITELY NOT for asystole (flat line). That is taught to everyone in medical school, regardless of what country you're from.
"I hope I am never alive when the apocalypse is happening." LOL Currently living it.

Ugh. I was thinking, just wait until after the election. Regardless of the outcome, stuff's gonna get worse. I read a troubling article predicting the second civil war based on some algorithms that accurately predicted the timing of the first one when given the data.
lmao i was about to comment that
Yeah I was thinking that at the beginning with the quarantine scene.
I love how even in inaccurate shows you always look so happy for a healthy baby and mom. It's so sweet.
I love that you mentioned that there are circumstances in which a PPROM patient could be kept pregnant for several more weeks. PPROM is terrifying and if you look at a lot of the information online you're almost always told that 24 hours is the maximum amount of time your water can be broken without risking infection. Thank you for making that note (love, a 24 week PPROM, 33 week delivery mom).
Hi preemie mama! I have a 24 weeker myself from placental abruption. 💜
I stayed pg for nearly a week after water broke! Delivered at 33 weeks, more so because baby was moving less and not due to risk of infection; they wanted to keep me pg 2 more weeks. So glad to have MDJ educating us on the real story!
My sister in law water broke and they delivered the baby 6 weeks later she had just had a baby February 1 and the 2ed one where her water broke early was born December 1 and was delivered at 36 weeks
When I PPROMd at 31.0 weeks they were going to keep me inpatient until 34 and induce me! But I ended up going into labor 6 hours later and they had to do an emergent csection due to fetal heart decels
@@ameliasandoval8663 it's definitely a case by case thing when it comes to PPROM. I ruptured at 24 weeks and was in the hospital on modified bedrest until delivery. Our overall goal was 34 weeks but every single week we made it we celebrated because that was one more week of growth we were able to give him. We were worried I'd deliver within that first week and after we reached that milestone without me going into labor we were able to breathe a little. I delivered at 33 weeks because of placental abruption.
Dr: “Don’t press too hard or you’ll crush the heart”
Mama Jones: “umm, that’s the point?!”
That made me laugh out loud haha this video of you reacting might be one of my favourite
I thought it was kinda boring and my husband texted me today and said “this ones my favorite” 🤣 so thank you and you’re in good company
I literally had the same reaction.. 'BUT THATS THE POINT OF CPR!!'
COMPRESS NOT CRUSH!
Compress & release- it bounces back into shape. Crush- it just stays crushed. Also pretty easy to break an infant's ribs with a heavy hand. Always start light then apply more pressure if needed- don't assume that all people have the same sense of touch! My uncle, who was always generous & kind, would literally pet his cat so hard the cat's eyelids were pulled back with every stroke. Not enough to hurt because the cat did not run away but definitely uncomfortable to watch.
@@deborahhanna6640 are you a doctor? If mama Dr. Jones says that's the way then that's the way.

Almost done with nursing school and in my OB semester, after seeing the births I could hear everything you said making everything make sense!

She’s like “either that was a good guess or you’ve been studying...” THANK YOU!😂😊
Postpartum/Nursery Nurse here and OMG the inaccuracies!! I was cringing watching this... she abrupts during an ECV but you have time to place a spinal?? What was that makeshift Bakri balloon business, close the damn incision! And don’t even get me started on the baby’s “resuscitation” 🤦🏼♀️ shows like this are why the general population has a big misunderstanding of how hospitals work, especially codes/emergencies, no way mom and baby would’ve been okay after that mess..
I was traumatized after my c section (it was emergency but it went extremely well) so imagining the post partum experience here has me pale and sick 🤢 luckily just a show but omg.
I lost blood during dental surgery & afterward they thought I might be anemic. Then I got clots in the stitches. That was enough trauma for a lifetime- not even in the reproductive areas- & they show her bed raised & her SITTING UP even further!? Not being too exhausted to even hold her baby?! Pure escapist fantasy!
My husband hates when I watch medical shows bc I’m always grousing about every little inaccuracy. Thank you for saying it all so I can just sit back and laugh!

The doctor is autistic, that's why his bedside manner is slightly "off". It may not be perfect but he is a good doctor in the show and an excellent surgeon.
