   35 year old mom to four(12, 6, 4, 2). I start my ASN program this month. I am lucky that my husband has a great job that has enabled me to be a SAHM for the past 12 years but I am ready to get back into school and finish my degree.

7. Managing fitness in Nursing school

   Morning_runner replied to natmanzo's topic in General Students

   I am in the same boat. I have the added problem of distance. My school is almost an hour north of my house and my box(crossfit gym) is a half hour south. I am waiting to see exactly what my schedule will be before I make a decision about joking a box...

   Morning_runner replied to SingDanceRunLife's topic in General Nursing

   I start nursing school in the fall and plan on wearing my qalo ring. I wear it when I do CrossFit and it is awesome. I know several people wear them in lieu of an engagement ring when working out too.

9. Nursing, CrossFit, and funky hands

   Morning_runner replied to Morning_runner's topic in General Nursing

   I tried gloves. It slowed me down. I never felt like I had a good grip. I'm going to try the pumicing. That sounds pretty good.

10. Nursing, CrossFit, and funky hands

    Any nurses here into CrossFit? I start nursing school in August and am worried about the beating my hands take. How do you protect your hand from ripping? Do you modify to avoid a lot of bar work? Thanks!

11. Male student enters OB room. What do you think?

    Morning_runner replied to truckinusa's topic in Male Students

    I would not turn down a nurse that had not given birth but I would prefer one who had. I would prefer nurses who had experience in natural birth since that is what I wanted to accomplish. I was thankful that I got one. If a nurse chose to not breast...

13. Male student enters OB room. What do you think?

    Morning_runner replied to truckinusa's topic in Male Students

    Unfortunately there is a lack of female obs in my area. I went with a midwife but she injured her back halfway through my pregnancy. I loved my OB though. He is a Catholic father with a bunch of kids. He teaches a fertility awareness class and is ver...

    Morning_runner replied to truckinusa's topic in Male Students

    Its not the same thing. You have a long established relationship with your OB. I have been going to mine for 13 years. Also, nurses are the backbone of labor. They are the ones who coach and reassure a laboring woman. My nurses were champs. They were...

15. Male student enters OB room. What do you think?

    Morning_runner replied to truckinusa's topic in Male Students

    I have four children and after the experience I had with student nurses, I requested no students be present for my third and fourth. I have tiny veins and a nursing student tried to start my IV. She blew every one in arm and I ended up with an IV ...
