  1. Strange Nursing Student

    TweetiePieRN replied to NurseKitty NC's topic in General Nursing

    I was not overgeneralizing...I was stating what I have seen with my own eyes. I guess I just haven't been fortunate enough to meet any homeschooled people like yourself.

  2. Strange Nursing Student

    TweetiePieRN replied to NurseKitty NC's topic in General Nursing

    Here is a portion of my post that you are referring to...."Honestly, I have never met a home-schooled student who was ever socially "normal". Not to say that they are not out in there and existing. I...

  3. Strange Nursing Student

    TweetiePieRN replied to NurseKitty NC's topic in General Nursing

    I totally agree!!!! Glad you said it first....thought I would get my head chewed off if I said it first LOL:rotfl: Just a thought...was that nursing student exclusively home schooled as a kid?...

  4. Why a C-Section?

    TweetiePieRN replied to edj02's topic in Ob/Gyn

    From my perspective...I was not concerned with tone down there. I ended up having a c-section...the lady parts issue didn't even dawn on me until my mom made a joke about it saying..."You'll have the...

    TweetiePieRN replied to zambezi's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Congratulations to you and your husband!:balloons: Being a mother is the most wonderful thing! I am so happy to hear that through all the negative things that have been happened to you, something...

  6. Puuuuuuulese!!

    TweetiePieRN replied to HeartsOpenWide's topic in General Nursing

    I work in oncology and we use the Fentanyl patch often. I learned that if you place it on skin and then put your WARM hand on top of it for 30-60 seconds it helps the "glue" adhere to the skin a lot...

  7. What do you think about egg donation?

    TweetiePieRN replied to sherichance's topic in General Nursing

    WHOAH! 60 something first time mom! I guess I can't complain when taking care of my baby exhausts

  8. What do you think about egg donation?

    TweetiePieRN replied to sherichance's topic in General Nursing

    If a woman gets pregnant using donated eggs...does insurance cover the procedure? I personally would not donate or receive. We had a tough time conceiving, but were able to do so naturally using an...

  9. STUDENTS: what do you want out of staff nurses? NURSES: vice versa....

    TweetiePieRN replied to HappyNurse2005's topic in General Nursing

    I enjoy working with students. HOWEVER, it is NOT a requirement that I work with one. It is not even in my job description. I do not work at a teaching hospital, but we still get some students. If I...

  10. Why a C-Section?

    TweetiePieRN replied to edj02's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I think its hilarious, being that I have dumbo ears!! Lighten up!! Do you actually think I run around making fun of little kids and others with deformities? I think you are being a little too...

  11. Why a C-Section?

    TweetiePieRN replied to edj02's topic in Ob/Gyn

    What is cruel....the procedure or the way I worded it??? Reread the post. I have a sense of

  12. STUDENTS: what do you want out of staff nurses? NURSES: vice versa....

    TweetiePieRN replied to HappyNurse2005's topic in General Nursing

    I love working with students. :) What do I want out of them? Basically someone who will communicate with me, eager to learn, a person who is not a Know it all, and curteous! I am 26 and a RN....

  13. taking students, precepting

    TweetiePieRN replied to Agnus's topic in General Nursing

    I love working with students, but time is the main problem. At my facility...management wants us out of there (charted and all) as soon as the shift ends. If we are sticking around charting late too...

  14. Why a C-Section?

    TweetiePieRN replied to edj02's topic in Ob/Gyn

    "lady partsl delivery is the natural way to go about childbirth". Fair enough. So if a person conceives out child unnaturally thru in-vitro or artificial insemination...should they not have kids. Lets...

  15. Why a C-Section?

    TweetiePieRN replied to edj02's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I would think that ears being pinned and removing an extra digit would be cosmetic. How does having big Dumbo ears interfere with ones daily life (other than teasing). I would think having an extra...

  16. Why a C-Section?

    TweetiePieRN replied to edj02's topic in Ob/Gyn

    My health plan totally covers all the pregnancy costs (didnt cost me a single dime for the entire time, also covers my BCP. I don't know if they mastectomies are covered under my coverage since I have...

  17. Why a C-Section?

    TweetiePieRN replied to edj02's topic in Ob/Gyn

    How about gastric bypasses, preventive mastectomy or breast reduction...those are elective. Should birth control pills not be covered, because those are elective. I don't NEED them, but I would prefer...

  18. Why a C-Section?

    TweetiePieRN replied to edj02's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Not exactly true....circumcision, ears being pinned back, removal of extra digits,

  19. Why a C-Section?

    TweetiePieRN replied to edj02's topic in Ob/Gyn

    BINGO!! Although, I may not agree with someone having an elective c-section "just because"...its not my choice, if its not happening to me. I believe in choice all the way around. I don't personally...

  20. Why a C-Section?

    TweetiePieRN replied to edj02's topic in Ob/Gyn

    YEp, this was my experience! My c-section experience, hospital stay was awesome! I had the greatest nurses. I did not have a lot of pain...no gas probs either! Being a nurse, I followed all the rules...

  22. What Kind of Health Benefits Do You Have?

    TweetiePieRN replied to land64shark's topic in General Nursing

    I live in California....I don't know if that has anything to do with the benefits situation. But, I can tell you that there are quite a few hospitals within miles (some even within walking distance!),...

  23. Why a C-Section?

    TweetiePieRN replied to edj02's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I totally agree with you here! When I had my baby in July, and was posting what issues I was having...you really helped me to get over the "guilt" and enjoy my baby, trust my instincts....I must say...