It's a stereotypical representation of autism, a guy who has autism and not as good bedside manners. This doesn't apply to most autistic people and doesn't include most women either which often display autism differently. I hate they did this, I get people all the time that reference the show thinking "this is what autistic people are like"
@@junehanabi1756 I know I am autistic too and I agree with all your points.
@@alyahm1102 nobody is dismissing that as being real. I apologize if my comment came off like that. What I'm saying is autism is a wide spectrum and I wish there was more representations of people on different parts of the spectrum. In 2013 the autism spectrum was radically changed to encompass an entire group of people that weren't able to get diagnosed at all or even recognized as having autism which now they are thankfully which is a miracle. I want to see more people represented who have non-typical autism because society often learns from movies and TV shows and this has badly affected many minorities in autism because they're discriminated against for not having real autism because they're so underrepresented society often assumes if your not like the good doctor or the autistic kid on the umbrella academy who is non verbal then you don't have autism and that reasoning goes back to media representations who mainly only represent those 2 kinds of people. I'm being inclusive, not exclusive, I wasn't trying to exclude anybody from the asd spectrum.
@@junehanabi1756 The truth is that streotypical autism is realistic. Shauns "bedside" manners are an actual interpretation of how some actual autistic people are they sometimes don't encounter other people's feelings or don't take them in consideration but they don't do it intentionally.
He is also diagnosed with savants syndrome so is incredibly intelligent, this is explained in the show and there are also other characters through the shows with autism with different traits not the "stereotyped" traits including a young female patient
" Hope I'm never alive when the apocalypse happens".
She jinxed it.
Yes! Give mom her baby! That was an issue in my first birth. There was stool in the fluid, so they had to take baby and make sure he didn't aspirate meconium. He didn't, but since they had him they figured they should weigh him and give him a vitamin K shot and whatever else meanwhile I was repeating over and over: "Give me my baby" and the nurse just kept replying "Soon enough" and "Be patient". Unless they need emergency care, give mom the baby!
Shanna Mae I didn’t get to hold my firstborn till I got to the L&D room after my c-section. They just showed him to me and they gave him to my husband and then they both left for some reason. 😔 I made sure I got to hold my daughter while they stitched me up. My first c-section was slightly more emergent though.

MamaDrJones: Chest compressions...
Dr Mike: Hmm.. I feel a disturbance in the force
I'm so glad that I'm not watching this without your commentary. I'm 24 weeks pregnant and so scared of needing a c section. Just hearing "this doesn't really happen" makes me feel a lot better.
If you do end up needing one, just remember that they're doing it because it's the safest option for the scenario you're in and everything will probably be fine. You want the right type of delivery for your personal situation and you won't feel the pain 🙂 Congratulations, btw!
Congrats on your pregnancy.
KelseyToast my mum had three c-sections. One emergency and 2 planned. All three of us are healthy and so is my mum. Just know you’ll be okay and so will your baby. If its needed, then it’s the best option for you and your baby. My boyfriend was also a c-section and early and he’s healthy as well. I will you all the luck and love in the world for you and your baby
Congrats! My midwives told me that nothing will be done to me without my consent. I kept my birth plan very very simple and flexible. At the end of the day what you want is your baby same and sound with you. How they get there is only part of it. It’s also important to have someone with you who will be calm and help you make decisions.
I was really scared of it too. Then I had two c sections, an emergency c section and then a planned one with my last baby. And both are among the best experiences I've had in my life. If I'd had another baby I would not have worried about it one bit. Both babies were fine, too, as was I. The one downside was that it took some time before my milk got going.
Could you do a review from an Ob/gym perspective of the pregnancy apps like “the bump” or period tracking apps like “clue”.
MELMUR4564 great idea!
Ooooo!!!! That’s awesome!!!!
Diapers AND coffee? As a mom of a 4 month old, NEED. 🤣
I love that you gave a shout out to the ObGyn in the hallway for absolving the baby CPR volunteer of any guilt he might have felt. It's so touching to know that there are doctors who have such a highly developed bedside manner. I wish you had been my Obbb!
And that was just a kid - supposed to be in high school. So I'm so glad she said that to him. He looked so scared and horrified that he might have hurt the bay. :(
Personal experience here: I hemorrhaged out, badly, during my 2nd delivery. I’m a little fuzzy, but I do remember at least one bp reading of 40/30. I was PISSED they wouldn’t give me my baby while the medical personnel were busy stopping my hemorrhage.
