  2. we're pregnant

    JeanettePNP replied to medsurgnurse's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I like to make my dh think he's in on it; that way he bends over backwards to do things for me during preg. "We're pregnant" is

  3. 9 months to plan this...buy a camera!

    JeanettePNP replied to HappyNurse2005's topic in Ob/Gyn

    My mom bought us a corificeat at Walmart after the birth. Thing is, we don't own a car, so corificeat was bought only for the purpose of transporting baby home. It did come in handy for other...

  4. You experienced ED nurses will get a kick out of this.....

    JeanettePNP replied to ParrotHeadRN's topic in Emergency

    I really don't get all the stories of ER abuse. Who wants to spend all day (or all night) in an ER? My couches at home are a lot comfier and I get to choose what I want to

  5. Empire State, Medgar Evers, Suny Downstate

    JeanettePNP replied to JeanettePNP's topic in New York Nursing

    How many credits I have really depends on how my credits are tallied up from various different schools. However, some posters here have made me somewhat wary of how a Bachelors from an online school...

  6. Empire State, Medgar Evers, Suny Downstate

    JeanettePNP replied to JeanettePNP's topic in New York Nursing

    I won't have a problem because I'm already enrolled in Brooklyn College and I have a 4.0 average there. They are not going to turn me down from Chem. Maybe I will end up doing chem at Brooklyn...

  7. Article in the NYT: The Weighty Responsibility of Drinking for Two

    JeanettePNP replied to scribblerpnp's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    I don't see how you're putting your license on the line when you provide a client with all available information and then tell her that it's up to her to make the right decision. According to the...

  8. Article in the NYT: The Weighty Responsibility of Drinking for Two

    JeanettePNP replied to scribblerpnp's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    I don't believe that it's the midwife's job to "let" or "forbid" her clients to do anything during pregnancy. A midwife is there to educate and facilitate a safe birth, and to give the prospective...

  9. Falling apart...

    JeanettePNP replied to Jamie-Sue's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm guessing that if you had the skills and capability to pull a 3.9 average, you probably will not have a hard time scoring well on the exam, unless you get into such a panic that you freeze. Remind...

  10. Empire State, Medgar Evers, Suny Downstate

    JeanettePNP replied to JeanettePNP's topic in New York Nursing

    Medgar Evers is a CUNY school. What do you mean about getting a seat in them? For their nursing program? I really want a BSN rather than an ADN, and except for Hunter, no CUNY school even offers a...

  11. Empire State, Medgar Evers, Suny Downstate

    JeanettePNP replied to JeanettePNP's topic in New York Nursing

    I was worried about that. Which bachelor's are more likely to be respected by Downstate? I guess my best bet would be to call Downstate directly and find out how best to prepare for their

  12. Empire State, Medgar Evers, Suny Downstate

    JeanettePNP replied to JeanettePNP's topic in New York Nursing

    Actually I'm in Brooklyn College now, but it doesn't serve my needs very well. It does not have a nursing program and the courses that they do have don't correlate well to the classes I need for...

  13. Internet Classes

    JeanettePNP replied to starzzmom's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm planning on doing all internet classes this upcoming semester. I felt that attending classes was basically a waste of time since I had to spend hours at home reading the book anyway and that's...

  14. Thoughts on Apple's Mac

    JeanettePNP replied to shippoRN's topic in General Students

    I think what's more likely true is that Mac is very good but that most people don't think that the quality difference is worth paying double the price, which is why their market share is still so...

  15. Are all nurses that wear white dorks?

    JeanettePNP replied to CaLLaCoDe's topic in General Nursing

    Have you ever seen anyone wear a white dork? Sorry, that's what I think of when I see the thread title--nurses that wear white

  16. license to breed

    JeanettePNP replied to medsurgnurse's topic in Emergency

    I really hope the judge doesn't return the child to their custody, but you really can't count on

  17. Hysterectomy: Necessity or Convenience

    JeanettePNP replied to outcomesfirst's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think that there's anyone that would consider anything as serious as a hys simply because they're tired of buying pads or tampons. Usually there are more serious issues to consider like...

  18. Information on a skin cream

    JeanettePNP replied to JeanettePNP's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks for the information. I wonder why the doctor didn't tell me it was OTC. Maybe he prescribed a stronger

  19. license to breed

    JeanettePNP replied to medsurgnurse's topic in Emergency

    Mentally ill is a broad term. Don't forget that many forms of mental illness are treatable/manageable these days. Are you implying that anyone with a psychiatric diagnosis shouldn't be allowed to be...

  20. Don't be a Psych nurse if.....

    JeanettePNP replied to IMustBeCrazy's topic in Psychiatric

    My belief is that all patients should be treated with dignity and respect, whether they're admitted for psych issues or any other type of treatment. While there is no reason to disclose intimate...

  21. Help?? 23yo son dx'd with brain tumor referred to Mayo immediately

    JeanettePNP replied to Ashera's topic in Oncology

    Ashera, prayers and blessings to you and your son. I wish you all the strength you need to get through this difficult period. Would it be possible to schedule a short trip to MN now just to be with...

  22. Health Profession & Wacko's

    JeanettePNP replied to Zizka's topic in General Nursing

    I was about to post something to that effect. Maybe nursing (and health professions in general) bring out a side of the person that wouldn't come out under ordinary circumstances, especially since...

  23. license to breed

    JeanettePNP replied to medsurgnurse's topic in Emergency

    We'll have to ask the NYC nurses if there has been any dropoff in pediatric injuries since the ad campaign was

  24. license to breed

    JeanettePNP replied to medsurgnurse's topic in Emergency

    You know, this week I saw posters all over the New York City subway system with child safety messages. Like, put window guards on your windows, don't sleep with your baby in bed, keep medications out...

  25. How loyal must one be?! Considering work change...

    JeanettePNP replied to CaLLaCoDe's topic in General Nursing

    Ask yourself whether the hassles you'll have getting used to a new place would be equal to or greater than the hassles you have
