Hey guys. To put this lightly...I'm freakin' out on the Labor and delivery rotations. Did anyone else have this problem? I'm just so uncomfortable there and I know.. I'm gonna have to get through this somehow. Estrogen overload!!! I don't know what to do...I guess just go through with it.
I went into a 21 year old post-pardom patient's room and couldn't do an assessment. Her military husband's there next to her and I just felt so uncomfortable. I guess the fact that they threw us into the unit with no coursework at all didn't help the situation.
Anyway, I think I just needed an outlet to vent where somebody might understand what I'm going through.
pardon me as i'm new to this forum i just want to know from you guys if most obstetrics patients in the u.s. request for female nurses. i'm asking because this is common in the philippines maybe because of our culture. also as a newly grad nurse can i opt to be placed in the delivery room or the obstetrics ward?
