Funniest thread ever.
Schade, I'm glad your bootie got a clean bill of health. 
And here I thought having a baby at a teaching hospital was the indignities of indignities. 
Hey Dixie....where did you have yours?
I had my youngest at Duke.
My darling son had poked a hole in the placenta so I was checked in on a Friday afternoon, and my doctor(not a resident) had to go out of town. Because I didn't like the doctor on call, I opted for a new guy who doing a fellowship...he had come over from Greece, 2.5 months before.
Since the "fellow" delivered me instead of an attending, they thought I was a "public" (charity) patient. So I was checked by the residents. That consisted of them walking in and asking 'you ok?'
On Monday morning, I was to go home, and this resident comes in and says he has to check my stitches. I said 'nope, you don't...they feel just like they are supposed to...they hurt!'
We argued for a few minutes because he was determined to check ....and I was determined he wasn't. Finally I said, 'look I play bridge with your wife, my husband's a resident ....and you aren't checking!' He left ....a bit more than irritated...
I finally agreed to letting a nurse look at them....no one else in the room. She said ' yep,...hurt, don't they?'
I went home about an hour later........right after I split the stitches apart raising my leg to climb up onto my hospital bed.....
Teaching hospitals are good....I'm just not willing to be somebody's guinea pig.
