Idols Are Idols...


Hello everyone in this opportunity I will continue talking about football .But this time the post has relation with my football Chilean player Matias Fernandez.

To start the biography:

Matias was born May 15th, 1986 in the neighborhood of Caballito in the city of Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Her mother is a national of Argentina, but her father is Chilean. After fours years living in Argentina Matias come to Chile in the city La Calera.
In beginning Matias was nicknamed “Pelusa”. Matias at seventeen had an illness in her column that almost leaves out of football.
Matias was player of “Union La Calera” football team of the city, after at the age of twelve Matías went to play to COLO-COLO.
In COLO-COLO Matias was debuted the year 2004 in the professional team
was in this club that reached its peak because Scored 46 goals in 96 games. In the year 2006 Matias was champions twice, was elected the best player in Chile and America, and came at the final cup South American and the Villarreal Club buy Matias, carried first opportunity to Europe.
Their fate in the old continent wasn’t good first in Villarreal was a bad participation playing 89 games and scored 7 goals. After this discreet presentation in Spain Matias was Sporting de Lisboa in Portugal. In this club Matias has had a better luck because less time has more efficiency. In Sporting de Lisboa Matias was scored 6 goals in 24 games.

Currently Matias are in South Africa with the Chilean team battling the FIFA World Cup; in this opportunity he is doing good jobs in our Team.
Is why that I trust that will have a good job in the championship and will again be the best played, as it was four years ago.

education and prevention



Hello everyone, how are you? Today I will speak about education and prevention. This is an important area of obstetrics because the midwife is in constant communication with the users, there for the education and prevention is an important tool to take care of people. The importance about the education and prevention lies in that it will always be better and more economic prevent a disease than cure it.


Is for this reason that the health professional is in recurrent counseling with people, it could be only one person, a family or a whole community like a commune, a region or even a country. The key is in the education that you can give to the people to make their lives better.


The midwives can execute a lot of activities with the three different levels (Individual, family and community ) for example personal counseling in the individual level, educational talks in the family level and in the community level the health professional can use the mass media like the television, the radio, the internet, etc. for a most global education.


Usually people think that the midwife job has only a clinical approach but our job is much more than that. An important part of the midwife job is to educate the population about teenage pregnancy, family planning, sexually transmitted infections (STI) and pregnancy problems among many others.


Finally I think the best way to inform people about the topics that I mentioned is explaining them in the simplest words about the pros of the preventions of the different diseases to which they are more exposed and the importance of a healthy life.

the gender is not a problem :)

Hi everyone how are you? In this opportunity I ‘am going to talk about the gender problems or issues in my career. In general I think that this isn't a big problem, except for the big disproportion in the female / male ratio, the number of women is highly superior compared with men.

In the case of men I think is very beneficial because women trust most in the men midwife; they say the man is more careful and respectful. Also feel more included.

For the inconvenience I feel that the men midwife don’t have, except when women have complicated mood, but in this case depend of the men midwife management.

In general I think the gender issues don’t affect other health professional because men and women can do a god job.

In my carrier I feel that the gender difference is not a problem even I think is a benefit for both genders because produced communication between them.

In other countries with equal or bigger development (social, economic, etc) I think the situations with gender is the same. In the countries with minor development maybe there are more prejudices about certain tasks that should make a man or a woman.

Building my future



Hi everybody, this opportunity I’m going to talk about my future as a midwife.


First, I think is important to continue studying because it opens more possibilities in futures employments, especially in a competitive world as the current.


After the specialization (I think I would like to specialize in Public Health or Gynecology, but I’m not sure yet). So I’ll probably finish my studies when I’ll get pretty old.


I would love to work in public and private sector. In public sector I could help people of every social stratus, and contribute to my country. But in private sector I would have an economic benefit so I wouldn’t dislike working in that sector.


On the other hand my role as a midwife it would be focused to give an integral support and help for the mother and the baby all that with the base of the studies and knowledge.


This are my actual plans, like my “ideal world” but I don’t know if in the future my priorities change or if my likes go in some other way. All I know is that I want to finish my career and been the best professional that I can.

I believe that my decision to study obstetrics is because I feel that I have much affinity with female genre. I have always been related with women in my family and with my friends.

I feel in love with my carrier because it has an important social work which allows me to improve myself in public health.

I remember that my first visit to hospital was to Lucio Cordoba hospital but wasn’t a good experience because the hospitalized users were in very bad and decrepit situation. Unlike Luis Tisne hospital, there the experience was wonderful.

There I live my first approach to mothers and babies. In that moment I felt the need to help woman and babies

I was worried because what happened in Lucio Cordoba Hospital I didn’t feel ready to see that level of misery again.

But after I talked with teachers and classmates they convinced me that the obstetrics work wasn’t related with the things that we did on Lucio Cordoba Hospital.

Other important factor was that I passed to second year because the subjects are more related with the carrier.

I think that midwifery is the carrier for me because combine medicine and sociology two vocations important in my life.

First the medicine, the development of pregnancy, the study of embryology is a very interesting biology branch.

Second the sociology is an important vocation because I feel is necessary to help at women in a humanized way and been a support in one of the most beautiful moments: The Delivery.

Hello again in this oportunity I'm going to talk and recommend the web site www.embarazada.com
This site have a lot of information about the pregnant woman and babies.
The site helps people, especially womans because contains important details about the proces of pregnatcy, for example in the main page have a list with topics related to pregnancy like:
-Abortion
-Food habits
-Change in the body of pregnant woman
-Drugs and risk in the pregnancy
-Multiple pregnancy
-Delibery
-Cesarean
-Paternity
-etc

In relation with the newborn the website have a lot information about the care of the baby.
Also the website have a particulary and special tool : the calculator of pregnancy, this tool help to calcuculate the time of pregnancy, the date of birth etc.
The woman need the date of the last period and the "calculator" shows a lot of dates in relations with the pregnancy.
I like this page because is very complete and the people can comunicate with midwifes, doctors nurses etc. And it helps me to correct the calculation of date birth.
I visit very often this website and I recommend the people visit the website because is very funny and the relation with obstetrics is very important.
