Google.  I have seen more than a few MTs that tend to check s/l words with this search engine and some of the things that get linked together on there can be either frightening or funny at times, depending how you look at it!  Just an over-cautious old MT?

Hi.  I do quite a bit of OP notes with lots of deliveries and surgeries for OB/GYN.  I do agree with the previous post that those books would be extremely helpful, but I totally understand being strapped for cash (single mom with three kids here).  I thought this website might offer you some help until things start to get a little better for you.  You will find links here for just about everything. 


I hope this helps. Good luck with everything and congratulations on your upcoming wedding
