  1. Co-sleeping?

    ayndim replied to amber1142's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Why yes I am. Monkeys aren't told by others that bf a toddler is weird. From them we can determine how long breastfeeding would occur without societal influences. I don't put it in a cup because...

  2. Co-sleeping?

    ayndim replied to amber1142's topic in Ob/Gyn

    My thought is why would I rush my child off of human milk to put them on the milk of a cow. There is nothing wrong with breastfeeding a 3 year old. The breast is not a bottle. I am taking your...

  3. Co-sleeping?

    ayndim replied to amber1142's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I co-slept with my babies from the time we were in the hospital. My boys are circed and I am still breastfeeding my youngest who will be 2 in September. I wish I were the nut and granola type, then...

  4. Co-sleeping?

    ayndim replied to amber1142's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I seriously doubt someone could roll over on two separate occasions and kill 3 children with out being seriously impaired. How big was she that she could roll over onto two babies. I would have to...

  5. How long is too long? re: 2nd stage of labor

    ayndim replied to pebbles1977's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I pushed for over 5 hours with no drugs. My daughter was facing the wrong way. I had a CNM and didn't find it bad at all. Of course, my ctx were not close either and also weren't very painful. I...

  6. Nurse specialist

    ayndim posted a topic in International Nursing

    What exactly is a nurse specialist? Is there an equivalent in the US? (Been looking at the NHS pay guide) Also, it seems useless to get a MSN in midwifery here in the US (average cost about $20,000)...

  7. "Are you saved?" How do YOU deal with these types of questions

    ayndim replied to porterwoman's topic in General Nursing

    I have never got that either. And while I like my Protestant neighbors and like my kid's playing with theirs, as they have all been taught Christian morals -- I am tired of Protestants trying to...

    ayndim replied to ktwlpn's topic in General Nursing

    Of all the pics and videos shown, why are there no recent ones? Like in the last year or from earlier this

  9. Bush Administration Proposes Cut in Veteran Benefits

    ayndim replied to barefootlady's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    The VA will provide service to all vets who did not get dishonorably discharged -- providing their are funds/space available. There is a list of the priorities on the VA website. I agree with Kevin....

    ayndim replied to ktwlpn's topic in General Nursing

    Could it be in the early 90's he still had hope that she might

  11. Artificial feeding-Terri Schiavo

    ayndim replied to ktwlpn's topic in General Nursing

    Bulimics come in normal and above normal weights. It is very hard for anyone to know if someone is bulimic. They are experts at hiding it and because their weight is usually falls in the normal...

  12. Artificial feeding-Terri Schiavo

    ayndim replied to ktwlpn's topic in General Nursing

    But she wasn't in good health was she? She was a bulimic and potassium imbalance is a consequence. Many anorexics and bulimics die of heart

  13. Artificial feeding-Terri Schiavo

    ayndim replied to ktwlpn's topic in General Nursing

    If the husband has behaved so horribly why have the courts not taken away his right to make medical decisions? If he had something to do with her condition why have the courts allowed him to remain...

  15. Frontier Midwifery School

    ayndim replied to Khadijah2's topic in General Nursing

    Is the master's now regionally accreditated? I would love to go there and not have to go for 3 weeks to Case. This is the school that is at he top of my list. Love the fact that is community based....

  16. When circ's go bad...

    ayndim replied to newgrad2005's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Thanks. I was curious as I have two uncirced boys, ages 3 and 17 months. My 3 year old pulls his foreskin back (and stretches it forward like its made of elastic :rotfl: ) Thankfully I haven't had...

  17. Why do we need the docs for delivery?

    ayndim replied to ER1010's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Funny how they say breech are abnormal for a birthing center. I don't think most think you could even consider it because here it is usually an automatic c-section. Makes me wonder if women birth...

  18. When circ's go bad...

    ayndim replied to newgrad2005's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Just curious but was that back when drs were telling moms to pull the foreskin back little by little from when they were infants. I worry about some idiot changing my little one's diaper and pulling...

  19. Why do RN's with ASN and BSN make the same?

    ayndim replied to cancergirl's topic in General Nursing

    Oh I don't plan on doing it that way. But in my area most seem to pay upfront for ADN to BSN. One hospital actually has a hospital come to the hospitals classroom for the BSN. That is our only...

  20. Why do RN's with ASN and BSN make the same?

    ayndim replied to cancergirl's topic in General Nursing

    i plan on getting my masters eventually. not for the pay but because i want to be a cnm and it is required. if i were young and eligible for grants i might to the bsn as the first stop. but i am...

  21. Why do we need the docs for delivery?

    ayndim replied to ER1010's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Nurse do deliver babies. They are called Nurse-Midwives You probably knew that! But the training is anything but minimal. It is a two year Master's program. I don't think that every baby...

  22. Why do RN's with ASN and BSN make the same?

    ayndim replied to cancergirl's topic in General Nursing

    This is how I think employers look at it. First, there is no difference in their job duties. Employers want to pay as little as possible. And not all employers in other fields pay more for higher...

  23. Why do we need the docs for delivery?

    ayndim replied to ER1010's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I know that the drs that are at the ob/cnm practice I go to have the same mentality towards childbirth as the mw's. However, there are some bad ones out there. I think handwashing (or lack of it)...

  24. Why do we need the docs for delivery?

    ayndim replied to ER1010's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Hopefully I won't loose my nerve and will be adding one more MW to the ranks. I thought I read a study that CNM and DE MW's were less likely to be sued by pts even when something goes wrong. Anyone...

    ayndim replied to newgrad2005's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Personally, I could care less what an adult male does do his member, barring my own hubby of course. He can cut it off if he wants (just not my hubby :chuckle ). He is an adult and has every right...
