Oh my GOSH this is MY LIFE right now! I am entering my 7th year of nursing as of next month. I got married 5 years ago and within that time period I have had two boys 22 months apart (on purpose--thank you very much) I started out working in a hospit...

Lifelearnings-This nap has not been ordered by a Doctor, rather decided it was best in a meeting which included the principal, teacher, behavioral support paras. Yes it is because of behaviors. But let me tell you, the behavioral para drops him off i...
What info is the app giving her? I think this *might* be the question here. Unless the app is giving her some kind of info she cannot get from her meter, I would say it is not a necessary item to have. If mom is getting the info as well, and can cal...
