    In need of support for potential VBAC

    BabyRN2Be replied to Elenaster's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Yes! I also read this but can't remember for the life of me where I read it. I don't know if it was a baby magazine in my OB/GYN's office or not. Here's the online version of it, but I could have...

    In need of support for potential VBAC

    BabyRN2Be replied to Elenaster's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Deb covered it all in an earlier post. I do have one more suggestion for you. If you can, find a doula in your area who is EXPERIENCED in working with VBAC clients. They have additional resources for...

    12-Step Coercion

    BabyRN2Be replied to tommyperkins's topic in General Nursing

    A relative has been involved in AA and this person has stated that if you wanted, a door knob could be your higher power if you wish. Not necessarily a force in the universe. Since I'm not in AA, I'm...

    The loss of a doc

    BabyRN2Be replied to galenight's topic in General Nursing

    Galenight, I will be keeping you and everyone involved in my prayers. Several years ago in this city we had a doctor who was shot by his wife as he parked the car in the garage. He had been cheating...

    can you really tell the difference?

    BabyRN2Be replied to prinzessdy's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Really, there is no substitute for experience. Every birth is different, which makes L&D a challenging field. I would recommend that you get the experience first. Experience is one of the factors...

    Eat Before You Get Here!

    BabyRN2Be replied to NurseJacqui's topic in Emergency

    This reminds me of an incident which happened in the CICU waiting room when my dad had quintuple bypass surgery. This hospital had an awesome waiting room - if you could get there early enough to snag...

    Cashing checks at 5:30A.M.? I dunno... sounds a little suspicious to

    Granny Dumping

    BabyRN2Be replied to SWFlorida's topic in Emergency

    I also agree that the OP's doctor was unethical. Goodness, what a setup for a family who is not familiar with the healthcare system. Of course, this doc would not be responsible if social services was...

    Medicaid. Is it being abused?

    BabyRN2Be replied to SWFlorida's topic in Emergency

    It's really kind of ironic. We are talking about the Medicaid program and it's abuses, just to have the Google ads on some of these pages point us to places where we can get information on Medicaid. I...

    Do you like Minnesota?

    BabyRN2Be replied to sympathoadrenal's topic in General Nursing

    I currently live in Oklahoma, but if I had the choice I'd move to Minnesota in a heartbeat. I have a lot of family up there, and I did my doula training in Bloomington. It's an absolutely beautiful...

    Mayo

    BabyRN2Be replied to flibble's topic in General Nursing

    I have family in the Rochester area and I've had the opportunity to visit Mayo. Every nurse I met seemed to be pretty happy and enthusiasic about working there (St. Mary's). They must treat their...

    Tornado alley

    BabyRN2Be replied to Blackcat99's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    This past weekend was pretty bad. The storms all happened at night and we didn't get a chance to watch them. My bf's new home is proving to be a tornado magnet: He called me at 1:15A.M. Sunday from...

    Well, I'm in NE Oklahoma, so that would be a bit of a commute. :) Thank you for your

    Choices for Antiemetics in Prepartum Patients

    BabyRN2Be replied to kimrn96's topic in General Nursing

    Oh goodness, that is ridiculous! But I'm glad that you found something that helps

    Drug Seeker Antics and Dramas

    BabyRN2Be replied to SWFlorida's topic in Emergency

    Steph, Which Echo Heron book is it in? I do remember one of the books when a pt pronounced morphine, "Mopheen" (or something like that), but it didn't say it was a "pound of mopheen." Just curious,...

    I am a male L&D nurse

    BabyRN2Be replied to Dayray's topic in General Nursing

    Dayray, thank you for your insightful post. I would rather had a great RN than a lousy RN at my birth - gender has nothing to do with it. Birth is such a miraculous event, and it's a shame that men...

    Granny Dumping

    BabyRN2Be replied to SWFlorida's topic in Emergency

    As someone said before, this is a "pop drop" or "Positive tail-light sign." I do get concerned about some respite care sites though. We have one locally that advertises their "Respite Care" program at...

    Finally......ATT arrived...need encouragement

    BabyRN2Be replied to Nurseizme's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I'm glad that you received your ATT. Just go over everything you can get your hands on. I'm heard that they've added a lot of pharmacology to the test. Can you ask an instructor on what's best to do?...

    Tornado alley

    BabyRN2Be replied to Blackcat99's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    I was reminded of one more incident that was worse than my dad and brother watching a video instead of storm coverage. When the weather is bad, local stations will preempt national TV programs. They...

    Tornado alley

    BabyRN2Be replied to Blackcat99's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    Maybe you'll change your mind one day, and you and Blackcat99 (and anyone else) just come on down for a few days of tornado chasing! Really, I do understand why some people wouldn't want to do this....

    Surrogacy ? How do you feel about it?

    BabyRN2Be replied to IMTechnology's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I really don't have a problem with surrogacy. It's the gift of a miracle to someone who can't have a baby on her own. As long as lawyers are sought, a contract is worked out, everyone is on the same...

    Should nurses go back to wearing all white?

    BabyRN2Be replied to stbernardclub's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with everyone on this, that white is too impractical, it goes gray after a few washings... it doesn't fit in with today's nursing. I do agree with skanded though. It would help if staff would...
