1. False Pregnancy (Pseudocyesis)

   babynurse101 replied to Emergent's topic in Ob/Gyn

   One of my "favorite" deliveries was a 53 year old woman who was having a son and refused to believe it until we literally dropped the baby on her chest. After the baby went to the NICU and she'd been with us a day or so to recover, I went to ask her ...

2. Any infertile ob/gyn nurses here?

   babynurse101 replied to missnursingstudent19's topic in Ob/Gyn

   I don't personally have a fertility problem (that I know of, I have no desire to have kids any time soon), but I work in all areas of OB - L&D, mother/baby, NICU, and even occasionally peds - and I'd actually say about half my coworkers were neve...

3. Always Rumors

   babynurse101 posted a topic in New Nurse

   So I am a fairly new nurse still (just passed my 9th month in my first job) and I've made several dumb mistakes along the way. Insulin given incorrectly once during orientation, narcs given too soon after a c-section once shortly after orientation, a...

4. New Grad Help

   babynurse101 replied to babynurse101's topic in New Nurse

   Thanks for the responses. I agree my original post sounds flippant, but I wasn't in person. I am flippant about more light things like I forgot to give such-and-such room diapers when she asked, but I knew how big - and ridiculously dumb - the insuli...

5. New Grad Help

   babynurse101 posted a topic in New Nurse

   Hey everyone. I never intended to make a post like this because I know about the "new grad blues" and how hard that first year is. I expected all that. However, my job is becoming more stressful than that. It's going to be super hard to explain here,...

6. Emory New RN Residency Fall 2015

   babynurse101 replied to babynurse101's topic in Georgia

   No, I wouldn't ask about my specific status - that is pushy. I would just ask if the calls for women's services were through, and I'd think Amanda would know that since she's the only one giving out the calls for that and there are only 10 apparently...

7. Emory New RN Residency Fall 2015

   babynurse101 replied to babynurse101's topic in Georgia

   I kinda want to email Amanda and ask if they're done with phone calls for women's services so that I know to move on. But then I don't want to seem pushy...

8. Emory New RN Residency Fall 2015

   babynurse101 replied to babynurse101's topic in Georgia

   Has anybody's application status changed yet? I was thinking that it wouldn't if we were hired (who's got the time for that?), but that HR would change the status to generate and send an automatic email to all those who weren't gonna be hired. But mi...

9. Emory New RN Residency Fall 2015

   babynurse101 replied to babynurse101's topic in Georgia

   I've just about given up on Emory at this point. 95% sure they're done with women's services by now, especially since they're only hiring 10

    babynurse101 replied to babynurse101's topic in Georgia

    Go to this link Employment Opportunities With Emory Healthcare | Atlanta, GA | Emory Healthcare and I guess since you haven't gone before you can create an account and then log in. Though I'm sure it'll say the same thing mine's said since April 16th...

11. Emory New RN Residency Fall 2015

    babynurse101 replied to babynurse101's topic in Georgia

    That's a valid question. I can't imagine they'll every single person who interviewed who doesn't get offered - or else those poor HR people will be on the phone for days! I just keep checking that stupid application status like it's my job.

    babynurse101 replied to babynurse101's topic in Georgia

    I'm originally from Thomaston, bout an hour and half south of Atlanta (give or take with the horrendous traffic lol). All my family are still down there, except my mom and her parents, who live here in PA. So I've always planned on going back! :) Wow...

    babynurse101 replied to babynurse101's topic in Georgia

    Yeah, this interview would be for their next round of hires in the fall. I was supposed to go interview with them last month, but I couldn't get away from work long enough to take a trip down to Atlanta, especially when I had already scheduled Emory'...

    babynurse101 replied to babynurse101's topic in Georgia

    I'm lined up for another women's services interview with them later this month if Emory doesn't work out; preferably L&D or mother/baby again. What unit are you looking at?

15. Emory New RN Residency Fall 2015

    babynurse101 replied to babynurse101's topic in Georgia

    Well, if all else fails, I have Northside to fall back on. I just really really want Emory! :) Good luck to the rest of you who haven't heard anything yet! Maybe the four or five I've heard from on hear that are trying for women's services will make ...
