  1. VBAC: new insights

    I've had two wonderful VBACs, one w/an epi (the first) and one without. VBACs are
  2. Volunteering......Good or Bad??

    I volunteer now. It won't help me get into school, but hopefully it'll help me with connections for when I graduate.
  3. Spring 2010 A&P 2

    I got my lab book today from the bookstore, so now I'll be preparing note cards for lab for the next 2 weeks (well, I guess it's less than two weeks now). It is making me excited to start classes...
  4. A & P 1&2

    At our school, there is a class called Body Structure and Function. It is not A&P, those are separated into A&PI and II. But, yes to the flash cards. :) I too printed on card stock and then...
  5. I get so excited at the beginning of the semester

    I'm excited as well. I took 15 credits last semester and think I'm taking 17 this semester, though I keep thinking I might be crazy and that I should drop one course and take it this summer when I...
  6. At my school, you can apply when you finish your pre-reqs. But there's pretty much no chance of getting in until you've finished your core classes (the classes the college says that you actually take...
  7. Pre-Pre-Nursing: Tips before starting school?

    I'd encourage you to start with the placement test (the one at our college was free, btw). Once you have that, you'll know where you need to start for math and English. Sign up for one class online...
  8. Help! Med Term! So lost...

    :) I'd keep it then.
  9. Vaccinations

    I had to have the MMR booster in high school because I was no longer
  10. You have to research the school that you're interested in. Some schools only allow you to retake a class so many times for a higher
  11. Help! Med Term! So lost...

    What are you going to take in its place if you don't take it to maintain your full time status? Personally, I'd take things that will help you in nursing school or things that are required before you...
  12. Start nursing school with a newborn at home?

    I wouldn't purposely go about having a baby right before starting nursing school, but if it happened, well it happens. That said, when I went back to school to start my pre-reqs, my son was about 8...
  13. Flu shots

    Funny how different places have different policies, I volunteer at a hospital and work with babies and it was only an
  14. Flu shots

    Can you ask if you can wear a mask? I don't like the flu shots
  15. HELP!!!! All the nursing nurses...

    ONCRN - I think it depends upon the arrangement - is the child in daycare? That would be super, super hard. If the child is at home and the mom is still responsible for care - it's a ton easier to...
  16. Vaccines and nursing school

    Yeah, you can have your titers drawn for some things. :) I was going to suggest your parents - my step mom gave me a copy of my shot records when I was getting ready to go away to school....
  17. Spring 2010 A&P 2

    dalsor - how daring of you to take both micro and a&p2. I'm too chicken, so I'm going to take it in the summer. I'll be finished with all my core classes after the summer. So far, I have a 4.0...
  18. Spring 2010 A&P 2

    Make liberal use of the kitchen timer. Set it for 15 minutes and then when it goes off, you'll either alert yourself that you have spaced out or you'll just reset it for another 15 minute
  19. Right now, I'm only focusing on one school. I'll have a one semester wait during which time I will focus on completely classes towards my bachelors. If it's longer than one semester of a wait, I...
  20. Undecided

    Does your school normally run classes in the summer? Would this delay you in the RN program? If not, I'd go for
  21. When Previewing Pre Nursing Students For Admission Into Nursing School

    Shouldn't that school be trying to teach her to read? What happens to her when she graduates and can't read to take the NCLEX? Can't read a
  22. Pain medication in Postpartum

    Also chiming in with personal experience... Witch hazel and the spray work out quite nicely. I had a c/s with my first and took something, maybe Percocet but I quit taking it less than a week PP and...
  23. LCCC - anyone attending?

    Well, Akron does have the UP with LCCC for nursing, so I would think that would be it. :) I'm sure it was overwhelming! Good luck to you this semester. BTW - how old are your little ones? I have a...
  24. LCCC - anyone attending?

    Oooh, interesting that we can enroll concurrently, that might be a pretty good option. :) I've been checking Akron, Kent and CSU and trying to figure out which classes to fill up my schedule with...
  25. LCCC - anyone attending?

    That's my reasoning for taking Micro over the summer too - I at least want a shot at the spring semester! I hope that I get in for the spring, if I have to sit around for a year I'll have completed so...
