  5. Cytotec

    closed,thick,firm,posterior,and sky high = bishop score 0 and they would get it:) myself I am comfortable with cytotec. but still believe we should only induce for medical necessity not social inductions:)
  6. Should I worry?

    you should be very very afraid. no way should you be left alone like that! hope you never find out why,things can go bad very fast and one nurse with 3 patients is just down right dangerous and crazy:)

  12. BSN's deliver safer care than ADN's??

    same old biased arguments still prevalent on this topic:) I for one have seen no advantage of having a BSn in the work place. while i may agree with the study quoted here and believe BSN should be the entry level of nursing for many reasons. I see no...
  13. Men in the OB

  14. Relactation? Is it possible?

    it takes determination and work but it can be done. it consists mostly of lots of pumping and or nursing. some herbs have been found helpful as well as reglan. hope that helps:)
  15. Men in the OB

    that is a concern but few realize that the most sued gender is in ob in a recent study is female. so it only makes sense if one is worried about lawsuits that they require females as well as males to use escourts during exams:)