I may have been in real peril, but that didn’t stop me yelling at everyone to give me my baby. This included yelling at my husband, telling him that if they weren’t going to give me my baby, then he needed to go look at her and tell me if she was okay.
In other words, give that woman her baby! In 15 years, she’s still going to remember the rage she felt when people kept her baby from her, LOL.
I’m a L&D nurse and NRP certified and I’m screaming at this 😂 DRY AND STIMULATE, no chest compressions god!! I’m cringing
I'm an RT who works often in the NICU (though not exclusively). On all high-risk deliveries, our team is called. The team is a Neonatal doc (either hospitalist/attending or a fellow or all of the above depending on what the call is for) one to two RNs and an RT. We are all NRP certified. We've had plenty of c-section mec babies delivered. Often they aren't breathing, but DRY AND STIMULATE AND SUCTION are always the first steps. Of those, I've seen maybe maybe 3 needing to be intubated and I don't think I've seen any that needed chest compressions. Maybe one. The whole "let's give CPR" before checking heart rate (no) and then the baby starts to cry and it's like 'oh all fine now' isn't how it works. As long as the heart rate stays above 60, we aren't doing chest compressions. On a normal pregnancy (ie with no fetal conditions) we aren't even going to start chest compressions until at least 1 minute of life.
Also like 3 other nurses appear at the end?? why wouldnt they have been helping instead of the random guy lol
I’m nothing more than a first responder and I’m cringing for the same reasons.
Yes! Warm, dry, and stimulate! Then BREATHING! NRP is the medical exception to chest compressions.
@@pucksapprentice Yes! Yes! Yes!
When I had preeclampsia my blood pressure got pretty high, but I never realized how dangerous it could be because my OB and nurses were calm and calmly let me know what they would be doing to combat it. They woulda had to knock me out for that c section because I refuse to be awake for that 😂😂
I thought this was about covid 19 and didn’t realize this came out before we started quarantine. Mind blown

Now I cannot stop hearing the song, 'Englishman in New York' but the lyrics are "I'm a uterus, I'm a lady's uterus: I need to find a man to poooooork... " it gets worse from there. Please don't sue me Sting.

Having had preeclampsia 4 times, I love that you are educating people on it! There is so much miss information on it, which can be so stinking confusing when you are going through it.
Me sitting here 21 weeks pregnant with a scheduled C-section for November:
“Hmm, so that’s how things are probably going to go down.”
I hope you had a safe delivery and a healthy baby!
They scarred that woman for life 🤣
She's never having another baby again
funniest bit where they say her water broke, "how long ago,when?" They all turn around and her pants are wet.
I think everyone's blood pressure would be elevated in a stressful situation like that!
Sky Clark I’m gonna say absolutely. Just went for a check up and was getting vitals while chatting with the doctor. Apparently my heart rate started going up when I was talking about my anxiety and how it’s gotten worse. So in this situation it’s probably normal for it to be high. Lol
My last OBGYN appointment I got in a dumb fight with my husband and then drove through some heinous traffic. My blood pressure was very high for me. They had me sit in a chair for 20 minutes and relax. Dropped right back down.
That's very true, although 180/100 is very elevated.
@@TheEmmakathryn I've had mine shoot that high over stressful situations. In my experience with my anxiety I'm my own worst enemy. I'm not saying it's healthy, but can you imagine that being your doctor and your confused and scared, you look to your doctor for confidence. However, he looks more scared than you. I can see it happening just from the stress of your situation.
I was having a root canal done and I was nervous, my bp went up. They let me relax and calm down for a couple minutes, came back to recheck it and it was fine. Stress does a lot with bp and pulse 😥
please react to an episode of one born every minute, real UK maturity wards. I would love to know what some of the differences are between American practice and UK
As someone from the uk I would love if she did that! Also I think the main difference is here we have midwives which are licensed regulated medical professionals who have to take a specific course to call themselves midwives whereas in America it's not a regulated field so they don't use them as much.
I think it's good that they are willing to show that someone on the AS can be a doctor. I didn't like the inaccuracy either. However, I really wish that the media would give attention to women on the AS. Females with ASD are not like males with ASD. It makes it harder for us to be accepted and even takes longer for us to be diagnosed.
