Being an "oldie" I have the pleasure of introducing new OB nurses to our unit. It is very hard to teach instinct, "the look" be it the patient arriving in advanced labor or a sick HELLP syndrome or PPH. This thread is going to become required reading for any further newbies. The stories are so on the mark to describe ways we can not miss that silent PPH. hank you all.
