  1. Nurse Emptied Sharps Container!!!!

    kmrmom42 replied to proudmommielpn's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, especially since she had been fired once before for suspicion of something similar. I think that is the key here. This nurse probably freaked that she was going to get fired again and potentially...

  2. TLC Special Duggar Family

    kmrmom42 replied to alphafe's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I think if you watch this program you will see that it is not the sheer number of children that is being objected to. It is the way they seem to be sheltering their children from the realities of the...

  3. Tossing perfectly good breast milk

    kmrmom42 replied to TiffyRN's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    Do you think there is any chance that you can get through to this educator if you have this discussion with her yourself? I like to try to resolve issues with the person that I am having a problem...

  4. Tossing perfectly good breast milk

    kmrmom42 replied to TiffyRN's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    Here is how I feel about this......

  5. ++ Job Description!! please dont IGNORE

    kmrmom42 replied to brunette_moi's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I think that your teachers probably would like you to find the information for this assignment from sources that you can reference. If you use answers that we give that will just be hearsay and can...

  6. Old Ladies Having Babies

    kmrmom42 replied to alphafe's topic in Ob/Gyn

    As an OB nurse I have seen many women over the age of 40 give birth. I have not personally seen anyone over 50 do so though. Older women (Advanced Maternal Age) do have more risk factors than women in...

  7. Labor, birth and spectators

    kmrmom42 replied to KRVRN's topic in Ob/Gyn

    What a wonderful discussion this has been. I think that the original poster's question has been well answered. I loved all the support for the idea that this is really the laboring woman's day. When...

  8. What is your hospital's policy on supplemental feeding?

    kmrmom42 replied to cabbage patch rn's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Chatsdale, I am sorry you were offended but if you knew me you would know how very far off-base you are with this. There is nothing wrong with identifying that the cultural beliefs of a specific group...

  9. What is your hospital's policy on supplemental feeding?

    kmrmom42 replied to cabbage patch rn's topic in Ob/Gyn

    This is also something I see with many of our Hispanic Mom's (mostly those who have recently come from Mexico and have not been "Americanized"). They do not want to breastfeed until their milk comes...

  10. SHAVING & WAXING

    kmrmom42 replied to barkley's topic in Ob/Gyn

    An all female OB/GYN practice that I know of started offering laser hair removal several years back. I always assumed that this was in response to the popularity and less than comfortable results of...

  11. TLC Special Duggar Family

    kmrmom42 replied to alphafe's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Thanks for the links MitchsMom.......scary. I am not impressed. I think the closer you look at this situation the more offensive it gets...(at least to me). P.S. Is that your little guy in your icon?...

  12. SCARY drug exp post C-Sec - DROPERIDOL

    kmrmom42 replied to alphafe's topic in Ob/Gyn

    We have to honor the mysterious ways all of our babies come into this world, don't you think?

  13. SCARY drug exp post C-Sec - DROPERIDOL

    kmrmom42 replied to alphafe's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Barbara, I can really relate to what you are saying. I am a childbirth educator (and L & D nurse) and I had my cesarean after I got to 5 cm. when they realized that my 9lb 14oz dtr was a footling...

    kmrmom42 replied to heatherbless's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks I am not sure if mine does (Brighthouse Networks). However, I decided to just open a new folder in the html files of my website and place them there. I just used my first one successfully in a...

    Swumpgas, not only was I not yawning I was interested in every word of your cogent post.This has been an utterly fascinating thread and I have learned much by reading your post as well as many of the...

  18. dress codes

    kmrmom42 replied to granny7's topic in Operating Room

    Canvas shoes in the OR? How impractical! I can't imagine having to show someone my shoes to get approval to wear them. Sometimes I wonder about my choice of profession....what on earth was I...

  19. Vaginal exams: Forcing finger through cervix?

    kmrmom42 replied to keeper's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I would guess that you probably already know the answer to your question since you have already had 4 children and you work with a midwife. This is not a typical exam and from what you say the nurse...

  20. dress codes

    kmrmom42 replied to granny7's topic in Operating Room

    I am curious Granny, do you know the rationale behind the edict for leather shoes? It seems to me that leather is far more of an infection control risk, especially in the OR or OB than synthetic shoes...

  21. Charlotte Hungerford Hospital - NEED INFO!

    kmrmom42 replied to Town & Country's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    I used to live right near Charlotte Hungerford but I worked about 15 miles away at Bristol Hospital. I did some of my rotations as a SN there and I had my third child there. Not a bad place for a...

    kmrmom42 replied to burger914's topic in Ob/Gyn

  24. Are male nurses welcome in hospitals ?

    kmrmom42 replied to kunal's topic in Texas Nursing

    And I was just helping him see another side of things...that is what these boards are all about!
