  1. I just can't do it....

    luvmy3kids replied to luvmy3kids's topic in General Nursing

    Wow! Thank you ALL for your kind words. I've been kinda blah today... thinking about what I'm about to give up. But I just have to remind myself how much free time I'll have with the kids, and I...

  3. I just can't do it....

    luvmy3kids replied to luvmy3kids's topic in General Nursing

    You know, it's not so much what I've seen or experienced that has me act like a fumbling idiot. (I saw a lot too... let me tell ya)... It's just, I was a nervous wreck around the other nurses and...

  4. Is there ANY department in nursing that I can avoid cleaning up poo?

    luvmy3kids replied to Future-nurse's topic in General Nursing

    That's true. Baby poo for me, I guess, is not a big deal. I wasn't thinking about that part of it... But most of the time, the moms are pretty self sufficient, right? I guess that's where I was...

  5. Is there ANY department in nursing that I can avoid cleaning up poo?

    luvmy3kids replied to Future-nurse's topic in General Nursing

  7. Is there ANY department in nursing that I can avoid cleaning up poo?

    luvmy3kids replied to Future-nurse's topic in General Nursing

    What about postpartum patients? Does anyone know? I had 3 c-sections and I didn't have any poo issues... I'm guessing most of the moms have that under

  8. Is there ANY department in nursing that I can avoid cleaning up poo?

    luvmy3kids replied to Future-nurse's topic in General Nursing

    One thing to keep in mind is that as much as you don't want to clean up the poo, the patient probably feels 100X worse that you are having to do it for them in the first place. I'm hoping to work in...

  9. Is this wrong? Death and Dying

    luvmy3kids replied to Karynica, RN's topic in General Nursing

    Porcelina, I'm so sorry for the losses of your two children. I can't imagine what that must be like and for you to share it with the class must have taken a lot of courage and strength. I would be...

    luvmy3kids replied to openheartmary's topic in Emergency

    I'm so sorry you have had to go through this. I hope your son recovers quickly. I agree, you should contact someone and report the care he received. Good luck, let us know how he's healing. Take...

    luvmy3kids replied to boomer28's topic in General Nursing

    luvmy3kids replied to Ehope's topic in General Students

    Thank the Lord for the U of M! We get to wear ceil blue scrub tops and bottoms and if we are not in the hospital... it's just nice khaki pants, top and a lab coat. Hopefully you'll never have to do...

    luvmy3kids replied to Sebastian34's topic in General Nursing

    Welcome! I'm 34 as well and nursing is my 2nd (well 5th actually, LOL) career. I'm sure you are going to hear this from a lot of people.... you are the only one that can decide what you want to do...

  14. Volunteering in the NICU (finally!!)

    luvmy3kids posted a topic in NICU, Neonatal

    Hi everyone! I posted a while back about the possibility of volunteering in the NICU. The only problem was that I would have had to transfer to another hospital (Childrens Mpls) as the hospital I...

  15. what are these people thinking???

    luvmy3kids replied to RNmom08's topic in General Nursing

    I know you are upset, but maybe it was a mistake? It's possible someone else brought a diet soda and put it in the fridge then went to grab it and didn't notice the X you had drawn on it. I guess I...

  16. Volunteering in the NICU (finally!!)

    luvmy3kids replied to luvmy3kids's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    Thank you so much! I'm so excited I can hardly wait until Saturday. If all goes well... maybe I'll drop out of school and become a full time volunteer! LOL (only kidding) But it would be nice to...

    luvmy3kids replied to UtErRnEmt's topic in Emergency

    luvmy3kids replied to Ayeloflo's topic in General Nursing

    Wow! Thanks for the interesting post. My Aunt's husband commited suicide about 3 years ago. She happens to be an RN too. No one had a clue it was coming.... and I honestly believe it was his "last"...

  19. how did you get over the nasty stuff?

    luvmy3kids replied to m12988's topic in General Nursing

    That's so funny because OB is about the ONLY thing I can imagine myself in. LOL (well NICU

  20. Suicide. Please, help me right away. Please.

    luvmy3kids replied to Ayeloflo's topic in General Nursing

    While I understand the point of asking this question.... it's very possible that they will likely lie and say everything is fine, right? Then what?? Not that you can just assume that they are...

  21. Stop The Title Madness

    luvmy3kids replied to INFIDEL's topic in General Nursing

    Right, but I think she meant the BS in general would have to be earned before you can get a Master's. KWIM? I don't mind it too much. I don't think it's necessary to list 3,000 of them, but a few is...

    luvmy3kids replied to MIRockstarRN's topic in General Nursing

    luvmy3kids replied to AngelfireRN's topic in General Nursing

    luvmy3kids replied to FranEMTnurse's topic in Nursing Humor

    I was watching "A Baby Story" on TLC and the soon to be father was on the phone talking with his parents about how the delivery went. Baby had a BM during delivery and the dad stated it like this......
