    VBAC for a Lady Who Has Had 2 Previous C-sections

    BabyRN2Be posted a topic in Ob/Gyn

    I'm writing this to get a feel of what other doctors are doing in other areas about VBACS. I'm a doula at a medium-sized city in the central US. I had a client call me and asked me if I could be her...

    Interview at Fertility Clinic

    BabyRN2Be replied to kfarinato's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Oh, I'm really sorry as I was really hoping that you'd get the job! And it is a shame that they didn't say that they wanted a certain number of years of experience. But hey, it sounds like they at...

    What are my right's?

    BabyRN2Be replied to Misstamzin's topic in General Nursing

    The way that it works is that if you were hired for the night shift, that's the shift you work. Talk to management if you are interested in another shift, but I agree with the others in that you...

    VBAC for a Lady Who Has Had 2 Previous C-sections

    BabyRN2Be replied to BabyRN2Be's topic in Ob/Gyn

    The fact that she's never labored before is a problem in the doc's eyes around here. They will only do a VBAC if a) she's had a vag birth once before (ie - labored) or b) will do a VBAC after one...

    VBAC for a Lady Who Has Had 2 Previous C-sections

    BabyRN2Be replied to BabyRN2Be's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Yes, I agree with you and I would help this client, but I'm not a doctor or a midwife. I guess my question is this done in hospitals on a routine basis. Most of the people on this website are nurses,...

    OBs doing unnecessary C-Sections and inductions

    BabyRN2Be replied to a_wallace4's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Great eye-opening documentary! I highly recommend it... I'm a doula in a medium size city in the midwest. Recently I had a lady call me to ask if I could help her with a VBAC. I said yes, that I'd...

    Interview at Fertility Clinic

    BabyRN2Be replied to kfarinato's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I know this post was from a little more than a month ago, but I've been thinking about you and I wondered how your interview went. Any word? I've been sending a lot of positive vibes out and hope you...

    My Aching Feet

    BabyRN2Be replied to RN <><'s topic in Emergency

    About 2 or 3 years ago, one of the latest and greatest inventions along the lines of nursing shoes were the Z-Coil shoes. They were white and the coil on the heel consisted of a spring. I had heard...

    BabyRN2Be replied to Saint637's topic in Psychiatric

    Out of interest I do read this forum from time to time as I do have a degree in pysch which may help one day if I get into this branch of nursing. I just wanted to say that on AllNurses they do have...

    Are you kidding?

    BabyRN2Be replied to what2donow's topic in General Nursing

    I'm thinking that it was a typo as well. To say that a place wants 23 years of experience, well, that's sort of an odd number and I'm thinking that a mistake was

    Interview at Fertility Clinic

    BabyRN2Be replied to kfarinato's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Seth, excellent suggestions. I forgot to mention ASRM (American Society for Reproductive Medicine) as a source. You also may want to read up on the following, at least know what it's basically about:...

    Interview at Fertility Clinic

    BabyRN2Be replied to kfarinato's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I'm not a nurse, but as a fertility patient myself (as well as working in the childbirth area for 12 years), it's best to refer to the place you are interviewing as a "fertility" clinic rather than...

    Does Death Have A Smell?

    BabyRN2Be replied to AngelfireRN's topic in General Nursing

    I have very limited experience with this. Once I was in the hospital with a head injury and was placed in a room with a patient who was actively dying. A very sweet relative of hers was talking to us,...

    New DON is Unprofessional

    BabyRN2Be replied to skittlebear's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Oh wow, this is sooo not right. I don't know about other places, but you can't work in HR and be related to any employee. This is true at my husband's place of employment... ie, I couldn't work in HR...

    Is this school worht it???

    BabyRN2Be replied to xLovelyMakeupx's topic in LPN to RN

    This sound an awful lot like Platt College. There are several threads on here about Platt and I believe that they are a place to be avoided. If a place has no waiting list, that might be a red flag....

    "Twins By Surprise"

    BabyRN2Be replied to krltdy's topic in General Nursing

    DeLana - I don't know if you happened to see the episode (forgive me if you did ), this was the type of woman who was going to do it HER WAY. Even if she knew she was going to have twins, even breech...

    NP discusses MJ on national TV ????

    BabyRN2Be replied to Misslady113's topic in General Nursing

    I totally agree with this, 100%. Also include in the list aging star looking-for-that-last-15-minutes-of-fame Lou Ferrigno. Really makes me sick. All these people who claimed to "know" him a little...

    "Twins By Surprise"

    BabyRN2Be replied to krltdy's topic in General Nursing

    I guess we'll never know the answer to the multimillion dollar question: Why did she not want to have a midwife there in the first place? That's what I'm wanting to know. She taking the lives of...

    "Twins By Surprise"

    BabyRN2Be replied to krltdy's topic in General Nursing

    Seriously, things don't go anymore "wrong" than they did when the majority of babies were born at home just a few centuries ago. I'm sure that she was aware of all the risks of having an unassisted...

    Pregnancy Denial-- a real psychological disorder?

    BabyRN2Be replied to FireStarterRN's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I've actually seen this happen before, but mostly with teens and some early 20's. They've convinced themselves that they are not pregnant and won't have any symptoms. They won't even show, even those...

    Non-Urgent Emergency Patient Payment Responsibilties

    BabyRN2Be replied to EmergencyLoveRN's topic in Emergency

    Wow, the owner must be pretty cheap. They don't want to be "taken" by those who don't want to pay or present with false ID to avoid paying, yet they don't want to hire one clerk at ~$8/hr (around here...
