Sophie smiled and nodded. "Well, that's a good question", she joked and made both of them laugh. "I suppose it was the fascination for the entire process and miracle of bringing a new life into the world. This miracle, which starts at zero and ends with a new human being..........I was fascinated by that since I first heard about the process of conception, pregnancy and birth when I was a child of 9 years............then I read a lot of books during my years at school, which not just spoke about the biological processes, but also about the psychological ones, which made the whole thing even more interesting", she explained.
"Well.......then after having finished high school, I went to college, but I used the summer before that to do a little training in a hospital, where I worked as a secretary in the urological ward. Those were little paper jobs like checking forms and stuff like that or receive patients at the reception..........and as the urological ward had also a station for male childbirth, I got into touch with it, with the fathers and sometimes.........sometimes I could even get some little sounds or images of a man giving birth to his child, when I walked past the door of the delivery room or handed something to the doctor there", she explained and smiled, seeming to be captured by her past in a wonderful way.
"And that's pretty much it. I went to college then, did my degrees and worked in a hospital for about 4 years, but not in the same as where I did all my practical training..............unfortunately, because this one I worked in was full of intolerant people, who could help men and women deliver their babies, but who always looked at a pregnant man, as if he was an alien..........I had to get out of there and so I opened my own clinic", she said and smiled.
