I am curious as to how your situation worked out-starting a job at 6 months pregnant. I am graduating with my BSN in December and am interviewing for jobs. My baby is due in March, but I am hoping to work up until that time and come back afterwards. I really don't know whether to bring this up at the interview or not. Can you give me any advice after going through all of this yourself? Was your employer understanding when you did finally tell them?

Thanks so much for the info on Truman Medical Center. Would you send me the contact info for the nurse recruiter there? It sounds like a great place to work..if the nurses are willing to teach that's a big plus! I live in New Mexico now and work as a Tech on the Telemetry floor so I am hoping this experience will help me find a job in Kansas-plus I do speak Spanish. If I can't find anything in KC then I will probably stay here and get a year of experience and then move back. I'm missing the Kansas fall right now because it is still so hot in New Mexico!

I will be graduating this December with my BSN and would like to move back to the Kansas City or Lawrence area. Does anyone know if any hospitals are currently hiring new grads? If so which ones? I'm getting worried with all the rumors going around about hiring freezes. I would like to work at KU med or St. Luke's because they have great reputations but don't know if they would hire me right out of school. My preceptorship this fall will either be in ER or NICU. Thank you!
