I am a wife and mother of 4. I have 3 girls who are 8, 6, 3 and a son who is 1. I am soo excited and grateful to be able to do my passion which is L&D. One day I plan to go back for my MSN and DNP in Nurse-Midwifery and Women's Health.

I graduated in 09 and it was a year on the 8th that I received my license. I left the hospital with max 8 patients at night to do LTC and I went to a place that had one nurse for 42 residents. I was mortified but the other nurses were complaining to...
I want to become an L&D nurse and will be going back for my DNP but my MSN will be in Nurse-Midwifery/Women's Health. I worked in Med-Surg for a little under 6 months and wanted to go to L&D badly. The issue is that most places want you to ha...
