Specialty hunting!

So I'm getting closer to graduating from my BSN nursing program (grad in dec 2018!) and i'm looking at summer internships. I am interested in psychiatric, obstetric, and pediatric nursing but I am having trouble deciding where I would like to get my feet wet first. My thought is that I will work in the area (as a care partner or through internship) that I want to work in when I graduate so I can have some experience.

Currently, my plan is to go into labor and delivery nursing, get my SANE certification, and become a Women's Health NP. Or, if I decide that isn't for me, instead of becoming an NP, I will transition to mental health. I did really enjoy pediatrics when I had my clinical there too, but i'm unsure.

I honestly can't decide which specialty I like best though! Thoughts?
