    Corpsmen & Medics, Become an RN in 9 Months

    LLLovely replied to PMFB-RN's topic in Government, Military

    I saw it too. The bold below seems condescending to me. Just sayin'. To the OP, thanks for bringing another possibility to the attention of the board. Surely this information will be helpful to...

    Are Locs Allowed???

    LLLovely replied to TellyTelz's topic in Government, Military

    The OP is a male. They would not be allowed in the Army. Women in the Army are authorized to have braids, so long as they meet the other requirements regarding neat appearance, proper wear of the...

    I know it's not going to happen

    LLLovely replied to crazylilkelly's topic in Government, Military

    I have seen some people get some pretty amazing medical waivers. Psych waivers are easier than you might think, especially for what I have heard psychiatrists describe as "garden variety depression...

    Honestly, how bad is the gas chamber?

    LLLovely replied to Renee4christ's topic in Government, Military

    Oy! You were infantry or some other combat arms branch I presume? I guess this is another example of how experiences vary. I suppose it could still be summed up by saying that it doesn't last all...

    which cities are the best for CNM opportunities?

    LLLovely replied to dinah77's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    I love the Chicago area, but I don't know much about the midwife environment there. Seattle and Portland are AWESOME areas for midwives. They are very open to midwfery, breastfeeding, and what I...

    Unassisted birth on GMA this morning!?

    LLLovely replied to mommy2boysaz's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Jenlaana, what you described is what angers me about the birthing environment in this country. That is coercion and unethical. For example, you wouldn't hear of an oncologist berating or lying to or...

    Honestly, how bad is the gas chamber?

    LLLovely replied to Renee4christ's topic in Government, Military

    Actually, the ugly goggle glasses don't go under the mask either. There are prescription inserts for the mask itself for those who require corrective lenses for anything other than reading. The...

    Considering Frontier in Kansas?

    LLLovely replied to MidwifeMom's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    I don't know what part of Kansas you are in, but there is a CNM just west of the KC metro who is a Frontier/CWRU grad who wants to be a preceptor for midwife students. Send me a PM and I will get...

    Unassisted birth on GMA this morning!?

    LLLovely replied to mommy2boysaz's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    I am headed towards midwifery for the same reasons epiphany mentioned. A physician actually told me, "You can sit here and watch your babies die on the monitor. We don't care if that is what you...

    Unassisted birth on GMA this morning!?

    LLLovely replied to mommy2boysaz's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    I know an RN who recently had her third child at home with just her husband. She had two previous hospital births, both with no intervention, but she hated them. While she is a strong person who is...

    CNM schools and respect of midwifery

    LLLovely posted a topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    I am interested to hear experiences of those who have attended brick and mortar schools for their midwifery training. I moved a couple of years ago and there is a local school that is accredited by...

    I love being a midwife

    LLLovely replied to Baby Catcher, CNM's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Do you find that working at a large hopital has limitations as far as your autonomy? A couple of midwives I know have said that hospital policy and on-call docs dictate much of what they are...
