BBRANRN2013, ASN, RN Has 1 years experience. Nov 20, 2010 Congratulations. I start my nursing clincals in January and I can only hope that when I graduate I get a job in L&D. It's my life long dream. After having four children (one of which was in the NICU for 2 months) I have wanted to help other mothers through this miraculous time. Congrats. 0 Likes
