I'm a new grad that landed a position in OB so excited, as it's my first love. I will be doing postpartum/nursery. Any advice from some seasoned nurses for a newbee

Review your notes/books, including any materials found on here. Carry a notebook to jot down info to remember and show your preceptor that you're ready to learn and succeed. Good luck!

Congratulations to the both of you! I hope to land an OB position once I graduate as well. What did you all do to make yourself stand out?

Always be prepared to ask when you don't know. The quickest way to make the seasoned nurses not want to work with you is if they can't trust that you'll call for help when you need it!
I was a new grad as well. Just know you'll get more comfortable every day. Never let down your guard though, when things go bad it happens quickly. But if you're at a great facility, your other RN's and MD's will always be there to support you.
Congratulations!
