    Essential Oil Diffusers

    LibraSunCNM replied to BluebellRN's topic in School

    Ah, I see. If that's the case, I wouldn't be surprised in the least. Those EO pyramid schemes and the people who join them make me homicidal. As a parent, I'd kick up a HUGE fuss about that being...

    Essential Oil Diffusers

    LibraSunCNM replied to BluebellRN's topic in School

    Just curious, why does the PTO want diffusers in classrooms? Seems like a strange issue to fixate

    New mom RN pumping at work

    LibraSunCNM replied to lovemycat's topic in General Nursing

    Can't you get a hands-free pumping bra? Then the flanges wouldn't touch your scrub

    Not adjusting to night shift

    LibraSunCNM replied to nurseontheway's topic in General Nursing

    It's tough, no doubt about it. When I worked full-time nights for the first time, I literally thought I'd die. I got into a routine and within 3 months, I was getting by, but I definitely went to...

    I'm going to be a model! A pelvic model, that is...

    LibraSunCNM replied to klone's topic in General Nursing

    Oh man, when I was in midwifery school, the couple of days we had with the pelvic models was INTENSE. I don't know if it was just that specific group of models, but they were the ones teaching us in...

    Getting over a bad outcome

    LibraSunCNM replied to L&D4Lyfe's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I'm so sorry this happened to you, sending hugs! This may sound callous, but what honestly gets me through bad outcomes is knowing that no matter what we do, it is impossible to eliminate all risk in...

    Cervical Spinal Stenosis Help

    LibraSunCNM replied to UrbanHealthRN's topic in School

    As a parent, it is mind-blowing to me that you had to shoulder all this responsibility and the parent did nothing. Dropped their kid off with a HALO on and didn't think they needed to touch base with...

    39 IOL

    LibraSunCNM replied to Surfandnurse's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Gotcha! In terms of cervical ripening being rare, do you mean that you only do elective inductions at 40 weeks on women with a Bishop's score of 6 or more, or you just don't bother with cervical...

    What the hot fudge is going on here?!?!?

    LibraSunCNM replied to SaltineQueen's topic in School

    Super common among anti-vaxxers. There's a belief that the immunity your body gets from having the illness is "superior" to the immunity it would get from a vaccine so these "parties" are rampant. I...

    CNM Job Prospects?

    LibraSunCNM replied to James75's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Yes, it's common to be hired out of clinicals with no job being advertised. This happened to me and a few other classmates. I was hired a month prior to graduation. I tried to put my best foot...

    Unvaccinated Boy in Oregon gets Tetanus

    LibraSunCNM replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    As a midwife who discusses clients' concerns with this very idea regularly, I'm just weighing in on this specific theory. Given that we do know from recent research that the changes in our microbiome...

    Is this crazy?

    LibraSunCNM replied to ThePrincessBride's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    It all depends on the job market where you live, or whether you are willing to move for a job. The market is saturated with nurses hoping that becoming an FNP will be their golden ticket to a cushy...

    "You can't fix stupid!"

    LibraSunCNM replied to OldDude's topic in School

    Wow, I'm so glad that a longtime anti-vaxxer is on the state's committee for public health ?. Relax kids, you'll be happy to know your gubment isn't infringing on your rights when you're sick in bed...

    Has internet fueled anti-vaccine movement?

    LibraSunCNM replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    In my opinion, yes. More specifically, I feel that Facebook is the main culprit. Anyone can post a random picture of a child in a vegetative state, with a caption saying the kid had a vaccine...

    Very Frustrated!

    LibraSunCNM replied to cretin's topic in General Nursing

    You understand that this is why management is able to treat you this way, no? They guilt you into taking open shifts so that they never have to fill them with new employees. You are digging your own...

    Safe staffing vent

    LibraSunCNM replied to Swellz's topic in General Nursing

    I seriously can't even. I often think about the people out there making more money than I will ever see in my lifetime, sitting in boardrooms making decisions like these. I truly don't know how we...

    Safe staffing vent

    Patients actually have to say "Alexa, send my nurse" ???!!!??? You're not being hyperbolic? I've never heard of such a thing and my mind is

    Hospitals paying for your stay?

    No, I've never heard of a relocation package or providing for travel/accommodations for interviews for a new grad staff

    I Hope This is Not the Latest Trend

    LibraSunCNM replied to PhyllisMSN's topic in General Nursing

    I have no idea why you think posting this again will "further the discussion," it's obvious you and the poster you've been back and forth with are not in agreement on this issue and we are beating a...
