I'm 25 years old and planning on eventually going back to school for nursing and I'm deciding between being a CNM or getting my RN and specializing in labor and delivery. A huge pro for labor and delivery is being able to attend a college in my state so that I don't have to move across the country and pay out of state tuition.
My sister in law is a labor and delivery nurse and she loves her job, and she really sold me on the idea of being a travelling nurse. She told me that she and her fellow nursing friends were able to work for 6 months, then spend the rest of their time at home not working. This definitely appealed to me since I'm single and have no children.
This was a bit rambly, but I was hoping to hear from people who work in either of these fields and just hear about your personal experiences.
Thanks
