You could always go to Pima, and they have a good scholarship program called FAFSA http://www.fafsa.org . Just thought that i would let you know!! :) Love Always, Dream2bANeoNurs

I want to be a nicu nurse but my mom and stepmom dont think i could handle it they say id be better off in the picu! But i dont know, i love the babys! I understand what the differnce is but id rather be in the nicu! Which do you think would be better?!? Thanks, Dream2baneonurs

i originally wanted to be a neonatal nurse, but lately ive been looking into the different positions in neonatology, and i havent made up my mind yet but im most likely going to stick with being the nurse! i'd like to spend more time with the babies! it kinda seems a bit to much for me to be the big doc! thanks for the info though! its great that we can talk to you guys about this stuff, its nice to have you around when we have questions! i look forward to having this site around while im in school!! thanks! love always, heidi

From me to you...im in high school right now too...My all time dream is to be a neonatologist and you have to have 14 years of school (or more)... High school...4 years College degree...usually 4 years Medical school...4 years Pediatric internship and residency...3 years Neonatology fellowship...3 years So i got along way to go and things will get even better with the NICU by then! Maybe they'll find more cures for more things and have even better medical machines than we do now!! But if its helpfull at all...i got most of my info from http://www.Neonatology.org Its a really good site! Has alot of good info! And good resources!! But anyways..well im glad im not the only one that cares about our kids these days!! Good choice!! Talk to you later..you can email me anytime at [email protected], i could probly anwser alot of questions you have! Love Always, Heidi;)

Email me at: Im 15 and im a Sophomore in High school right now and im going to start my pre reqs for nursing next year (atleast i hope so), and i want to eventually become a neo nurse! I was just wanting to ask if any of you neo nurses get emotional or get attached to your patients, no one believes that i can or want to do this kind of nursing because i love babies, and they dont think i would be able to handle it, emotionally. I was just wondering if it is hard for you to handle when you loose a litl' one?? Thanks, Dream2baneonurs:confused:
