    Oddest things found in a patient!

    BabyRN2Be replied to Antikigirl's topic in General Nursing

    I just don't know why I found this one so funny. I'm wondering if they physician thought that the pt had that especially engraved on the side. My SIL sold Pampered Chef at one time. Don't know if I'll...

    Silent birth? Anyone see one?

    BabyRN2Be replied to Sis123's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I've seen hypnobirthing work as a sort of "silent birth" (not a lot of yelling) and Christian Scientists are actually quite quiet in birth. But this "Silent Birth" idea, I think it was a little...

    Never say "QUIET"

    BabyRN2Be replied to piezo-electricite's topic in Emergency

    We had been having some construction on our floor and daily we were treated to the sounds of hammers banging along with some other heavy construction. One day, I came up to the desk, and without...

    Doula Thoughts on L&D (long)

    BabyRN2Be replied to futureTMA's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I haven't been reading for a day and I just wanted to mention something. I am a little bit bothered that my comments about Stephanie were taken off this board. I do stand by what I say, but there is...

    Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy

    BabyRN2Be replied to Saoudishabiba's topic in General Nursing

    I'm just curious, how is this different from a patient who is drug seeking rather than Munchausen's syndrome? Or is it fair to say that many drug seekers are possibly Munchausen's and may need...

    Doula

    BabyRN2Be replied to Toothbrushx2's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I'm a doula as well. I work birth and postpartum. I'm also trained as a certified breast feeding educator. I've enjoyed that very much because I love to teach.

    Doula Thoughts on L&D (long)

    BabyRN2Be replied to futureTMA's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Another comment: I've been on both sides of the fence. Not as an RN per se, but I've been raised in a strong medical community. My mother was an RN, I have many friends who are RN's, and I am a CNA....

    I have been asked to be a Doula!

    BabyRN2Be replied to PrincessRN's topic in Ob/Gyn

    One of the most important things to do is spend time with her, sit down and talk about all the she would want in her ideal birth. Keep in mind the word ideal: find out what she wants, but also state...

    Doula Thoughts on L&D (long)

    BabyRN2Be replied to futureTMA's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Just for those who asked: I personally know Stephanie Soderblom. She has been a doula for many years and she is training to be a midwife (CPM). I don't believe that she's had any training on the...

    800lbs plus man

    BabyRN2Be replied to ak47m203's topic in General Nursing

    Just for the record, there were two different programs. One was about someone who lost 400 lbs. I didn't see that one so I don't know what the long term outcome was for this man. There was a show...

    Still Breastfeeding

    BabyRN2Be replied to tigress_8207's topic in General Nursing

    It is possible to tandem nurse two children and expecting another baby is not necessarily a reason to stop nursing the older child. However, in your case your son was 3 1/2 and I think that's a...

    Disappointed with new job

    BabyRN2Be replied to medicrnohio's topic in General Nursing

    If it helps, you're not the only one who feels this way. I've read several threads in the ER nursing forum about nurses who either worked ER before nursing school or worked it during nursing school...

    BNE Declaratory Order Help!

    BabyRN2Be replied to mmd's topic in General Nursing

    2 Questions for you: Who told you that you needed to file a declaratory order? Have you talked to your state BON yet? I do recommend the advice that others have given you: Seek advice from a lawyer....

    What do patients say that irks you?

    BabyRN2Be replied to NurseforPreggers's topic in Ob/Gyn

    This is a new one for me... what is a "love stitch?" If it's what I'm thinking it is, ICK! Someone care to enlighten me on this one? :) ETA: I think I got my answer about the "love stitch." And I...

    Preterm and Very Preterm babies

    BabyRN2Be replied to deaners's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Hi Dean! Wow! You're story sounds so incredible. It's so wonderful that you didn't have any cognitive or physical disabilities which so often happens with preterm babies. Although I don't have any...

    What was the MOST ridiculous thing a patient came to the ER for?

    BabyRN2Be replied to JUSTYSMOM's topic in Emergency

    Hope he had a callback feature on his phone. Wonder how he would explain the missed phone call... especially if it was someone like his boss.

    Has this happened to anyone else?

    BabyRN2Be replied to pnurseuwm's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Is this a hospital policy or a state policy? I've never heard of this before. Everyone who fails the NCLEX just takes it again (or most people do). I haven't heard of someone needing to take and pass...

    Failed Abortions

    BabyRN2Be replied to Kalico's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    Yeah, WND isn't exactly the New York Times. WND lost a lot of my respect when they stated outlandish instances in the Terri Shiavo case. There are a lot of holes in the story, pieces are missing and...

    "Never trust a 35 weeker"

    BabyRN2Be replied to prmenrs's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    Thanks for the explanation prmenrs. I've seen that in your sig and wondered about it. I kind of had the idea of what you were talking about, but it helps to know in detail what you meant by "never...

    Nursing in Oklahoma around Tulsa

    BabyRN2Be replied to Town & Country's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    I know that this post is close to 2 months old, but I'll answer it anyhow. In my opinion, I'd take Hillcrest over Tulsa Regional. Tulsa Regional does not seem to be doing well as a hospital. Hillcrest...

    A patient pulled a knife on me today.

    BabyRN2Be replied to LoriAlabamaRN's topic in General Nursing

    Oh wow... *hugs* from me, and I hope that you are able to take care of yourself. I'm so sorry this happened to you, I'm glad that you were able to get the knife away from him. Here's hoping that he'll...

    TCC Anyone?

    BabyRN2Be replied to OURN83's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    I forgot to mention, TCC isn't the only game for nursing in town. There is Langston University affiliated with OSU. You can get your pre-reqs there and you don't have the parking problems that Metro...

    TCC Anyone?

    BabyRN2Be replied to OURN83's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    Hi prissy pixie... I got a AS in Psychology at TCC and I've taken all of these classes except Chem. Do you know who the instructors are? Unfortunately, as you know all the nursing classes are at...
