Hi lorijorn, I have several books, and they were all helpful in one way or another. But what I think really really helped was a two day prep class for Inpt OB. I can't imagine how I would've passed without the class. I traveled from Illinois to California to take the class and sit for the test at the same time, it was well worth my money. I will provide the link! Good Luck to you. Professional Education Center - 2012 Inpatient OB (NCC RNC Exam Option Onsite)

What does everybody do for delivery Pitocin after the placenta? We use Pit30units/NS500ml for inductions, but after delivery we change out to Pit 20units/1L LR at bolus rate. I have recently heard that other facility close to us boluses their Pit30units/NS500ml after delivery, our pharmacists disagree with this saying that the concentration is too much. Thanks!

Good point! I hadn't thought about it that way. I am crossed trained to do it all. I would only do L/D if I had the option! lol Thanks for the reply

Hello fellow OB nurses, I have been pondering my RNC...take it or not take it? It will be for self gratification. No increase in pay, no hall of fame...my facility won't pay it. Nothing, nada.... So before I jump right in to it does anybody have any suggestions as to which to take? The Inpt OB or Maternal/Low risk newborn? what to do...what to do... thanks!
