1. Lesbian L and D nurse

   AudreyHurston replied to AudreyHurston's topic in Ob/Gyn

   Your self identification experience totally parallels mine and defines the reason, in my unstudied opinion, we do not suddenly behave like men socially just because we are attracted to women. I am so astounded that someone would teach adults that th...

2. Lesbian L and D nurse

   AudreyHurston replied to AudreyHurston's topic in Ob/Gyn

   LovebugLPN, as I've explained in a couple of places on this thread, I asked this question because, the reality is that when you are in a work community, people share their lives so my co-workers may know that I'm gay and I wanted to know if that were...

3. Lesbian L and D nurse

   AudreyHurston replied to AudreyHurston's topic in Ob/Gyn

   I know this is totally off topic but if I could get turned on by my own contractions when I give birth that would be such a phenomenal alternative to the pain I've seen and heard about. LOL.

   Mom of 3 thank you for your encouragement.

5. Lesbian L and D nurse

   AudreyHurston replied to AudreyHurston's topic in Ob/Gyn

   Mom of three I appreciate your response. It is exactly the type of response that I was thinking of when I started the question as it is the misperception that a woman who is attracted to women is equivalent to a man that I worried could jeopardize my...

   Sofaraway, I really appreciate you sharing. Are you in the UK? I think things are very different in Europe.

7. NC Nurse Salary

   AudreyHurston replied to ssanders80's topic in North Carolina

   Paulie are these new BSN pay rates or ADN rates and why are NC nurses quoting hourly rates instead of salaries? Also, is this enough to afford a life in a neighborhood with high achieving public schools or to pay for private school? I know the cost o...

8. NC Nurse Salary

   AudreyHurston replied to ssanders80's topic in North Carolina

   Everyone always says to look on salary.com. what about indeed.com? Are the salaries quoted on indeed.com unrealistic?

9. Volunteer advice here in tucson

   AudreyHurston replied to awoo3's topic in Arizona

   Forgive me if this is redundant or asking you to repeat yourself but are there no volunteer nursing opportunities in the United States? I ask because I may get a non-medical fellowship that will prohibit me from working and I would like to maintain m...

10. Lesbian L and D nurse

    AudreyHurston replied to AudreyHurston's topic in Ob/Gyn

    FemmeRN that's really important for me to hear and, which makes sense since you're living it, realistic. I'm going to ask this question although it is off topic, is it possible to take a volunteer "job" that will enable you to maintain your skills d...

11. Moving from Labor and Delivery to CRNA

    AudreyHurston replied to AudreyHurston's topic in SRNA

    I'm still taking pre-reqs for the BSN -- not a nurse yet. I've just had a lot of experiences in my life that make me know (99.98%) that L & D will be right for me. I've never heard of a clin spec but I was planning to become a CNM but the schedul...

12. Moving from Labor and Delivery to CRNA

    AudreyHurston replied to AudreyHurston's topic in SRNA

    Thank you all. I can't imagine not doing L and D first and of course getting to SRNA will take longer than if I just started out in an ICU but if I went straight into ICU, there would always be a part of me that would wonder what I had missed out on ...

13. Moving from Labor and Delivery to CRNA

    AudreyHurston replied to AudreyHurston's topic in SRNA

    SICUTOCRNA thank you for speaking to me. You just gave me a possible path if I choose to become a CRNA.

14. Lesbian L and D nurse

    AudreyHurston replied to AudreyHurston's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Everybody, Thank you so much for responding seriously and at length to my inquiry. This has been a fear of mine that had me trying to find another specialty. Mr. Andolini's response as I read it, keyed into my original anxiety -- I don't care one way...

15. Moving from Labor and Delivery to CRNA

    AudreyHurston replied to AudreyHurston's topic in SRNA

    Thank you both for your responses. I feel like the way to stay close to L & D roots as a CRNA is to do OB epidural procedures and pediatric Anesthesia but is there a way to marry the compatibility with/love of L & D with CRNA or is the ICU/...
