Does anyone know a good way to remember Wenkebock Type 1 and 2 heart blocks... I keep getting them mixed up......

Jadu, your wife-husband-counseling assoc with heart blocks is so cute, I cant wait to share this with my classmates. ^^

One really quick phrase to remember the difference between second-degree blocks: Wencke wanders (or one-ders)

In a Wenckebach block, the P wave wanders gradually away from the QRS until a beat is dropped. That's also referred to as a second-degree Type I AV block.
