oh, you were just laying down?

Why didn't she just affix the paci around the kid's head with some trach ties or some twine or something....

vapid - my new word for the day :)

what caliotter said - "i gave the medication without order, "cause Mom does it"

I'm confused, what do you mean affix the pacifier? Do you mean tie it around the baby's neck with twine? Not trying to be rude, just trying to figure out what you mean.

I do believe brillohead was being sarcastic.

they make those pacifiers attached to small toys that keep them in place. does your hospital not carry them?

Besides that, duct tape works much better ;-).

I'm joking. Really. Seriously.

Thru have so many cute tape designs now. I'm sure they could make sure it went with the baby's outfit for the day.

I am currently working a case where the patient is an adorable preemie with a pacifier addiction, haha.

One of the other nurses who worked over nights was fired because Mom caught her laying on the chaise couch with the baby.

The nurse called me and complained to me "oh I have seen Mom lay down with the baby many times. Now I am fired for doing it. I was just laying with the baby because I got tired of constantly getting up to replace the dropped pacifier."

I am just dumb founded. I just can't believe she would think she is being reasonable. Babies die because adults take naps with them. We should not be laying on the job.

How can a nurse be so..... vapid?

And if mom breastfeeds? Will that nurse do the same? :what:

Eww. Now I have to go wash out my brain.

I'm still trying to figure out how it would have been less work to retrieve the pacifier laying down instead of sitting.

Why some people just won't fess up and admit they were wrong is beyond me.

I do believe brillohead was being sarcastic.

OH! Well duh, my bad. I was concerned for a minute that we had a nurse tying things around babies' necks. You never know, there are some real looney tunes out there.
