I’m in my second year of Midwifery, fulfilling my dream of studying in one of the most prestigious universities in Latin America: the University of Chile, but I have other dreams I want to achieve for example, after receiving my degree I would love to work in Rancagua, near my family. If conditions permit, years later I would like to go abroad, especially to travel to Africa, where there are many women who need help and where economic resources are scarce. So I can also say I really would like working in the public system, I think people who work there really have love for their work, but can be complemented with the private system which is important in terms of profit (money).
The specialization in neonatology is another of my dreams because as babies are my passion and know that I can help is very important to me. As far as my work schedule, I have no specific idea, but I wish I could have enough time to share with my family, and in the future, with my children.
Specifically I not pretend to have an important position in my future workplace, only I pretend try to make a quality work and dedication to people.
Those are my dreams, and I know that with the help of God it’ll be alright.

I think that all subjects are important for my career as a professional, we all bring knowledge and skills to develop in the future, I can say that so far, my favorite subject in the Midwifery career is Physiological Obstetrics, because it shows us more clearly the role we perform as professionals, we are really near of the profesional work.
Within Physiological Obstetrics, what I like most is the development of the fetus, showing changes during pregnancy and see how we can relate to it from outside. I think there is nothing "easy" in this issue because everything is difficult because we are working with lives, the hardest part is learning all the changes occurring in the pregnant woman and fetus during pregnancy because they are many. The development of content are delivered by midwives and midwives in the School of Obstetrics of the University of Chile, who are very willing to teach and answer questions.
As for my notes, are regular, not bad or good, but I want to improve and can reflect more than anything I've learned, because often the nerves betray me. I love my career and in the future try to be a midwife of excellence and help many people.

The use of the Web today is essential to study, especially now that I'm in the university. There are millions of places to enter but not all are of equal prestige, and in the field of health is essential to use the best source of information, since we are dealing with topics that have to do with people's lives.

Teachers tell us some sites, this time I chose www.redclinica.cl because it is a site that has information related to my career, and most importantly, the information is accurate and current. This site belongs to the Hospital of the University of Chile.

On the site we can find sections like and Clinical Medical Services, Research and Teaching. In relation to my area of research we can found specialties like Obstetrics and Gynecology, and Neonatology. I like review topics related with the Neonatology, because this area is my passion. I like this site because provides information as precise and clear to some of the work I've ever been performed during this period of study in the university, always trying an deliver quality in them, as a benefit of my notes and even learn everyday.
