  1. Interesting places where women have given birth

    beanie29 replied to JeanettePNP's topic in Ob/Gyn

    So true. A great book on this is Emergency Childbirth by Gregory White. (pretty sure that's the

  2. strange request?

    beanie29 replied to love2shop's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Yes, I've heard of this before. It's supposed to help with post-partum depression and contraction of the uterus back to its non-pg shape & to stop bleeding. Maybe additional reasons, although...

  3. Why so many interventions ??????

    beanie29 replied to Mooncricket55's topic in Ob/Gyn

    This is why I'm nervous about working L&D. I don't understand the reason for so many routine interventions. I think I'll just do my best to get through those few years until I can apply to the CNM...

  4. Interesting places where women have given birth

    beanie29 replied to JeanettePNP's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Good quotes :) A good friend of mine had a UC recently. Her friend taped it and it was such a beautiful birth. My SIL is due next week and also planning a UC. It's not as uncommon as some would think....

  5. Voluntary C-Sections?

    beanie29 replied to Jo Dirt's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I had a c/s with my first and a vbac with my second. I had no complications with my c/s and a 2nd degree tear with my vbac.. and the lady partsl birth was a walk in the park compared to the c/s....

  6. What's your experience with doulas?

    beanie29 replied to EnergeticRN's topic in Ob/Gyn

    That's really too bad if some people interpret that as 'pushing' the mother. I think it's just helping the mother to have the opportunity to ask for more information. To find out about side effects,...

  7. What's your experience with doulas?

    beanie29 replied to EnergeticRN's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I think doulas are wonderful (I'm sure there are exceptions, but I haven't met any exceptions yet ). I'm starting nursing school in the fall and I am taking my labor doula training this summer...

  8. Interesting places where women have given birth

    beanie29 replied to JeanettePNP's topic in Ob/Gyn

    That sounds so amazing :) Many of my friends have had homebirths, but I don't think any of them have given birth outdoors. Although we are in CT, so it's cold a good portion of the

  9. a male midwife??? :S

    beanie29 replied to yaz's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    I think it's wonderful if a man wants to be a midwife, just try to be respectful of those women who aren't ok with that (even if you don't understand it, which clearly many of you don't). I read the...

  10. midwife vs. ob/gyn

    beanie29 replied to maggijo's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    I agree with what the previous posters have mentioned. I used an OB for my first delivery and switched to a CNM with my second. I plan to use our CNM for all future babies~ it was just such a...

  11. I got in! I got in!

    beanie29 replied to L&D_2b's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Congratulations!! We don't find out until April/May.. I'm hoping to start this fall, too. Good luck!

  12. A&P II Club, 2007

    beanie29 replied to CuriousMe's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hello everyone :) This is my first post here, but I'm also in A&P II right now. We are studying the endocrine system. Today was the posterior pituitary/ADH, etc. It was a very long afternoon! I am...
