    Hee hee, your name says it all. My mom worked there for many years on 5West. I'll be starting school in spring '05, I currently work as a doula at the one just down the street from wishingmary, the...

    Tornado alley

    BabyRN2Be replied to Blackcat99's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    It's very interesting for a "weather geek" like me - I've dated a meteorologist before, and it's very busy in spring! In the OKC area, they seem to receive a few more tornadoes, but they seem to hit...

    Nursing in Oklahoma around Tulsa

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

    Everything that Wishingmary said about Tulsa is true. The climate is moderate, we have hot summers (many days in the 90's and above 100 - I don't like the heat), and our winters have some snow - most...

    Langston or OU

    BabyRN2Be replied to Asiancutie's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    I'm sorry, I forgot to mention, Langston at Tulsa, not Langston, Oklahoma. This is a 5% difference in the pass rates of the NCLEX between the 2 schools, in favor of

    Langston or OU

    BabyRN2Be replied to Asiancutie's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    I've applied to Langston, but I hear that OU has a much higher pass rate on the NCLEX. I'm just starting out, but from what I've heard, OU's program is very hard to get into. I'm still keeping my...

    Micro Preemies

    BabyRN2Be posted a topic in NICU, Neonatal

    At what point is a baby considered a micro preemie? From what point to what point? I take it that it's the baby's weight in

    Can this be true

    BabyRN2Be replied to jacobsmum's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    I read Kellie Christine's website and I had to just stop reading. So many parents hear about the occasional baby born at 22 weeks and survives, but at what expense? I'm not talking about financial,...

    BabyRN2Be replied to MQ Edna's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    First of all, CONGRATULATIONS!!:balloons: I'm sure that you will do just fine. In my opinion, I believe you would come off better if you asked the questions you have instead of appearing to be a...

    Stupid Student Question on C-Sections and Nursing Specialty

    BabyRN2Be replied to KristinWW's topic in Ob/Gyn

    At our hospital, it's OB staff as well. OB has it's own surgical area, staffed by OB nurses. Normally, it their patient needs a c/s, they usually are the ones who assist in the section depending on...

    DEA Attempting to Reclassify Hydrocodone

    BabyRN2Be replied to PA-C in Texas's topic in Emergency

    Betcha we probably wouldn't have as much problem with the abuse of Oxycontin if the news media outlets hadn't reported about it. I think the real abuse problem possibly started after reports of how...

    Pre-employment Drug Screen and Adult ADD

    BabyRN2Be replied to BabyRN2Be's topic in General Nursing

    Hey Rhiannon! Thanks for your help! I was also thinking about doing something like you mentioned, if I could afford to do it for a few days. I'll see when the time comes if it's possible for me to not...

    Planned Parenthood and nursing

    BabyRN2Be replied to rhiannonwolf's topic in General Nursing

    I don't see how volunteering (which really looks great on a resume wherever you apply - with the exception of the National Right to Life ) could be the "kiss of death." As Deb said, they provide...

    How about a NCLEX only area on this BB??

    BabyRN2Be replied to RN_2_B_5/2004's topic in First Year After Licensure

    That's really great that there will be an NCLEX forum. That's going to be very helpful for those about to take the NCLEX, we can exchange study guides, and encourage each other as we are about to take...

    Failing the NCLEX at 77 Questions

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

    I REALLY hate this CAT system of test taking. Since the questions increase in difficulty and become so hard, it seems like everyone coming out of the test feels that he or she has failed! That's so...

    Ever had to personally pay out on lawsuit by being the RN?

    BabyRN2Be replied to all4babies's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I'd buy the malpractice insurance. Really. It's not much for the peace of mind. I'd probably be awake nights if I didn't have

    Midwives: where do you work?

    BabyRN2Be replied to Steph in Boston's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Youngest labor patient?

    BabyRN2Be replied to RNLaborNurse4U's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I know this has nothing to do with the original thread title, but this is the avenue I would take if I had kids. I know this is controversial, but around here the private schools are the dumping...

    Do You Have Any Favorite OB Myths?

    Baby switches

    BabyRN2Be replied to gwk's topic in Ob/Gyn

    We have the same thing, called the "Halo System." If the wrong baby goes to wrong mom, an alarm will sound (mom is wearing the other sensor). If a baby is kidnapped or if someone tries to remove the...

    My best friend in nursing school was ordered to terminally sedate a stroke patient.

    BabyRN2Be replied to Love767's topic in General Nursing

    Babinurse, If you are referring to my post, I didn't call love767 a moron, not in the least bit. I was stating my opinion that I thought it might be a bogus situation. It was a concern of mind, and...

    Pre-employment Drug Screen and Adult ADD

    BabyRN2Be replied to BabyRN2Be's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks kids-r-fun for your information! That's another reason why I didn't go with Strattera because you have to take it everyday and from what I understand, you have to wait a few weeks for it to...

    Pre-employment Drug Screen and Adult ADD

    BabyRN2Be replied to BabyRN2Be's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks! I know about Strattera, and I asked my NP about it and she said that in my case it may not take care of all the symptoms, and that I might need some stimulant backup. I'm also curious, do the...

    Just because I'm in uniform does not make me fair game

    BabyRN2Be replied to aurora_borealis's topic in General Nursing

    Very good point. Judging from another post that you've made, I'm very confident that you're going into nursing for all the right reasons. :) (It was the post about how you handled a dying