Woman on the AS here
i’m watching this when covid-19 is happening so that opening scene is almost like real life.
Can you do Outlander season 1 episode 13 when Claire delivers Jenny’s breach baby 👶🏻 it’s a very touching episode in general. And you’re doing a great job 👍🏽
And you'd get to watch Outlander😉🔥
OMG I'm watching outlander right now and it's amazing!!
Omg yes!!! Please do an Outlander video. ❤️❤️
Holy heck!! That's about my ancestors!!! I'd love to see the review
Yeessss! I love Outlander ❤
Do you know what really riles me up? That youtube will happily approve videos from beauty gurus where at various points (especially if it's a blog video) they could talk about the threesome the had last night and various other explicit sexual things (and we all know what generation of young people are watching those videos)...but they want to censor this kind of informative video? What the actual F youtube!
Google not youtube, youtube was bought out by google.
ThT makes even less sense- you can google the most BIZARRE stuff!
@@deborahhanna6640 it really doesn't have to do anything with that.
Advertisers (companies) don't want their ads on controversial topics or I guess something related to taboo topics such as this may be
Vaginas are not controversial.
Non-SEXUALIZED vaginas might be. Just because treating it like an actual body part. She is not showing any photos- let alone any explicit photos. She is providing education where- men prefer ignorance.
My niece was born in the way you were describing (inhaling meconium and aspirating. Her cord was also wrapped around her neck). Her mom had to be rushed into an emergency C section and Emma spent a few days in the nicu.
Miss Emma is now 15 and is doing absolutely fantastic. Her parents had a second baby 3.5 years ago and Savannah Bannanna`s birth wasn't as dramatic. Haha.
You mentioning how quickly stuff can go bad after a vaginal birth is so true. After I had my 3rd baby I was holding him and trying to get him to latch. We took pictures, I called my dad and best friend. And I was just looking at him and all of a sudden felt TERRIBLE. I started yelling to take the baby to my husband who looked so confused and I sat up and realized I was bleeding A LOT. I lost 2 liters of blood very very quickly.
I imagine that between being a doctor, being a mom, and a TH-camr you have like now time. Thanks for doing these videos. I've learned a lot.
How funny was the inaccuracies of that program! 🤦🏼♀️. But also scary. Women watch these shows and then worry when certain words they’ve heard are said at their own deliveries. Mamadoctorjones please give these shows a helping hand 🧐🤣
“Hey I like to DIY... just not in the operating room” 😂😂😂😂 that’s my favorite quote ever! I’m so glad doctors don’t like to DIY in the operating room 😂😂😂
Oh yeah. Aside from just that, my second swallowed tons of poop, fluids, and blood, and vomited it all up about an hour after birth. It was like the exorcist. So much vomit. I was scared to death, but the OB kept reassuring me my son was fine, and she had seen this multiple times. Something they never tell you that can happen, before you give birth!
Yikes!!!
Deliveries are rarely the quick, clinical, clean processes seen on TV, where the mother is shown with perfect makeup and hair ten minutes after the baby's been delivered. Or so I understand.
My baby inhaled some meconium so they had a peds resident on standby, nothing too intense luckily! But it was reassuring how quickly they all reacted-and the maternity ward was busy + it was Canadian thanksgiving weekend
Who else watching this during rona?
it's rona season baby
*its corona time*
Nicholas McGuire I so am lol
Mama Doctor Jones you are just adorable. “Don’t talk about the ‘V’ word,” lolol. I wish TH-cam would understand the educational content is so important. I wish someone like you had been around when I was having babies.
"Give that lady her baby!"
New t-shirt!
Yaassss!!!
“Please page an obgyn”
Okay but why didn’t they do that to start? Lmao. This show is ridiculous
As I remember, they couldn't get an OBGYN in because the ER was under quarantine. Getting her to advise through the window was literally all they could do (and they were hoping not to have to deliver because of that.)
The hospital was experiencing a weird viral outbreak kinda like Coronavirus rn but way worse and way more deadly and they had to quarantine the emergency room. The only staff that were there were the ones who were in the ER when the quarantine began. So that’s why the OB/GYN was just watching through the window. I wouldn’t risk my life to enter an area with a possibly deadly virus.
