Thanks, and I kind of thought that too. I was planning on speaking to them sometime this week (adviser), but it doesn't look like it's going to happen. Anyway thanks for the great advice everyone. I've been sorry worried about wanting to sign up.

Thank you for the help. That's totally what I want to know and I plan on speaking with them(adviser) sometime in the next week or so.

Now maybe this is the right spot to post this. I really don't know. I would really like to go school to become a nurse. I went to college for like half a semester when I graduated from high school, but it was only one class. Anyway now I would like to get back in to school so I could become a nurse. My question is this, If a community college offers a program for nursing am I able to sign up for it or what? Here's the program i was looking at. http://catalog.actx.edu/preview_program.php?catoid=5&poid=814&bc=1

What if a community college has program for nursing. Can I sign up for that? http://catalog.actx.edu/preview_program.php?catoid=5&poid=814&bc=1

This may sound like a dumb question, but do you have to go to regular college(or something along those lines.) and then attend nursing school? Or can you jump right in to nursing school?

Thanks!!!!! I can't wait to start to school. I've seen that some nursing programs have electives. where you could choose neonatal, but I don't know much about that so I'll have to look in to it.

I'm planning to go to school to be a nurse because I want to get into neonatal nursing. What does it all take school wise? Does a regular nursing program work? I know my question probably sounds confusing but any help would be appreciated.

I'm sorry if I asked this in the wrong spot. I am also sorry if you can't understand my question. I am planning on going to school to hopefully become a neonatal nurse. So my question is this, when you applied for a job at a hospital did you find it that they rather have you, have a bachelor's degrees over associate-degree and because of that they didn't hire you? Or did it not matter at all? Because what I was thinking of doing was getting an associate-degree and then find a job and keep working toward a bachelor's.

Because for one, I just love working with babies. The second reason is while I was in high school I did some job shadow thing where I went and studied a baby nurse or something of that degree and it looked like something I wanted to do. So I want to be a nurse and I really figure a baby nurse would give me that want as in wanting to be a nurse and my love for babies and working with them.

Oh cool I didn't know that.

Alright, I read a little more in to a neonatal nurse and now I believe that's what I was looking for. Level 1 neonatal nurses are not in much great demand, but I'm thinking a level 1 and maybe 2. This is the site I was looking at. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neonatal_nursing#Levels_I.2C_II.2C_and_III

Okay, now I am really confused. I thought perinatal nurse was what I was looking for, but then I found something like Certified Newborn Specialist. So now I don't know and I am really confused.

Your welcome

If I was to be a labor & delivery nurse would I have a chance to work with the infant/newborn after the mother gave birth? Like would I be able to work in the nursery or not? If I had to work with the mothers before they gave birth then I guess that wouldn't be so bad.

I'm planning on going to school to be a nurse. I would really love to be one that only works with infants, but I am totally not sure on what type of nurse that is. Can anyone help me out please? Thanks
