Good Books??

Published

Ok, I am in the final semester of an LVN-RN program and I start my Preceptorship on L&D in March, which I am VERY excited about! I met with my preceptor today and she suggested I bring an OB book with me so we can talk about Fetal Heart Monitoring during our down times. I have an OB textbook, but it is HUGE, and I really want something that I can carry around with me. Does anyone have any suggestions on any good books that cover Labor and Delivery and Fetal monitoring. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

I have it and it is so helpful.

Specializes in OB, lactation.

I agree with the last link for a pocket fetal monitoring book.

If you want a pocket clinical guide, Clinical Handbook for Maternal Newborn Nursing & Women's Health Care (7th Edition) is a good addition too.
