1. Slow flow nipple?

   xObabytiggerr replied to RNLAC's topic in NICU

   @vintage What if the baby isn't ready to come off of oxygen? I find that interesting. In my NICU, if the baby's lungs aren't mature enough to breathe on just RA, they'll go home on like 0.01-0.02L @ 100% NC and able to bottle feed with a slow flow ni...

3. Bumped from NICU?

   xObabytiggerr replied to Lady_Leijing's topic in NICU

   I don't think you should assume. I work in the NICU right now (about 10 months in on my own) and it can be super intimidating to ask for more complex patients. I think charge/clinical educators or whomever deems the appropriate assignments to whom, s...

5. Any Pediatric Nurses out there?

   xObabytiggerr posted a topic in Career Support

   I just graduated Nursing school in May and I just passed boards last week Tuesday. I've been putting in applications everywhere, then last night I finally put in one for Children's Hospital in D.C. (the place that I really really want to work). I fou...

6. Pearson Vue trick 2014 -still works!

   xObabytiggerr replied to terri8's topic in NCLEX

   I just took my test last Friday and I was afraid as well. I went into my car and got the good pop-up. I was still uneasy, so I did the trick over 10+ times that day and over the weekend and I still got the good pop-up. It was either Monday or Tuesday...

   Thank you!!! :) That's actually a good point! It's VERY important to look for the keyword. I forgot to add that in my entry. Lol. When I first started out in nursing school, I use to do horrible in answering nursing questions and that was one of the ...

    xObabytiggerr replied to murseymurse's topic in NCLEX

    I don't have much experience with Kaplan, but the day before my exam, I stopped studying at 5 or 6ish and just relaxed and watched movies on Netflix. Later that night, I did some light exercise on the treadmill to alleviate my anxiety/headache, took ...

11. I passed in 254 Questions first try!

    xObabytiggerr posted a topic in NCLEX

    I was one of those who were absolutely TERRIFIED of this exam. The month leading up to it, it was a bit surreal, so I basically just paced myself. I tried to do at least 60-120 questions a day. I based my studying off of those questions I answered. ...

    xObabytiggerr replied to NurseAlzar's topic in NCLEX

    I think you're doing great with prepping so far. Make sure you know how to prioritize (i.e. what patient should you see first?), delegation, and of course labs. With select all that apply, go through each answer one by one and ask yourself "Is this t...

14. Quick Results in 48 Hours?

    xObabytiggerr replied to xObabytiggerr's topic in NCLEX

    That's what makes me iffy about paying the $8. That exam was super expensive! I might as well just wait until later today (Monday).
