    Lying to your patient???

    Thanks for clearing that up Trauma! And I should have thought "weeks" as there aren't too many medical people who go by strictly months anymore. Wow, I'm sorry for the baby, and I'm even more sorry...

    Lying to your patient???

    Yeah, Tazzi, that's why I'm asking. It wasn't clear from the post whether the baby was delivered at 34 weeks and didn't make it, or they guessed that she was 3-4 months pregnant, didn't hear heart...

    Lying to your patient???

    There's a few things I just wanted to get clarified so I have a more accurate picture. In the original post it was stated that she was "34 months" pregnant. I'm really not trying to be flip, but was...

    Dental Assistants Pushing Propofol etc...

    The dental assistants at my office don't even do nitrous without a physician present. Sounds pretty scary to me and I wouldn't put my life into hands like that. No

    Driving through Hulbert

    Hulbert has always been bad. It would almost be urban legend if it hadn't happened to our church group going to the Illinois River for canoeing. Another church group got stopped both coming and going...
  6. Hello everyone! I have missed you all, and I wanted to let you know what's been going on in my life and how this will affect my nursing career. Last fall, I was working on getting a job to pay for...

    Do You Have Any Favorite OB Myths?

    There is something to this - it's called the Shettles' method and while it's rate of success is a little low at 78% (for those trying to achieve a certain gender), it does work for some. I just wanted...

    the test results are in...

    Ohhh! YAAAY! A BIG congrats to you, Lana!! I've been thinking about you as I know this is about the time you'd pass the boards!! I am truly, truly happy for you!

    What's Your Best Nursing Ghost Story?

    Aryman, Thank you for explaining it in more detail! That's the same one that I was thinking about. I saw it explained on something iike the Discovery Channel and found the whole story to be incredibly...

    What's Your Best Nursing Ghost Story?

    Not to steal anyone's thunder, but is this the one about the two medical workers who went down to medical records (?) in the basement, and when they got off the elevator they came across a field...

    Tiniest baby links

    Here's another one I found reading the news this morning. Don't know how to add it to the list so if I can, I'll add it here. MIAMI- A premature baby that doctors say spent less time in the womb than...

    Voluntary C-Sections?

    If you talk with your doctor, s/he might come up with a reason for a c/s which pleases that insurance, if this happens you request can be easily

    OB Alert in Oklahoma

    I don't know if this will help, but I found it in my timesheet yesterday and I just wanted to pass this on. Anything to keep babies safe. I know my information is a little sketchy, but I could find...

    Hillcrest anyone?

    I would have to say that the Women's Center is pretty nice to work at. However, it is the newer, more up to date part of the hospital. I work as a doula in L&D and Cuddler in the NICU. There's...

    Adoption option?

    HappyNurse, Just out of curiosity, do you ask everyone this or is this based on marital status? I know that there are couples who are surrogate parents as well as others who are single parents by...

    I finally passed on my 4th try!!!

    Congratulations on a job very well done! I'll bet that you were very relieved when your friend told you had passed.
  17. Maybe this would be an instance in which a good PP doula would be of service. I can't remember if it was stated that this was her first child or not, but maybe she was scared of what was ahead and she...

    Watchchild - again

    I did a google search on WatchChild. I figured it was a charting system before I did so. Oddly enough I did find an article from a business journal saying that sales of the software have been halted...
  19. While I have seen some problems with infants whose moms had an epidural for a long period of time (18 hours), I don't know what was in the epidural mix although I believe it could be fentanyl. These...

    Watchchild - again

    If I may ask, what is "Childwatch"? Of course I don't do charting, but I'm

    Adoption option?

    I agree with MC, that giving up a baby at the age of 15 shows great maturity. But I know what the OP means. It does seem that a lot of girls (13-16) would rather keep their babies than give it up for...

    feel guilty not contributing

    I REALLY hate to say this, but maybe this nurse is reaping her own bad karma. Not that I necessarily believe in that, but if I did, this might be a good example. However, I don't know details of what...

    Causing financial damage at work (by accident)

    I agree with Marie. That is kind of ironic though. That one had me laughing, too. This thread reminds me of the time that I was working as a water aerobic instructor and one of the lifeguards wanted...
  24. Congratulations! That's an awesome achievement. Here's to you doing well on the "little quiz".