DeannaMarie
i see... I don’t watch tv so I didn’t know the premise of this episode... and the context presented in little snippets is vague. That being said, I think it would’ve been beneficial to call the obgyn sooner. She could’ve advised through the window before the situation reached a critical point requiring more drastic actions. 🤷♀️ but that would be much less interesting and I’m not a show writer 😂
R Alexandra that is true. But I guess it’s not good tv! 😁
R Alexandra That was my thought too. If an OB/GYN was available to consult on the emergency c-section, why didn’t they consult earlier about the higher than normal blood pressure? And every other dodgy plot point afterwards? And if they had an OB/GYN present, why wasn’t there a paediatrician present to advise about the baby too? I could go on and on. I’m not a doctor or medical professional (but I’ve had two very emergency c-sections) but the clips MDJ showed made my skin crawl and brain scream at the decisions being made.
Hey Mama Dr Jones, I love your videos! I was wondering if you could do a video about self-inflicted C-sections? There's a case of a woman in rural mexico in 2000 who had to perform her own c-section, and she and the baby survived. Her name is Inés Ramírez Pérez. They also do a self-inflicted C-section in the film Prometheus from 2012.
That movie was awful. AWFUL! But the real person case sounds pretty interesting.
"I hope I am never alive during the apocalypse"
😳 Oof
I love this show. But since I'm 12 yrs old, I never know what's happening. However, when you explained this episode, I surprisingly understood everything so thank u!
I really hope you react to an episode of Private Practice soon! The main character is an OBGYN so nearly any episode would have content for you!
Yes, there are definitely some dramatic episodes of private practice she could react to.
Haha you’re cracking me up. As soon as i heard that the nerve block was in i was like “HOWWWWW!?” 😂
My daughter was breach when I went into labor at 36 weeks and 3 days. They gave me this giant thing called a peanut. With how I had to lay on it, I felt like I was dying. It hurt so bad trying to move her. After an hour or so, we had a safe delivery, 6 pushes and she was here. Healthy, and happy. Went home 3 days later! Love your channel!!
This video showed up as a recommendation and I clicked it, glad I did. I don’t watch medical shows (my one exception was HOUSE MD), but I love watching real doctors do reactions to medical shows. I like that you point out what is possible, improbable, and NOT GONNA HAPPEN. And you make it so easy to understand. I’m going to watch more.
"They are in quarantine for some reason."
I can think of a reason.
But that wasn't the reason!
Someone came in the er with an airborn contagious disease
Just got off work and I’m sitting in the work parking lot to watch this! I seriously LOVE your content so much!! Thank you for taking your time to make these videos for us!
Watching this while being in a worldwide quarantaine makes me wonder how pregnant women, especially my sister who is due in a couple of weeks, are coping with this whole situation.. I'm sure it must be a terrifying time for them.
It really sucks that hospitals are only allowing one person in hospital rooms with patients. Like I understand why they're doing so, but this will be the first baby in the family and I'm sure my sister wants at least my mom there too. Hopefully by the time she gives birth this whole lock down will have passed, although I highly doubt that.
I don’t know how to answer but I do hope everything goes alright. Stay calm and healthy, and wash your hands! Hopefully it dies down a bit so Atleast two people can go in the room. Good luck to you and your family. ❤️
@@saltedwounds Thanks! :]
I’m currently 35 weeks pregnant right now. It’s a stressful time, but I’m trying to remain positive. I really wanted my sister to be there for me giving birth, but only my fiancé can be there now. It kind of sucks because my sister lives 2 islands over from me(we live in Hawai’i) and she can’t fly to come see me and the baby..
@@lexibrandi3355 Yeah it really sucks. All these changes suck. I hope this whole lock down doesn't last too long.
myfairytalelife3 It does suck but we have to make the most of it. Things could always be worse! Stay safe & good luck to you and your family
I feel this episode so much. I was in a sort of similar situation, obviously I was fine afterwards or I wouldn't be typing this and my baby was completely fine.
So I had a completely normal labour and vaginal delivery. My complications came afterwards. I was taken up to the maternity ward post delivery, hubby and a nurse were with me. I needed to go to the toilet and luckily hubby came with me because as I sat down I fainted. All I remember was being carried back to the bed, the maternity nurses rushed in, ER nurses were called in. My OG/GYN was called back to the hospital (this was at about 2am)
I past out again. When I came to I was in ICU and my blood pressure was 60/40.
