Too funny!

Katie....thanks for the advice! I will do that!!!

Also, yes, I would love to see a C/S!! So I guess I need to ask Mrs. E about seeing one???? :)

Second, I'll be in NBN, then PP4e. After that, I'm in 7E the rest of the time for M/S.

Katie, what did you do for your OB related community service???

[JaxiaKiley]

Tell me about it -- Before school started, I spent 8-16 hours a day online

I'll keep my fingers crossed about the babies

Yes, you can tell Ms. E. and also the charge nurse on your L&D floor. When I was on our L&D floor I took the first C-section and my classmate had the first vag. delivery. Then we switched. :) By the way, if you want to be familiar with C-sections check out this video:

For community service I went to a local hospital with a classmate to observe and assist baby birth classes. We were there 2 days 4 hr each. It was pretty good, one day they had a tour on their L&D floor so we could go there and look around and ask questions, too.

Only a little?

[Fun2, BSN, RN]

Thanks, Katie....I'll check it out. :)

LOL Jaxia...ok, ok..."normal people scare me."

Hey, you already watched it?

If you are interested and have time, go to the main page and then OB procedures. There will be some hysterectomies. I have seen a couple of them. Even if you don't want to see the whole surgery it worth watching the first 5-10 minutes of any laparoscopy procedures because they show the reproductive system very well. It gives a great perspective how organs and tissues connected 'down there'.

OH yeah....I went straight to it to watch it. haha There were a few on the links on the side that seemed to be interesting, too.

I can't watch anymore right now, but will squeeze them in when I can. You'd think I would know all about Innovar by now. I've read about that drug a million times. Nothing is sinking in very well.

I think I had too long of break.

[Fun2, BSN, RN]

Katie...I'm trying to do my med sheets for the NBN drugs that Ms. E wants us to have done before clinicals (HepB, Vit K, etc.).

Do you have these still? What did put for alcohol and Triple dye? (Classification/uses/nursing implications/side effects).

Is the info from the drug cards provided enough for the rest (besides alcohol and Triple Dye)?

Thanks!
