  1. going to work in Somerset, need advice

    rbytsdy replied to vgsrn's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    Somerset County is a fairly expensive area (most of central NJ is). Be prepared for some high prices. The town of Somerset has good areas and bad areas. The school is okay. There are some nice...

  2. Advice in New Jersey...

    rbytsdy replied to rookierunner9's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Those pre-reqs sound right to me. :) As long as you have a degree already, you should have the English/Psych/Sociology courses. There is a NJ Nurses forum where you could probably get more info...

  3. Out patient Cytotec

    rbytsdy replied to johj's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Considering the FDA and the actual manufacturer of cytotec (Searle) recommend AGAINST it's use for labor induction, this sounds like a really bad idea to me, especially since they want the patients to...

  4. Hospitals with On-Site Day Care?

    rbytsdy replied to nycNurse2b's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    I was just doing a search on this last night - I only looked at hospitals in my area though. I don't have details but it appears that the following hospitals have onsite daycare: CentraState (Bright...

  5. PLEASE HELP!!! so embarassed about sweating!

    rbytsdy replied to Bumashes's topic in General Nursing

    I sympathize (so glad many other people do to - I always feel like it's just me!) This company was made for people like us: http://www.dressshields.com/?gclid=CLaJsZe8s4YCFRU8OAod-WTnPg I've just...

  6. How hard is it to get into NJ nursing schools (waiting lists??)

    rbytsdy replied to rbytsdy's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    Well, I can sort of answer my own question now. I officially applied at Raritan Valley. It looked like most other community colleges only accept residents or give residents first slots. Since I...

  7. Babies cut during c-sections?

    rbytsdy replied to rbytsdy's topic in Ob/Gyn

    That is really a sweet remark. My younger sister and my dh were born by c-s and I dont think they think a thing of it! I never thought anything about until it happened to me. My poor mom (who...

  8. Babies cut during c-sections?

    rbytsdy replied to rbytsdy's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Thank you for your candid post; I definitely appreciate your honestly. :) I think about that a lot. I think OB nursing is really such an incredible area to be a part of. However, when things go...

  9. Babies cut during c-sections?

    rbytsdy replied to rbytsdy's topic in Ob/Gyn

    actually, it's not the screaming that bothers me. i have a 22 month old that screamed nonstop for the first 6 months of her life (and actually woke up screaming 3 times last night). turns out she has...

  10. Babies cut during c-sections?

    rbytsdy replied to rbytsdy's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I didn't ask my friend specifically but she made it sound like it was a fairly minor cut. She also wasn't trying to say it happens all the time but it's one of those things that does happen. I have...

  11. What to do about someone squishing your dreams.

    rbytsdy replied to Mr. Beef's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My mother is an RN and she always directed me away from any thoughts of going into nursing. She flat out told me that she didn't think I would make a good nurse. However, she claims that she...

  12. Breastfeeding pumps

    rbytsdy replied to tgoodwinrn's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Well, I guess I will also add (as a mom still bfing a 21 month old :) ) that I really like the Medela Pump In Style (Advanced). I noticed one day the suction action seemed a bit off so I called and...