Over the course of 2 days I was given 4 - 5 bags of blood and 6 - 7 liters of saline.
I am just so grateful I changed my mind on having a home birth. I would not have made it to the hospital in time
I love you and this channel so much! So educational, but also so funny. When you were like “give that lady her crying baby” I died 😂.
I love your reactions the best, because even when what's happening is SO terrible, you still stop and empathize from their side of things. A lot of reaction videos are just someone trash talking the episode. You explain what's wrong without hating on anyone and that's fantastic!
Love your channel Mama Doctor Jones very informative, I am a nurse in Australia and the V word is part of female body 👍 thanks for speaking out
“I like to DIY, just not in the operating room.” I’m gonna start quoting that
My daughter was nicked with a scalpel during my CAT 2 emergency cesarean. This video is so informative as i always wondered wether i should have questioned why or how that happened. But i was 36 weeks with a rapidly aging placenta and had been in labour for 18 hours beforehand so i never thought of it. To hear that being nicked with a scalpel can be just an accident by a surgeon doing everything right does make me feel a little better about not questioning it
This was so stressful to watch, I don't think I could watch this show. You do such a good job of explaining it all. As a nurse, it's so hard to watch medical shows now because I know what's wrong and what's not accurate. It ends up stressing me out instead of just relaxing to watch a show.
You are my inspiration to become a NP in gynecology! I’ve had a lot of problems (Endo, PCOS, herpes) and I want to help others with fertility and with the stigma behind herpes and other similar issues. I am so excited and really look up to you!

I love channels like this, entertaining but super educational. You can learn a lot of super important medical stuff that you might never use, but hey, if you go into that field or become pregnant, you are covered. I love watching multiple different channels like this.
I was born via emergency c-section after I had defecated and was a few minutes from dying. I saw the doctor who called for the c-section to the done on the swedish news a year ago and that was a weird feeling for sure.
Thank you, thank you Dr.MJ! Always love you comments, you have a beautiful mind and personality!
“I hope I’m not alive when the apocalypse happens” eh, Rona’s close enough and hope you and your family are doing well.
"You're just holding him like Simba?!?" hahahha I laughed out loud haha
“Give the lady her baby!” Now that’s a real OB statement right there
👎
Thank you for your persistence, your videos are delightful and so informative.
I just found your videos on my feed and now I'm hooked and watching all of them!
You rock @Mama Doctor Jones , thanks for making these videos even with the hassle of TH-cam. You have convinced this woman to purchase a "SCIENCE ISN'T PERSONAL" t-shirt :-).
This is hilarious to me. My boyfriend works on the show (in lighting, nothing to do with all the stuff that was wrong) so it's interesting to see reactions to it. Our neighbors who is a retired NICU nurse also commented on this episode getting things wrong, but she still likes the show overall.
Just worked on an episode for next season that didn't seem very medically sound to me, though it wasn't obgyn related. I've heard the first season was better, but as it tends to go shows get popular and they care less about being accurate and more about ~drama~.
Well now I know everything that MDJ needs in life...coffee and diapers.
#momlife
Those aren't diapers! Those are GIANT COFFEE FILTERS! #morecoffeenow!
I started watching MamaDoctorJones when I found out I was pregnant 31 weeks ago! I’m full term now and honestly I’ve learned SOOOOO much about my body and the entirety of pregnancy because of her. I don’t have time to watch these tv shows because I’m binge watching labor and delivery videos 😂
Man, I just love you! I have zero plans to ever actually grow a human being inside of my body, but if I ever do happen to find myself pregnant, I am going to move to wherever you are long enough for you to be my OB/GYN and deliver my baby. Your intelligence mixed with your sarcasm/sense of humor just can't be beat!
Anyone else watching this during coronavirus?
bubbles3.14 totally not me
I am SO GLAD you did this one! I was pregnant with my second when I watched this episode, and even though I have zero medical training I was like “Uhm...this is wrong.” First of all I felt like they had almost everything that could go wrong happen, and how they handled it didn’t make sense to me. Usually while pregnant I can’t handle shows with a stressful delivery or where something happens to baby (probably a bit of PTSD from my first baby’s SD), but this one I just kept laughing at 😬
