Didn't even take me a week. This one went to 40 5/7, and waiting around for her to deliver (knowing it was to be my last one, I didn't want to miss it) reminded me of just how much that constant subconscious worry really does weigh on you, and I went home Tuesday morning and slept like a rock (though the 3 hours of sleep I got while she was in labor Monday night may have had something to do with that too).

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
