  1. Pts paying for night nursery care??

    futurehomebirthcnm replied to mombabyRN96's topic in Ob/Gyn

    They're probably trying to do away with the nursery for mother-baby initiative. Some hospitals are doing away with nurseries altogether. And they _should_--a newborn baby should be within arm's reach...

  2. Getting a C in Nursing

    futurehomebirthcnm replied to Annachu512's topic in General Students

  9. A day in the life..."birth sitting"

    futurehomebirthcnm replied to Vannablack's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I've chosen to do the CNM route because I want the ability to have hospital privileges and be able to use things like pitocin, etc., for home-births--which in a lot of states DEMs are very restricted...
